When I was 13 a mountain bike represented freedom and the ability to go out for the day with a few quid and a few tools happy in the knowledge I was self sufficient in my exploration, as I...

    TREK 8300 pro composite project HELP

    I removed the cantilever studs from a 2004 trek 8500 and it was hard work. Not something I’d do again, a good quality spanner is necessary and even then it is risky. That’s an older bonded frame so it may be that they are bonded in too, I’d clean them up as I’m guessing you are sticking with...

    Re: Completed this project. Will post pictures when I work out how again, says they are too large a file straight off my phone. Literally the only non original part (well saddle I went for a black turbo but very near) was the tyres, I think the chances of finding the matrix z axis tyres 25...

    Seeking opinions - rims for my Al Mega DX...

    Re: evening... a man after my own heart! I'm rebuilding a trek 8000 and struggling to get the correct matrix rims with the correct decals to finish it off - they are the last thing for me to source. I'd go with the replica decals personally, if you had the original bike it's surprising the...

    Shark fins, why bother?

    Re: Re: I wrapped chainstays in insulating tape from way back when... I had one of those shitty stick on shark fins on my very first bike and it fell off quickly. obviously the rather expensive xt sharkfins had zip ties... i'd say that it had something to do with u brakes as they both died...
