I don't know where I got the idea, but I thought I could run an 8 speed cassette with my Deore XT 7 speed thumbshifters. Something about the thumbies having an extra index in them. When I went to have the cables run yesterday at my LBS, they said that I had to use a 7 speed cassette (a...

Revolution (steel) Roadies on the left, Cold Forged MTB aluminum on the right horrible camera phone pics.

Same sad story I'm afraid. I bought this Rocky Mountain Blizzard frame and it's been 3.5 weeks since payment (May 10th). Not a word from the seller so far. Now I have to jump through a few hoops. Shit. I value my time too much for this crap. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ...

If only it was black...it would be mine...oh yes...it would be mine. http://cgi.ebay.com/1995-Kona-Explosif- ... dZViewItem

I've always wanted one of these since they had a cool race pedigree from the early 90's. Unfortunately it's too smal for me- 16" frame. They were so unique back in the day and I remember seeing a few around, this despite the fact that the A-Frame was essentially a solution to a non-problem...

Seems that this is a roadie set-up. Can I make this work on a mountain bike? Cheers http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... &rd=1&rd=1

Found these at my LBS. While I have no use for them, (either the part or the purple), I figured I couldn't let these retro babies languish away for another 10+ years. They're going to languish away in my parts room instead. So, who's retro enough to remember what these were for? :wink...

UPDATED - FISNIHED with some more lightweight in the future. (Jun 24) This frame has been collecting dust for 2 years. Just got it started... As you can see so far: - Frame walnut blasted, powdercoated gloss black (canti-guide removed from upper seatstays) - Rock Shox SID XC...

Wow, it's been absolutely ages since I've seen one of these. If only it was a 1 1/8th then I'd be hoarding it for myself! :D http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-Rockshox-1-thr ... dZViewItem

Wow, talk about a classic original spec find. I lusted after one of these in my highschool years. (Next best thing to a Klein Attitude at the time). This bike would make you lose your teeth considering it has the ultra rigid Pepperoni fork. This seller isn't in the know since he thinks...

It's a little small for me, but makes a wicked fast pavement ripper. The great thing is, I picked it up because aside from the brake arch (since removed), saddle, bar and bar ends (which I added to stretch the cockpit out a bit). It's pretty much original.

I'm sure that someone out there is pining for one of these... It looks original as far as I can tell. http://cgi.ebay.com/Nishiki-Alien-Mount ... dZViewItem

An interesting bike, At this price I'd only buy it if it had far nicer components. On the other hand, someone on here might think it's worthwhile. http://cgi.ebay.com/Copper-Plated-Kona- ... dZViewItem

I just bought another frame from eBay, another project to start...and never to complete...and this one has a dent in the top tube QUESTION? Can this dent be pulled out somehow? I wouldn't need it to be perfect, just much better than it is so that I can get a professional painter to match...

So I've been having this internal debate lately as I continue to acquire more retro frames and parts. For many during the early 90's, the preferred way to set up your ride was with the smallest frame possible mated to a super long seatpost and long/low rise stem. The reasoning was as...

The last time my 91 Specialized S-works steel was ridden was when it was borrowed by a 220 lb jackass of a friend. This dolt is mechanically inept and never told me the headset was loose the entire time. 1" headtube + steel frame...result? Yup, ovalized headtube. Oh well, I never rode it...

17-18" Blizzards or Altitudes frames or complete Early 90's non-suspension Konas - Explosif or Hot

I have a Syncros rigid (threaded of course) that I'd like to extend by 1 cm. The original tube is pressed into the crown. Any ideas? Thanks
