    For Sale Jaguar Car Seat Sofa

    First post in a while! I kinda lost the MTB bug due to life events etc :( Still got the 94 Lava Dome in the shed though :) It sees a little bit of leisure/commuting use. I had this sofa custom made about 8 years ago, but having recently downsized to a smaller place, its a bit too hard for my...

    Wanted Square taper 5 bolt crankset, 170-175mm

    Hello all. First post in a very long time! I promised to convert my dad's bike to single ring at the front for him, but little did I know, his 1995 STX-RC has some weird shit going on where the big ring bolts to a weirdly shaped middle ring rather than to the crank arms?! So I'm in the market...

    The other "HOW MUCH IS MY xyz WORTH" thread for 98

    Re: My friend brought this round the other day: GT XCR 4000. I said I'd take a look at it for him, but it turned up in a far worse state than I was expecting, and I have neither the time nor the energy for this one sadly. I said I'd ask around see what it might be worth in its current state...

    WANTED: Cheap rigid MTB/Hybrid 17-19" east mids area

    Re: Thanks Chris, sounds really nice, maybe a bit nicer than I was looking for to be honest, I'm really looking for a sub-£50 shonker. That said, I am very tempted, if you were closer or I was heading down that way I would probably bite...... Do you mind if I have a think about it whilst I see...

    Does anyone work in the bike industry?

    So does anyone on here work for Orange or Kona, or Hope or USE or someone like that? Or even a local bike shop? I'm job hunting right now, and constantly wading through pages of shit on job websites is getting me down, so I've decided to try hitting companies that I think I'd like to work for...
