i have asked if they have the arms or bb but i'm not that hopeful tbh, trying to find out length you never know we might be able to sort something out

i don't know the length yet, hope to pick them up in the next few days? would a non-drive side are be difficult to get hold of?

no ned, i just have whats in the pic, sorry i'm really green but is the crank arm with no rings fitted a drive side as well ? that pennine is lovely, i have a holdsworth and i'd love it to look like that

Just bought these, thought they might be suitable for a classic roadbike project. What exactly have i bought?

Cheers all, going to have a look at the forks ya suggested. Mikee do you have any links to someone who sells those spinner x's :?:

I am thinking about putting some rigid forks on my sunn urge un if I can't find any sunn forks what would be my other options :?: Cheers

cheers fellas, think its going to definitely be the fire xc's :D unfortunately it won't be the xc pro at the mo :(

Might get two thins and a fat and try this out at some stage. CRC are real competitive on price but the reviews and ratings aren't that great, as I'm a bit green I find them very useful and Wiggle is good on this.

Cheers, thats probably what I will be doing. Would that be the best choice for the fine gravel forest paths/trails too ?

I'm needing some XC tyres for a sunn urge un 999, XC517 rims, I've been running slicks on it for a few years and I'm thinking about going off road and need some tyres within a very tight budget. It came with Hutchinson Pythons but they are long gone and way beyond my budget as a replacement...

Someone started a thread around the end of December, start of January with a link to a shop who still had a range of rims which included mavic XC517's etc which they were selling cheap. I remember a few people had bought rims and posted in the thread. Does anybody remember the thread or...

strange one, could possibly be due to a fault in the link that was made worse by freezing temperatures, ie, steel becomes more brittle at freezing temperatures, so the link just let go :?

I've been told recently that it's best not to powder coat over pitted plating as it can rust underneath, bubble and then flake off, it is best done on a frame that has been cleaned properly, ie, blasted :!:

cheers, i'll give them a ring

Cheers, I wrecked about most of yesterday afternoon looking for the head tube badge :lol:
