For sale is a 1996 Brodie Energy in 14". Great for a shorter rider! I originally bought this by mistake, not really knowing much about frames and sizing, and have no use for it now. Originally owned by @doctor-bond and then @LikeClockwork for a short while, this will be the third time this bike...

Bolt it in and hit the wrench with a hammer?

Make sure your turning it the right way! The threads are opposite on opposing sides. From google: "The common threading for bottom bracket shells is called “English.” The left-side cup is a right-hand thread direction, which tightens clockwise and removes counterclockwise. The right-side...

Spring in one of them is shot, but otherwise decent condition. Just pay shipping!

Here's where I got with it today. VO Happy stem came in the post and fitted it. I'm obviously still learning about bike fit and after looking at some photos of 90s mountain bikes built as bikepacking/touring rigs I noticed that hardly anyone has bars much higher than the saddle, and when they...

I'm gonna get a bar with some decent rise so I can adjust reach on the fly, and then I can always lift my stem 10-15mm or so with some spacers that I can just chuck in my bag. Got a ride through the peak district in 2 weeks so should be a good shakedown. :)

20 hole, straight pull. Bearings feel great. £30 shipped or £25 collection from North London. Cheers.

After something like this, no carbon: Cheers
