Hey, I've got a new one for this problem. I tried all the above with a combined crank and rings which made it worse. Saws, big hammers, drills - everything. The only thing that got it off in the end was (and this only works if one of the arms is not stripped) take the good arm off and screw...

Dia-Compe 988 black brakes with green ano insert, complete set, very good condition £12 Put me down for these please!

Just so I don't have to do this twice I need to make sure!. Can you use those hanger things on shimano canti brakes that previously had a link wire? Thanks. :lol:

Pug 205 GTI with Child Seat in the front, I'm liking your style!! :lol:

Well, after posting that I wanted a mid nineties Saracen a few weeks ago. I now have three!! that's on top of the Marin SS project and the modern felt I'm running ...I only wanted one ha ha. The best is a mint Tufftrax, it's like new and a lovely purple colour....it did cost a bit though. :oops...

Snob! :lol: :wink:

Are there any other images available from this catalogue? Specifically the TuffTrax???? please?

This just goes to show how a brand can be damaged beyond repair with bad management and cost cutting. It's a bit of a conundrum because on a retro forum you could read it as a judgement on the other bikes but the question has been asked of the brand as a whole. Personally I'll always think of...

How much you reckon its worth? :?:

It's 15.5 " frame. Missing - Seat, rear mech, chain, grips, Tyres

Cheers - changed the bracket for the fourth time last night and it works!!Woo -hoo. Got issues with cables and chain now but think I can solve them!!. :lol:
