    Rock Shox Quadra 21R elastomers

    Not mine I bought a set of quadra 21-R's new in 1994 and they had elasomers just like these fitted The replacement ones supplied by Suspensionforkparts.net are a one piece design and aren't very good.

    Shimano Hyperglide What Chain Do You Use?

    Thank-you. The SRAM PC890 looks to be the best one, can you tell me if you get a powerlink (the split link that joins the two ends of the chain) with a chain or will I need to but one of those separately. I guess a spare one in my puncture repair kit would be the smart thing to do as...

    Shimano Hyperglide What Chain Do You Use?

    I have a 1994 Shimano XT setup, I used to use the HG90 chain but looking around it seems that they've all gone. From a quick Google search it looks like a SRAM chain would be OK. Does it use the same link joining method as the HG90 with the little pin that you fire through and then break...

    Ritchey parts

    If anyone is curious about the Ritchey pedals they're brilliant I have a set of these on both of my bikes, one set I've been riding on for 18 years and they still haven't worn out! Ritchey do their own cleats but they are almost identical to Shimano SPD and I can't tell the difference when...

    first retro build since this stuff was new

    There were some quadra 21r's on US ebay this week, they're not hard to come by but watch out, the elastomers will almost certainly have decomposed to mush and will need to be replaced. there is a company suspensionforkparts.net where I got some replacement elastomers, I chose medium not hard...

    Rockshox Quadra 21R

    The elastomers in quadra 21r's are decomposing into mush. They are nearly 20 years old now so its only to be expected. Mine went towards the end of last year and I couldn't find any NOS anywhere so I opted for a kit from suspensionforkparts.net I got the medium not the hard compound and...

    onZa pedals ~ ebay.uk

    I had a set of these and didn't like them, when pedalling over bumpy ground the elastomers would flex and you'd bounce out of the pedals. They don't have any float either, if I used the soft elastomers I couldn't stay clipped in and if I used the hard ones my knees hurt because of the lack of...
