Been looking out for a small framed vega for my youngest and finally found an Alpina 502 a few weeks ago which he's chuffed with. Now this comes up :facepalm: .... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191925000056? ... EBIDX%3AIT And here's one exactly the same as mine except it has v brakes instead...

Quite a rare bike from a small, very well regarded French builder. Rides very nicely and only selling because I prefer the versatility of my mtb for road/trail. The frame is solid but the paintwork is showing its age. Seatpost has surface rust only and moves freely. The following thread...

I want to get my youngest son out on some leisure rides (mainly gravel paths/lanes so non suspension) and want something nice and simple to get him started. Frame size small 13" or 14" (27" inside leg) with 26" wheels. Budget up to £150. Location: West Midlands Thanks.

Preferably of a similar design/vintage to my Silstar but anything considered as it will be an improvement on the 165mm one my lbs fitted to match the 170mm on the driveside :facepalm: And it needs to be cheap as I've already thrown too much money at this project.

Picked this up locally over the weekend. Can't find much detail about it other than it was made in France in the 80s and has Huret gears. No idea what the tube quality is but it's surprisingly light at 21lbs. ....and a nice Brooks Competition saddle :D Went out on it yesterday and it's a...

Bought locally from original owner and in fantastic original condition apart from a couple of minor rust spots which I've treated and the rear wheel running very slightly off true. Rides beautifully, very light, quick and stable at speed. Was a little reluctant to fit my Ergons as it was so...

I've recently bought and refurbed a 1995 Kona Fire Mountain which my eldest son is going to be riding on our outings which are a mixture of lanes and light trails. I currently have a Cannondale Bad Boy but after riding the Kona it's opened my eyes to how good these old steel frames are. My...

I've started the search for one of these after my son commandeered my newly rebuilt Fire Mountain. Unfortunately this one is on the big side for me.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kona-Explosif ... 4ad0d1b672

Couldn't find an intro thread so hope this is the right place :) Just bought a '95 Kona Fire Mountain which needs a bit of tlc so I'll be getting on with that over the next couple of weeks. The headset is a bit grouchy so I've ordered a replacement and a few other bits......I'm also...
