Re: My old stinky 5. Had this for years and still going strong. Never bumped into another 1 so getting a little rare.

Re: How is that even possible on a freeride bike!! Astonishing!! The bit where he roles on his back down a drop off is insane

Thanks Adam. I'm sure we have all had that heart stopping moment seeing the shed door hanging off and wide open with a huge space where your pride and joy should be!! Really frustrating and I hope with the help of others I can find it again. There are some real scumbags out there and I refuse...

Could I please ask our wonderful community to watch out for a Boardman urban Team R bike in and around Derbyshire. My bike was stolen last night by some thieving lowlife degenerate in Chesterfield. The bike is quite rare and so I'm hoping should re appear on auction sites. This is the model...

Re: Interesting question: I have a shed full of new and retro bikes and for me it is unquestionably RETRO ALL THE WAY!! I am far more engaged, invloved and proud to sit between the wheels of a quality retro bike. They command more respect, for example: GT have made many fine modern bikes but...

Re: Thanks mate - its a nice frame considering it cost literally a few quid to a scrap dealer who was going to dispose of it. Is has been sprayed poorly, so im planning on stripping it back to bare alloy to see what it looks like - then the ultimate dilemna Flip it vs Build it up Looks like...

Re: I think you have cracked it :-) It's got to be the coyote easton ultralite - a dead ringer !! By the looks of it, I'm guessing a HT3. Amazing skills and help here - thanks to all for your help!!

Re: Sintesi is a good shout but I still can't find anything with a similar rear end. I think it's a very good quality mid 90s bike but god only knows what make it is!! Somebody must know or have one of these :-)

I like to think I know a thing or two about bikes but this one has stumped me. Bought this for literally a few quid as I suspected it could be a half decent frame. Can't say I have seen rear seatstays like that so have no idea what it could be. You will notice Bianchi stickers all over it but...

Re: I reckon Tektro - my mate used to have a pair of these on an old fire mountain - dead ringers!!

A thing of beauty my friend!! For me the square tubed Pace bikes are right up there with the most eye catching, iconic bikes ever made. I am a massive fan and one day will attempt a build like this!! I dig your choice of rigid forks over suspension here too. Top work mate!!

Re: Looks like a minter pal, love it ;-)

Personally I think these old Konas have THE best profile of any hardtail bike!! Awesome

Nice - that frame looks virtually as new, not seen those bear trap style pedals either for some time, kudos for that! What brakes are those? tektro or Avid?
