    XT BR-M775 - serviceable?

    Actually I was pleasantly surprised that the bleed quote was only £15 per brake - which I was happy to pay, just not the significant upsell...

    XT BR-M775 - serviceable?

    OK chaps thanks. 'Modern' bike stuff eh! Already bought a new shock for the bike earlier in the year (c.£300), so I suppose a new set of XT brakes should be bought. Appears I can get a new f&r set for £150 :rolleyes: Way cheaper than buying a new bike I suppose!

    XT BR-M775 - serviceable?

    I've got a set of these on my Giant Anthem which is in the LBS at the moment, I hoped for a simple brake bleed of the front brake. I wanted them to do the work as I'm always getting boxes from them and spending very little. However they've told me both callipers are leaking and they aren't...

    Wanted Tioga handlebar in silver or blue & stem in blue

    Edited my hunt for a silver bar as well as / instead of a blue bar as the former might be easier to come by. I bought a black bar but Evri managed to lose it :mad:

    1990 MuddyFox Adventurer

    @elite504 thanks for the comments. Re: the front brake set up, pretty sure I have the 2mm thick cable in place (but will double check). Also think I’ve got the correct cable straddle - but open to correction on that if you’d can provide a link to the ones you mention on Bicyclist.cc. 👍

    1991 Klein Attitude Gator fade, Grafton, Ringle, Kooka

    My favourite colourway for an Attitude 😍 Don't think I'd go quite as blue as you have but I can see why you did! Great job👍

    Raleigh Dyna-Tech MT4

    Quite enjoyed building one of these up myself a little while back https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/1992-raleigh-dyna-tech-mt4.474753/

    GT scrap yard find

    Interesting paint job! Shame they didn't bother to remove the headset cups, or mask the bottom bracket threads🫣 which suggests it's not been built up since it was painted. Perhaps it was an art class project?

    I'm building a Ridgeback 603 for some reason

    Enjoying this :D Looks like some significant upgrades happening👍 My collection features my 1st proper MTB, and that didn't stay standard either!

    1990 Trek 8000 Aluminium

    As with many a bike of the age and condition, probably around £200 complete. Possibly more in parts. Shame the original tyres have been replaced, but otherwise looks nice and clean :cool:

    Ordering some replacements often results in finding some tucked in a draw 🤦‍♂️

    1998 Giant ATX 850 Project

    No sign of it in the 1997 or earlier brochures on here, therefore must be 1998 or later - but I'm surprised it has a threaded headset so late in the decade. I can't see what groupset yours has, but I don't think there would be any harm in throwing upgraded parts at it if needed. Perhaps...
