Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere - couldn’t find anything via search. This morning I acquired an immaculate Crud Catcher in red, only the second I’ve ever seen - the first was ten years ago, also pictured below. Question is; the logos are different; I now realise I’ve never seen...

Probably going to regret this, but up for sale is my 1987 Raleigh Royal lightweight touring frameset. Until recently, this was my primary audax / road bike. Lovely compliant 531 Super Tourist tubes, forkblades and stays. For the 1987 model year the Royal was identical to the top of the range...

For sale is a lovely vintage pair of sunglasses, ideal for this murky British weather! Not an Oakley expert, but my research suggests these are the 1996-1999 model M frame, in a sort of metallic burnt orange colour. They are in very good / unworn condition, hopefully the photos show this, but...

This certainly won’t be to everyone’s taste, but is interesting to see the continued interest in classic era mtbs in some circles produce new variants on the ‘modern 26er’; https://theradavist.com/squid-bikes-maybe-dead-26-rigid-mtb/

https://bikepacking.com/news/house-of-looptail-snake-belly/ A new company re-making old tyres (amongst other things). Their site also mentions a planned reissue of the Ritchey Megabite Z-Max which will likely be of interest around these parts.

Looking for any parts to help complete this - anything compatible considered.

Seems like a long shot, but I have a pair of XTR M900 cantilever arms but one of them is missing the assembly that holds the brake pad in place - I need the whole lot, the bolt with the slot, both concave washer thingies, the nut and washer from the back. Otherwise any pointers on after market...

Longshot - but looking to replace a cracked non-drive crank to complete a pair ready of my Overbury's build. Let me know what is out there.. Cheers

https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/kona-lava-dome-early-1990s/1465484337 Belongs to a friend. Complete with A&B:drive tyres!

Hi all, Long time lurker posting what will (eventually) be my first proper 'build thread'. A warning for the impatient though; this will be a slow burn as I'm juggling a number of other priorities. After being on the lookout for an Overbury's for about a decade (and picking up my Andy Powell...

Peugeot Record du Monde Grand Tourisme touring bike. 55cm front 52cm rear. Matching Blackburn front and rear pannier racks, original Stronglight tandem chainsets, Simplex downtube shifters, Peugeot branded Simplex rear derailleur. Sachs Huret front derailleur. Wolber Super Champion Modele 58 on...

90s Dawes Super Galaxy. Mostly original, aside from new Panaracer Pasela 32c tyres, blue Jagwire cables and BBB pads. Some age related corrosion to chrome parts, but this bike has seen little use. The rims are barely worn in - this bike belonged first to my mum who rode it on a single tour in...

Has anyone had any luck replacing / servicing the bearings in these headsets? Are there any sealed bearing races out there that could serve as donors to revive one of these headsets?

Hi all, Recent acquisition, any info appreciated. I’m guessing the frame is 50s era. Some nice details including grease port in the bottom bracket. Thanks, Alex

Hi all, I’m having a spot of trouble identifying the correct diameter post for my Cinder Cone. It is the 1988 model with the u-brake on the seat stays and two rather than three colour splatter. The original kalloy post is long gone and getting an accurate outer diameter measurement from the...

Hi all, The clearout continues. For sale is a nice Campag wheelset. 9 speed Veloce hubs on Mavic MA3 rims. Front rim significantly lower wear than the rear. Hubs run nice and smooth, both rims run true. Comes with a usable Campag 9 speed cassette and matching Vittoria Rubino 700 x 23c tyres...

Hi all, Reluctantly offering this up for sale. Lovely original paint with plenty of patina. Tons of clearance for large volume tyres (26”). I had this set up as a rugged randonneur type bike with guards and 1.75 Paselas but would be great with off road tyres. Comes with the original Suntour...

Hi all, Thought I’d share some photos of my Andy Powell build. Acquired the frame in lockdown and had most of the parts knocking about - sorry to any purists for the mix of eras! Seems to have been a custom order, and not the original fork - hence the spacers. I’d say its an 80s frame with a...

Considering parting with my mid-eighties Nigel Dean MTB. I know I'll not find another one like it... 20" frame, lovely slack angles - I had it set up as a rugged randonneur until recently, hence the guards and rack. Would make a lovely klunker type build, pub/commuter or even benefit from a full...
