Good Afternoon All, I hope you all like retro road bikes as much as I like new climbing gear. I'm selling a 1995 Giant Cadex CFR1 with HED Jet wheels with 85% original Shimano 600 Tricolour groupset. It also has a rather lovely pair of Scott Drop In bars. The downsides are at the tubs don't...

Good Morning All, DeLoreans are ever so unreliable and hot tubs require you to take off your clothes however this time machine will whisk you back to 1985 both reliably and fully clothed. The original Shimano Deore groupset and 6 speed thumb shifters work perfectly and the 2.1 inch Ritchey...

Before spaffing a few quid on a pair of Marzocchi Bomber BAM Z1's from the late 90's are spare parts still available and are they any good? Thanks

Watcha! Can anyone recommend a bottom bracket to be paired up with a circa 1990 Deore DX crankset? Would a Shimano BB-UN55 68 x 137mm work? Thanks

Evening All, Having checked on Bikepedia the 1997 edition of the Pine Mountain came with a combination of LX and XT and a Manitou suspension fork. However the one I've picked up for £40 has a suspension corrected rigid fork, Shimano Alivio and the Marin downtube sticker only on one side. Have...

Evening, Can anyone recommend a replacement for a Tiagra triple ring 9 speed chainset. I've recently treated my Dawes Audax to a new cassette and chain and chain has thrown a wobbly with the existing chainset. The other two rings look fine alternatively any recommendations for a compatible...

I've found a hairline crack at the bottom of the gap underneath the quick release skewer which holds the seatpost in :facepalm: The crack's 6mm in length. Is the frame still rideable or should I retire it?

Afternoon All, With a combined age of 74 years I'm planning to ride my mountain bike on a section of the SouthDowns Way from Southease to Amberley leaving Southease YHA at 10am. Join me if you fancy :-)

Evening All, I'm giving up on the hydraulic Magura rim brakes as after 5 months I still can't BLOODY adjust the things so they don't rub! Can anyone sell me a cantilever or v-brake brakeset and levers? The more obscure the better to go with a 91 polished Cannondale SM2000. Bloody Maguras ggrr

Morning All, I've got some Hed Jet wheels which have had quite heavy use down the years - the rim wear seems quite significant - are the rims replacable? Although the carbons cracked it appears to be non structural so can this be patched up? Wheels are currently gathering dust under the stairs...

Evening All Finally got the Drop Ins fitted...regretr ably after 20 miles so sign of Greg Lemond speed :facepalm: H

Morning All, The Cannondale's now done 100 miles the next project up are fitting Scott Drop-In bars to a Giant CFR (1992). Does anyone have a 1 inch quill stem 25.4mm diameter 20-30 degrees and between 60mm (ish) long. Flash early 90's stuff preferred :) Thanks Hatty

Evening All Stripping down an old Cannondale frame with an ITM Titanium quill stem (probably 1.25). Now is the stem worth anything? Also 1/2 worn when Ritchey Megabite tyres of an old Specialized Rockhopper again are they worth anything? Need some funds for another project :D

Good Evening, As above with 0 degree rise? Money or exchange for a 1985 Specialized Rockhopper frame complete with 'Roughstuff Fellowship sticker (!) Ta H

Afternoon All, Transferring components from a 1.25 inch headset Cannondale frame to a 1 inch headset Cannondale frame, the 3.0 replacable hanger doesn't fit. So; 1. As I've polished off the serial number off the 1 inched headset frame what should I type into Google to find a suitable hanger...

Morning, I've recently aquired a second generation Magura brake set - can I use them without the brake booster on a 1990 Cannondale 3.0 frame? As the booster's rusted through :(
