Complete set of TRP Spyre post mount calipers with barely used Shimano resin pads. £40 posted in the UK. For info TRP recommend 2.3mm rotors for tandem use. And compressionless cables also help with stopping power.

Yes, the outer cable will move (up) when you pull the shifter lever to shift the chain down into the inner ring. So when setting up just make sure there is enough cable outer to allow this movement. You don’t unhook the spring to set it, the neutral/slack/starting position for the mech is in the...

It’s simply reverse sprung. So adding tension to the cable (pulling the shifter towards you) drops it down to the inner ring. By releasing the cable tension the spring in the mech shifts the chain up into the big ring. You set it up as you normally would except the mech is in the big ring before...

I’ve got a couple of options for you. A 2008 Sunday September titanium frame with Shimano 105 5700 10-speed groupset and new Mavic CXP Elite wheels. Carbon forks and seatpost. I believe it was billed as a fast audax bike when it was released. 56cm frame with plenty of fork steerer; should...

Yeah, it’s a classy looking bike. I hope whoever has it now is enjoying riding it and looking after it.

Sorry, it’s long gone.

I can’t help you with a value but I can give you a wee tip to get more eyes on your post. Simply change the title to GT Zaskar and you’ll soon catch some interest.

Not 531 but I have this early 1980s Raleigh Corsa I started but haven’t finished. 24.5” frame, 501 tubing, original paint in reasonable condition. I’ve already stripped it down so it’s available as a frameset only if that’s of interest too. I’m afraid I’ve already polished up the Golden Arrow...

I sold a NOS pair to @Rambo Mambo at the start of this year. They then appeared on eBay almost immediately but I’m not sure if he still has them? https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/irc-mythos-xc-2-10-unused-pair.488921/

That looks an awful lot like the contents of my scrap metal bin. He’ll be struggling to find someone to pay him any actual real money for that lot.
