    Why the 'chunky' suspension?

    I recently swapped my 2006 era Rock Shox Recon forks, the first of these kind and what appears to be a change in width of Rock Shox forks from this period. I upgraded to SID, they're only a year older than my previously owned Recon but the cosmetic changes are so obtuse one would think they're...

    Another P*SSED OFF Halfords customer

    I've recently salvaged a wheel used for spares and/or repair, the rim wall eventually split from braking wear on the previous wheel so i extracted it and laced the hub to the replacement rim. Anyway, i visited my local Halfords and mistakenly had the 'bicycle mechanics' true the wheel. Upon...

However, this is the only original picture i have available of them as i currently don't have access to a digital camera i'm unable upload more images...

    Modern Road Cassette Compatibility

    For road use i wish to upgrade my current MTB cassette to a road cassette (9 speed) in the near future. (I always ride within the high gears of an 11-34 ratio, i very rarely shift from the smallest sprocket). I intend to continue using a long cage Shimano XTR M952 rear derailleur. My question...

    Looking for post millenia Shimano catalogues

    At appears there're only Shaimano catalogues up to the year 1996 available to read on the Retrobike website, i've searched elsewhere on the internet for catalogues displaying Shimano products from 2000 onwards but to no avail. :roll: Can anyone provide links or upload photographs of...

    Thin MTB frames

    I want a new frame for a future build. Being retro minded of course, preferably a simple design, mid 90s and steel but more importantly, very narrow tubing similar to that of a classic road bike. The only frames that come to mind are the original Konas' of this era. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

    German RetroBike Site

    I stumbled upon a German Klein website that may interest Klein fans or any other Retro enthusiasts. There's some great pics of classic bike builds from other manufacturers on there too. Also, click on hot brands and check out the parts. http://www.wundel.com/ :D

    Early rear suspension designs

    I understand frames with rear suspension of the early/mid 90s were typically a single pivot design, did all the mountain bike companies incorporate the same geometry on most of their downhill mountain bikes? Generally speaking, i haven't seen many front & rear mountain bikes from this period...

    1996 & 2012 Olympics mountain bikes: Weapons of choice

    The olympic mountain biking event is tomorrow, i thought i'd cast my mind back to Atlanta 1996. I've found very little spec information about the bikes used on this day. Mountain biking was a little known sport to the mainstream before it made it's olympic debut at the 1996 summer olympics...

    1996 Olympics Mountain Bikes

    The mountain bike event at the 2012 Olympics is soon, so i thought i'd cast my mind back to Atlanta 1996 when Olympic mountain bike racing made it's debut at Georgia International Horse Park. Where can i find the spec information of the bikes used at this event?
