I have multiple builds going on at the moment, this is one of them that i havent posted about, so here we go. Merlin Newsboys are a bit like marmite, you hate them or you love them. Obviously I’m in the second camp. Over the years I’ve asked around, send a few e-mails and dm’s here and there to...

Up

Added XTR crankset

hi there, long shot but swap only, no sales I have a grey WTB x Specialized team saddle with ti rails and perforated leather in umma gumma grey. I want to swap for a identical version in black. Needs to be same model and similar condition or better (will add cash)

Many thanks to Enrico, he sold me a couple of XTR M900 bits. He provided multiple pictures and package arrived safe and sound, recommended!

Added spring nuts

Cheers, refurb by Steve Potts with original decals from Scot Nicol (see the BowTi build thread)

Thank you! And for those who don’t know, Scot Nicol (founder of Ibis) worked as an apprentice for Charlie Cunningham, who later co-founded WTB, so even though it’s not exactly ‘catalog spec’ i think its not too far fetched to go this route.

Yeah, i’ve seen them pop up every now and then over the years but i have always been looking for the good WTB bits. There are also a couple of different versions of the New Paradigm hubs. These are the correct 1st gen with sticker decals.

I also found a grey WTB x Specialized team saddle in excellent condition (date stamp from 1992). I would prefer a black version, if anyone fancy’s a trade 😉

I’ve been hoarding WTB parts for a long time and i’ve had a single New Paradigm 32h front hub in pretty much new condition for over 10 years. Recently i’ve been able to pick up a set of 32h hubs, the rear hub is unlaced with some storage marks but the front hub was used: So i sold the front...

Good day, couple of updates I’m going with some used WTB canti’s. They are the ‘correct’ version with straight springs. These have been sitting in my parts bin since forever, might as well put them to use
