Apologies for not replying sooner but I'm afraid that work got in the way followed by life in general! What you're offering is extremely generous and the act of a gentleman. Thank you. I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth but before I accept such an offer I have to say that I...

Am I too late - I've wanted a pair of these for quite a while....... PMd in case!

Some years ago I had a creaky bike and it turned out to be the saddle. Put another saddle on and the creak was gone. Put creaky one on another bike and it creaked. GT85 spray onto saddle rails where they joined the saddle solved the problem!

I'd like the pedals if they're still available!

Great job on that Pine Mountain. Love the orange/black combination :cool:

I'll certainly be doing the same! Shame we have to wait so long.

PM sent your way a moment ago :)

Thanks Jake, that's great news. I'll get a PM off to you tomorrow morning. Cheers, Mike.

Hello there, I hope you're still doing these! I've got a front wheel that needs 32 x 290mm Sspim leader. I'll let you know the rear wheel spoke measurements later today when I get a couple of them off the wheel! Cheers, Mike.

I bought a very nice pair of pedals from Adrian who also karma'd a pair of toe clips and straps! Arrived quickly and excellently packed along with great comms. I've bought from him before and I certainly hope to buy from him again. Many thanks.

"I don't know Point brand but these are actually really nice pedals..........NOW £15" I don't know the Point brand either but I think I ought to find out about them! PM coming your way.

I don't know who manufactured it. It's possible that Trek made the part or as you say a small parts manufacturer. Perhaps Trek and Shimano had a conversation and Shimano made it!

I think Trek came up with the idea because they wanted to run the cables along the top tube but shimano didn't make top pull mechs yet. I've got one on my Trek 7000 and I got lucky recently and obtained a spare :cool:

I bought a GT saddle and a pair of DMR V8s from Billy which he delivered himself. Great comms and an extremely smooth transaction. I hope I have the pleasure of dealing with him again. Top Man :cool:

Good afternoon, Bit of a long shot but I'm wondering if the V8s and the GT saddle are still available. Best wishes, Mike.
