Hi All, Looking for some Fox forks to pair with my Turner. It’s an XL with a longish head tube so need c.230mm+ 1 1/8” steerer. If anyone’s got any that’d fit the bill, and that they’d consider parting with, please get in touch. Thank you, Matt

Hi Guys, I’ve wanted to own classic square-tubed Pace since the dawn of time. However I’m 6’5” so would need a 21” and despite keeping my eyes peeled, I’m yet to find one. If anyone out there happens to have one that’s collecting dust and that they’d be prepared to let go, please get in touch...

Hi Guys, Thought I'd share how my build is going... Nearly completed my first retro bike, a 1991 Litespeed Ocoee. Built it up over many years, nearly sold once due to a painful divorce, but happily I held onto it and have now almost finished it. Still need a NOS XTR M900 Rear Mech (hard to...
