I must take pics of the various ti frames I have. Maybe I'll get time over the weekend. Raleigh team ti, DBR Axis TT, GT Lightning, Lite speed obed FS, cove hummer, rock lobster team ti (why did they clear coat it??), on one ti 29er, Airborne Corsair. I think that's all.

I'm glad a simple solution presented itself and you managed to make the post good again. Simples.

All the middleburn cranks I've had, and I still have a few, have a lock ring which takes a tool that fits around the outside of the lock ring. A recent acquisition has a lock ring with Judy 2 pins to remove it. I'm guessing this isn't standard, right? I'm wondering how on earth I'm going to...

Can't help with a loose fitting tyre, that said I've not had any problems with tyres from schwalbe on any runs (racing Ralph, Nobby nic mostly, and Kevlar bead). I have always found continental tyres to be quite a tight fit and recently had a ball ache of a time fitting some schwalbe magic...

I have had a rummage and all of my frame ones have the shoulder. One set has a much smaller shoulder than the others - pic below.

These seem silly cheap. https://ebay.us/m/g8tOQJ

I've got a load of frame bosses kicking around either new or from where I've replaced steel with ti. I can have a look to see if any don't have the shoulder.

I may consider sorting with a blue controltech. It's a dark/deep blue ano, like the hope colour.

You after threaded or ahead? Can't remember if I still have a set of Marin rockstar forks in purple, may have sold them.

I didn't need to look to know it was granniegear. I suspect he takes offers at more realistic prices. He lurks on here, probably buys stuff we sell at hobbyist prices and straight on eBay for double or more.

One of the most comfy retro saddles I've run is a wtb sst2k.

I think I have the old Shimano tool in my toolbox and happy to lend it out. As said, if you remove the axle you should be able to remove the lock ring which is much bulkier than the original.

Raleigh did a frame like this iirc. Coyote ultralight looks similar but I don't think it is one. Most I've seen don't have the square profile monostay. Looks nice though. Something a bit different.

I have a box of odd xtr brakes. May have some of these discs attached. Also have 3 nos tune up kits which have these included.

Without the stress crack, that's a huge price for an average condition Judy. Maybe I'm generous but I've sold better for less, and in SL flavour and fax.
