    ai and us

    Over the years i have always ignored ebay items where the seller is too lazy to write more than "for sale" or "bike", in the item description. Even if it has been something attractive because if they can't be bothered to write a couple of sentances, to sell something, then what is it going to be...

    Canti to U Brake Retrograde. Is It Possible?

    to get u brakes to work with canti/V bosses you will need a big horseshoe plate mounted on the canti bosses and bosses for the U brakes mounted on that. Going from 26" to 650 or 700c with cantis/V's is a common mod and you can buy adapters for not a lot, or try and find the horseshoes that...

    I’ve finally accepted my fate……….. is this sacrilegious?

    Agree that getting out and about is the important thing and i wont hesitate for a second to adopt electronic shifting, if arthritis in my fingers gets bad, and then an e-bike when my legs call time. We are lucky to have the the options to extend our cycling years and it will only get better as...

    Dent from a bike carrier on a roof rack, or out back, maybe?

    Titanium frame repair/filler

    That 100% looks like some metal filler to me. You can see bits glistening in it and around the fill looks like some wet and dry has been used to key the metal.

    WR Compositi all carbon saddle 62g

    Not seen one of those before. I like the shape and no rails to snap. The market is somebody doing a full WR Compositi build, to get proper money for it, as anyone else looking for a light carbon saddle, like a hillclimber for example, will just go to ebay/aliexpress and get one for less than...
