Thanks for the link, just joined up 👍

Do you know which Facebook page they are using, out of curiosity is there anything specific you’re looking for as I need to clear my shed ?

Is there anywhere that shows a list of upcoming jumbles down here in the Southwest, I’ve just seen one advertised on Facebook for today Saturday 23 March starting at 8.00, had I known about it a week ago, then I could have made it. Don’t mind travelling a bit around Devon, Somerset or Cornwall...

Re: joker xc Thanks for reply, mine came to me as D/H set up with a Vanilla 7.5” coil shock fitted & also a billet triangular adaptor allowing different shock positions. Currently I have a 6.5” RP2 air shock which seems about right also had the effect of lowering the BB to 13.5” with 100mm...

Any users on the forum, could do with some advice on rear shock & reducing travel, Mike.

Re: wanted Thanks for the offer, sorted on stem & bar, still looking for XT cranks preferabley 170’s.

Need something for the wife’s new ride, stem for 31.8 bars around 60mm ish, handlebar width not critical rise of 40-50mm. XT hollowtech cranks 170 preferred for triple ring chain set but don’t need rings. Anyone down in Sunny Devon have something light for sale, Exeter/ mid Devon area, Mike.

Anyone down here in the Southwest have a medium 5 spot frame for sale ?

Every time I see one of these early frames for sale I get the urge to buy one, it’s a bike I’ve always fancied but never got an opportunity to get hold of. How easy is it to get hold of replacement bushes these days, as I believe that was the main weakness should I have a moment of madness Ps...

Re: thanks for the replies so far, I have seen similar but not identical frames by Pat Hanlon & Harry Perry that use a similar rear seat stay/ seat post clamp arrangement, this will probably end up as one of life's great mysteries.The plan now is to tidy it up & have it on the road this Spring...

Just bought this as my retirement project, there are no serial numbers or any form of identity on the frame, it was believed refurbed by Argos of Bristol aprox 20 yrs ago, Brake levers are Shimano 600, calipers Dia-compe Fr & rr derailers are Campag as are cranks, shifters are Simplex Seat...
