Hello, I am after a steel pub/town/shopping bike - either a sensible road bike (i.e. with 32c+ tyres and mudguards) or a large gents town bike (no SA hubs or rod brakes though please!). It will in all likelihood perennially live in the garage, and it's going to get knocked around in the stands...

Next week I'm coming back to the UK after 4 years working in NZ. I need a cheap pub bike pretty much pronto. I've got a pretty big list of demands as you can see :shock: rather than the usual ebay offerings has anyone on here got something? Fat tyres and mudguards are good, singlespeed...

So I suppose this is how it started - a 100-mile overnighter along the Clutha River in New Zealand. I already have an Inbred 29er for bikepacking/XC duties but my partner had to borrow that rather lovely and otherwise barely-used Yeti ARC she's riding in the picture, so I've decided to build up...

Anyone know what's available? Onza ones are too fat for my bike - I need 1.9s. Charge Splashback seems to be out of production and getting some shipped from the UK is prohibitively expensive (annoyingly I had a set of these and sold them before I moved out here). The only secondhand ones I...

It hasn't taken long for the old retro bikes to start piling up in my new place in New Zealand. This old Haro is in a bit of a state, but luckily I a) volunteer in a community bike workshop and b) work for a MTB distributor/retailer, so I shouldn't run into any problems with components or...

Hello. I went and sold my road bike and then decided to do an overnighter next weekend. Does anyone have a pair of 26" slicks I can fit on my mountain bike? I live in Essex so postage will probably be required. Do PM me as this thread is likely to become lost.

As per the title really - I'm off cycling in France in the summer and a friend wants to come along, but he hasn't got a bike! So something 58-60cm, preferably with slightly shorter toptube, 531 or better, with mudguard eyelets, and reliable components. Something like a complete Raleigh Clubman...

Anyone got any? Looking for SPD with a deep sole and decent knobbly bits for traction in mud.

I'll be moving to Dunedin come June/July - anyone there?

Lovely, got some on the way now - thanks guys.

This has been my main bike for a couple of years. Relatively short top-tube (64x58) which combined with the Technomic stem gives an incredibly comfortable riding position. With a bit of fettling I've managed to squeeze 28c tyres and SKS full mudguards on using P-Clips (shame it didn't come with...

1. 1988/89 Muddy Fox Explorer - £80 pickup/£100 posted Big-boy sized gate frame, 23" (I'll check). Tange chromoly frame and forks, mostly Muddy Fox branded bits, mudguard eyelets, rear rack and front lowrider eyelets. Nice slack angles - would make an excellent heavy-duty tourer or offroad...

All sold!

Hi all, I'm building up an off-road expedition bike on the cheap, here's what I've got so far: http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=230321 I'm off to the south island of New Zealand for a couple of years and I want to tour on the multitude of off-road tracks and trails. I'll...

Here we go. Off to New Zealand for a few years in the spring and I'm planning to do some cyclo-camping and off road touring (as well as general non-serious MTBing) - but being a student means I've got bugger all money (or more correctly, I spent all my money on my Gazelle). So, saw this...

Hi all, I would really appreciate it if you could take a minute to fill out a survey that'll form part of my MDes research. http://kwiksurveys.com/s.asp?sid=74nazis7k1k3cg944671 It's about transport so you can think about bikes!

Any Holdsworth experts? I'm interested in this Mistral frame. Closeup on this advert: http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/vinta ... tem-full-3 Price is too high, obviously, but I'll see where I can go with that. My issue is - is it really a Mistral? I've never seen one that doesn't...

That time of year again. Still haven't found what I'm looking for! Has anyone got a 64x57 or 62x56 touring frame? Needs to be full 531 or better throughout (main tubes, stays, forks) and have clearance for 35c tyres with mudguards, and be compatible with 700c wheels. Something like a...
