Whilst attempting to remove a stuck BB from my i-Drive, I snapped the little dog bone joint and decided to heat the BB to get it out and ended up warping it out of shape so as this is all useless to me now I'm going to attempt to make some money back :( For sale is the front and rear frame...

If it's powder coated currently, it will be a lot thicker than paint so using some filler might help it loonk natural. The kurust is easy to use, just paint a thin layer on and let it dry for a while. Try not to let it drip as it sets hard and tends to stain everything (including skin).

Mid to late 80's I believe, based on the headbadge, rainbow stripes and cranks. You may even find date stamps inside the brake lever bodies or on derailleurs. As for the paint, you'd be better off getting it acid dipped and new powder coat. A good rust treatment is KuRust (Hammerite). I've used...

Re: Ant's Khristmas Kracker Karma Kompetition Number please :D What sits on the bottom of the Arctic Ocean and shakes? A nervous wreck.

Left hand shifter for lever combo in silver. Or if the clamp on ones will mount without the clamp, that will be fine too.

Re: PM on the way.

Re: I told them what the dates stamped on the levers were and about half of the serial on the fork steerer, but other than that there was nothing else. I think bike theft is seen as a lost cause most of the time and even when reporting it, not even nearly enough detail is taken. The last 2...

Re: A bike came into the shop I work at for some small part replacements, and I noticed that it had a load of my parts. He apparently bought from some random guy who offered it to him for £60 on the street. After talking to the police, showing them many photos of the parts on my bikes and...

Stolen this morning between 3-4am from my garage (cleethorpes). Had m545 wheelset (16 spokes), silver 9spd LX shifters with the up/down brake lever system, M600 V-brakes, FSA XC270 bars and two Fox shocks. Frame was previously cracked and welded quite recently so paint around the area is still...

Re: 1997 GT LTS polished 16" frame with RS Deluxe shock and Indy XC fork. Just looking for an average value before I decide what to do with it. Thanks

I have a set of Exage M320 Levers (1993) with the STI mount but I need the shifters to go on them. It's the ones in this image. I may be interested in the other parts of the groupset too so post what you have :) Thanks

Re: I have 2.2 Mountain Kings on it now and I just checked the clearance and the front has around 20mm each side but rear is about half that so doubt I'll find something that will fit comfortably. May just have to go with the same again.

Does anyone know what the largest size tires I can put on a Whyte PRST-1? I have 2.2 on right now but want something bigger.

Not entirely sure if this is the right section for this but seems like it should be. I don't have any photos but it is quite a recognizable bike. Large polished al frame (with some clear coat on it still) with no stickers except one dealer sticker which was half removed. It also has a custom...

I find it easier to start with the top but I doubt there's any importance. Carefully though, as it looks quite fragile.
