My 12 year old is currently getting lots of use from a 15 inch 26 inch hard tail I built him. He gets out on local trails and recently took a trip to peaselake and is really into it. He's now wanting a full suspension bike.and is spending a lot of time online trying to find one he can save up...

I'm guessing I could be waiting a while.

Still looking. Would consider a full brake.

Last call before I lace something up.

I have a few options depending on the desired length and rise.

Looking for a rear mech to match a shifter as I can't overcome OCD and use an xt I have.

Must be new as it's impossible for the old to take anything more than qr due to bearing diameter.

I've got this black one cheap https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/a-couple-of-stems-and-ergo-grips-cheap.452975/ Couple more here: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/cheap-stems.430309/

Hi, thanks for the reply, you got the gist of my dilemma. It's the stand over and reach that I was concerned about, I was thinking bigger wheels need a longer wheelbase so how that would compare and work for a smaller chap. Obvious when you say look at geo charts, I can at least compare with...

I have an HSBC account, well card that doesn't charge currency fees. It was a free add on to a basic account. I'm sure other banks must do the same.

I have a pro2 hub wearing 20mm adapters and I'm not needing them. I have other adapters so could swap them out, assuming they are compatible without any extra parts. I know the 20mm ones have a circlip where others don't.

I am amazed that after over 120 posts, no one has asked the question, is it a Zaskar? ;)

I've got a Raleigh team titanium bike. It's a full time frame, rear wishbone stay same as Tourus and X-lite ti frames. Full m952 xtr gearing, brakes and levers. Hope ti hubs in blue, Mavic rims, middleburn chainset (blue, quite rare), hope stem in blue, as are qrs and post clamp. Currently has...

The hubs and cassette are also great kit, but they are proprietary and the freehub only compatible with suntour cassettes. Hubs are also greaseguard so can keep them smooth.

Middleburn Nuke proof Goldtec Spring to mind as not in your list.

I need to check travel but I do have a set of factory forx. I bought them new, they are fit damper top of the line from bitd. From day 1 I swapped the lowers over to a new set that could run v brakes. I used them briefly on a retro bike running modern kit, but then reverted to more retro...

My take on this having read the whole thread is pretty simple. It's not a GT frame of any sort. It's simply a copy of a GT frame (probably a zaskar) made in ti. Whether it was 20 years, 10 years or 10 mins ago, it doesn't really matter. Weld quality can be good or bad today or bitd, it doesn't...

I have a set of silver ones, can't recall the model off the top of my head but not cross ride. They are rim brake and iirc have disc hubs which is unusual.

I wasn't planning to but I do have one. I was going to build up a wheel set around it, a pace carbon hub and some nos 717 rims but I may not need to now as have too many wheels as it is.

Yep, just like normal paint in my experience.
