    Wanted WTB UK damaged XLR 1” threaded headset

    I have an XLR 1” headset m900 (so 900,901,902 range). However two parts have small issues. The bottom race has a few chips out of edge and the top lower race has a small bend in outer edge. I can probs batter it and get it close to ok and use as is but thinking maybe can make a perfect one...

    Sorted WTB UK black or titanium seatpost 27.0

    Need a black or titanium seatpost for my Hack, straight bar 531 frame. Had to use my Thomson 27.0 post but it’s a mountain bike length (was for my Kona kula) but it bottoms out on bottle cage thread about an inch too high and it’s far too nice to cut down. So looking for something that will...

    My Galaxy Hack…

    Now I am assuming it’s one of last British built ones before production went to Czech republic (couple of reasons it is marked 531 super tourist and think the Czech ones only had main tubes in 531 so marked double butted rather than ST. 2nd reason is the seatpost aparently went to 27.2 for...

    Finally built my trail/gravel/tarmac hack…. More photos in post 98 readers bikes. Think it’s a 99 or 00 British frame as it’s 531st and 27.0 seatpost and the Czech ones went to 27.2 by info I can see. So Dawes galaxy, Thomson elite seatpost, brooks c67 saddle, bontrager ti-tec bar, gripshift...

    My Galaxy Hack…

    Took a while, may be pre 98 or post 98 probs pre but doesn’t really fit road or mtb category. Just a flat bar hack for track, trail, gravel and tarmac. Got to replace the gripshift rubbers and will probs upgrade front derailleur to XT at some point, would like a nicer stem and cranks as I find...

    Picked up some strange pedals

    Well they ain’t strange as in function but never seen make before. Cant see any others for sale, can’t find any images of same product on google etc and/or any other bike parts from make. I can see one article where the company appears to have supplied Hope with machinery or similar. WNT it...

    Sorted Suntour Ultra 6 Freewheel

    Keep an eye on eBay and look at photos as I reckon you can tell narrower ones. Just picked up a 14-30 winner pro for a good price that wasn’t marked as ultra but looked like it could be from side on photo. Held it against my daughters mtb 7 speed sis shimano cassette and cog spacing is...

    Getting upright

    I am just in middle of build from old Dawes galaxy tourer. Straight bar, slightly chunkier tyres (again for comfort). I’d do similar imho. Means I also get a steel frame as tbh modern alu ones shake the bones outa you. Even though you want more upright i reckon steel and slightly wider tyres...

    Back home after 10 years!!! RC200 F4 "The Brit Build"

    What this one? That I could maybe be persuaded to part with. I wasnt actively or even considering selling but think they were produced later than the bars and other early pace products so were never something I longed for. Though admittedly I do look and see if can find a good value rc200...
