    Losing my shit!

    You could try using a wheel qr through the axle if it's hollow to help hold the washer in place? It's a thought that just occurred to me, as I use the bolt and washer method.

    will a regular 28.6 stem (with shim) look crap on a 1" steerer?

    If it helps, I have lots of 1 inch spacers which are quite fat and help with the aesthetics of running a shimmer stem. Silver or black in the stash. May also have quite a long shim somewhere.

    Wanted Dynatech stem and bars

    Not wanting to jump the queue but I could be interested in the forks for my dyantech if the op doesn't. Mine is blue themed so would match everything a treat.

    Wanted High rise flat bar

    I had a quick drunken rummage, this was near the top of my bar stash. 650mm long. High rise. Black. A couple of marks that won't be hidden by controls and grips, but very tidy really. 31.8 clamp at stem.

    **** me sideways - internal Klein cabling routing!!!

    I've done this a few times on a GT sts and a Klein. My technique involves a cost hanger. Unwind the hook and straighten it all out. Bend it to shape that will allow you to push it through one end of the frame, and patience to get it to come through the other side. The cost hanger is almost...

    Rockshox Judy and SID hybrid

    I have a sid that I don't have a use for. What are you looking for exactly? The forks I have seems to be pretty decent. It's minus decals and black, came on a bike I bought for the frame.

    Seatstay bridge rusty

    I'd apply some of the kurust stuff that treats the rust and prevents further rusting too.

    Help identifying retro bike

    Some people shouldn't be allowed to lay their ham fisted hands on bikes. If it were mine, I'd remove the other half of the broken seat clamp very sympathetically, then see what was left in relation to the seat tube I'd then look at filing the top of the seat post as flat as possible without...

    Ht2 bvs work with 68 or 73mm shells, just uses spacers so pretty universal. 104bce rings are plentiful.as have been the standard for many years now, I doubt the supply will run out any time soon.
