    Need Help With Fork ID

    Taiwanese frork with Elastomere, sold from a number of brands like 43 cyclepieces, Abt, Akela, Rhino, Sabre etc. even also from Shogun for a while often with polished lowers. It had been offered quite cheaper as a Manitou or even Rockshox. So a no-name thing, but on the other side...

    To repair or not repair cracked head tube

    Hi, I just wanted to share my two cents about fixing cracked head tubes too. Brilliant work from @danson67! Just it may not work for all cracked head tubes, as very often it's not a single crack, but often more, or at least from both sides. I have bought once KTM Ultra (the blue one with AMP...

    Marin Shoreline Trail

    Hi Voldman, welcome here, please provide some pictures, this is typical pretty helpful to date or comment on your bike. If I'm not mistaken, the model name Shoreline wasn't used before end of nineties at all. The first one was for a full suspension bike, here is a link to the 2001 model...

    I also collect information about my bike "KTM ultra cross"

    Nice Bike! Information about early KTM MTBs is rather spare, to me this might be a 1990 or 1991 model and similar like the ones liszed in this 91 brochure (sorry I don't have any better pictures) It's hard to see, is this an "MC" or are there even 3 letters at the seat tube?

    Bulding my 1st Retro Grvalebike Merida Dakar 21 1994

    this is a titan-finish, sometimes also called "titanized" frame, CroMoly with nickelplating, no paint, but maybe still a clear lacquer. Something which is impossible to do at home, not even companies can do this easily, because of environmental rules nowadays. So indeed a bit of a challenge...

    Bash guard ID???

    The cut outs are just to fit more easily to different crank sets. The Crystal Design chain ring guard came in different variants, also for compact and standard BCD. This is from 1997: And here is an advert, already from 1992, showing also one with out any cut outs at all:

    Steel or aluminium rings ?

    Hard to say, just my gut feeling, it's a LX550, by the general design and the used plastic cap. Rings should be aluminum.

    Show your K2

    wow, this is a bit of an rare Razorback HT, most only re-call the iconic full suspension Razorback (with pull-shock licensed from Turner). This came 1999 and initially still with Noleen (earlier Girvin) Crosslink fork. But the frame was at this time already with IS disc mount, just not the...

    Imlach's Sweaty Hippie Funk Collection, adventure bikes, rusty rats, cruisers and other alt bastardisations of bicyclery

    sorry for replying once more to this interesting ride. Just Paul Brodies cruiser with shaft drive came to my mind last night and I have to share this here too. His result as shown at the North American Handmade Bicycle Show (2017, if I'm not mistaken)...

    They say this cat Shaft is a bad mutha...(shut your mouth) I'm talkin' bout Shaft

    hey, this looks really cool, although my personal experience using a shaft drive bike wasn't great. This is obviously not an SE Racing BMX cruiser, nor has an landing gear fork. It looks like someone has used just this sticker set...

    Hooger Booger Comp LX

    Scott bought them in 1994, mostly because of their Snowboard business, and changed the name than to just "Hooger", but stopped the brand not long time after.

    Imlach's Sweaty Hippie Funk Collection, adventure bikes, rusty rats, cruisers and other alt bastardisations of bicyclery

    I had a Biomega Copenhagen, bought roughly 2005 and used as urban bike and commuter for a few years. I loved the design, and clean style, also the fluorescent lacquer, but I start to hate the shaft drive. I only have dismounted the rear wheel once, it was a major challenge and took me a lot...

    Information on frame kastle randonnee pro

    @Obi-Juan this is nice too, a 1993 model as I didn't come across of an 93er brochure yet, let me share two pages of an German buyers guide They didn't come at this time with an suspension fork, but the year later, 1994, when Kästle changed the naming of the bike series from Radonnee to...

    Cable routing help

    sorry, a bit late, but why not doing this just like it was Middle for the rear derailleur, right for the front mech, left for the brake (which goes round the headtube from the right to the left side in the front, while the other both are on the right side of the headtube).

    Information on frame kastle randonnee pro

    Hi, nice bike, I do like this Randonee series. No clue about seatpost size, but originally it came with a black post. Please find below some pictures of a brochure, released end of 1990. Sorry for the bad quality, unfortunately I have nothing better.
