Anyone?

Bit of a mongrel, but here goes. I have this Reflex ALX 6000 I'm considering putting up for sale. I've been out of the scene for so long I really don't know what this might fetch nowadays. The frame's this eccentric sort of lugged Easton aluminum tubed thing, internal cable routing, machined...

Oh to rediscover this thread after all these years! Like finding one's childhood :D Good times were had in the early 2010's, that's for sure! Fast forward, what, seven years?! Geez. Did a stint of work practise as an mtb guide on Tenerife and after graduation I spent a year guiding sea...

Hi fellow retrobikers! There's a beatiful Carrera e-stay that I'd want to get but unfortunately the seller is unable to box it up and ship it to Finland for me. I'd be over the moon if some kind soul could help me collect and ship it over (I've used parcel2go before and they've been cheap and...

Price drop

Hi lads! There's an interesting looking Kona up for sale locally. It appears to be a 92-93 Kona decalled Niihau. Having done some research I've found the Niihau was a Finnish special; higher end leftover frames were painted randomly and kitted out with mediocre kit and sold as Niihau, and...
