    recommendation susp 1 1/8 forks for 93 Marin/cantis

    Hello. I'd like to try a suspended fork on front end but anxious not to disturb the lightness and balance of a decent frame (Rocky Ridge). Is there anything people would recommend/have tried and found serviceable from the new options available still for a canti or V braked 1 1/8 size steerer? thanks

    never had a bmx before...

    Thought my son needed a bmx and started looking on ebay. The bidding went up a bit more than I wanted to pay, but suffice to say I won it and went to pick it up. The advert said 'working order' and it must have had a very special bottom bracket as it had all sorts of special movement I'd never...

    retrofitting later shifters onto earliest 7spd combo levers?

    XT 739 running on 9 spd?

    I just caught a forum post elsewhere suggesting someone was using 739 shifter ( 8 speed) with 9 speed derailleur. I realise this was actually because the derailleur has no control, so to speak, but HAS anyone found a cunning ruse for running 8 speed Shimano shifters with a 9 cassette on the...

    M563/ M565 LX Parallax hub cones?

    I've found nasty wear on one of the cones of the front hub. Since i've done little to it since 2000, its hardly surprising. Anyone got any hub cones lying around unused or good source of cheap spares for either of these hubs? Seems sensible to get em back up to scratch even if I pass them on to...

    difference in dual control levers & separate brake/shifter?

    I've got to upgrade some mega9 shifters and came across the integrated ones.. 'dual control'. I imagine they save some weight, but can anyone give me any pros and cons for each system? I'm also considering the 9 speed thumbie option for longevity. thanks

    Canon 40 D camera

    This is a fabulous camera, but i've been using a larger megapixel Sony and whilst my heart desires the Canon for useability and photos, I can't keep two and I need the larger file size now.
