...but it's a lot of fun! Bars fitted yesterday as I wanted to see what they'd be like - only had a quick go with them so far, but it's looking promising! :) (& yes, the spacer has to go!)

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0395973743 NAWS. I'm tempted, but I just don't need em! :)

Before - with blackwall tyres: After - with amberwalls: :)

The following are in my Mum's garage & are described from memory. I should probably have waited to put this thread up until I had them here, but then they'd be in my way... I can collect / get pics / details of them at the weekend if there's any interest - if not they'll stay where they are...

As before really... I've got pretty much a bikes worth of nice modern bits that I could throw on my 856, but would be better on something more modern that didn't need disc adapters, shock adapters etc... So, I'm after: 17"ish full-sus frame, With rear disc mount, Preferably taking a fairly...

Something along the lines of the On-one Mary bar... Sounds like a good idea so I want to give one a go! Prefer black, but whatya got? :)

I know, I know, but it's to save the retro bikes from the worst abuse! 17"ish or smaller, disc mount, suitable for a ~120mm fork - so prob 4-5" of rear travel. Anyone?

Apologies for the non-retroness, but my proflex isn't getting ridden in its current semi-retro, semi-modern guise, so I want it back in 1996 form. That means I 'need' something modern to abuse instead. :) I'm not after a DH bike, but apart from that, the only real cert is that it'll need a...

...like the one it has at the mo, but with a bit of rise. Does such a thing even exist?!

Pref black, & pref 2-bolt. Whatya got? :)

Decided I can justify more than one SS bike, but I need a tensioner at least until I'm 100% sure about getting new dropouts fitted! I'll get bodging if nobody's got anything appropriate lying around, but figured it's worth an ask...

I'm in need of some modern suspension forks... 100mm ish travel, & nothing too heavy please. Could just buy them, but I've also got some Vector-1s with an ODS/coil conversion (and a proflex 854 frame for that matter!) & some 2000 Marzocchi Jr-Ts that might be of interest?

Need a complete set (front & rear) of disc brakes, and a front wheel to suit! Not really decided what I'm after exactly, so whatyagot?? :)

I'm contemplating another SS bike, & as I'm starting from scratch I'd like to find something that doesn't require tensioners etc. So far I'm aware of the following: DMR Trailstar - horizontal dropouts Voodoo Wanga - sliding dropouts GT of some description with eccentric BB? Kona unit...

Ideally I'd like to find a 1" quill stem, around 100mm in length with a small amount of rise. As it also needs to be suitable for a riser bar though, I won't hold my breath. Alternatively, has anyone got a 1" quill -> 1" ahead converter lying around? Preferably one that isn't too...

Figured it's getting fairly close to 'finished' (not that it'll ever be there really), & it was a nice day so I thought I'd take a couple of snaps! :)

94/58mm IIRC? Need the whole set - whatyagot? :)

After some modern, fairly light (so probably air) forks around the 100mm or less mark. 1 1/8" ahead, think I need about a 185mm steerer. Fox? Rockshox (Reba?)? Magura? Whatyagot? :)

I've been through this before, & really struggled to find shoes that are comfy on my wide feet - Specialized ones seem ok in the shop, but I'm unwilling to fork out for brand new ones only to find I don't really get on with them! Recommendations so far seem to be that Northwave & Specialized...

Just fitted a pair of SIDs ('02 XCs IIRC) to my Proflex, & having never had an air fork before I'm in need of a shock pump! Do all pumps fit all (modernish) forks, or am I correct in my vague recollection of SIDs being awkward & needing adapters? Cheers! :)
