I currently only have one and a half bikes as I have sold a lot to fund this. My Fatty was one of the losses for this but this is quite fat. Had a major pain getting the frame as they wee all sold out on pre order when I made my mind up. Mailed every bigger dealer and Bike Treks in Ambleside...

So my new frame has these on underneath the top tube to run the gear cable and hose with. Is there a clip I can get that will hold both a hose and a cable to this or is the only way by using a cable tie?

Picked this frame up off faber on here and very glad I did. Am still waiting on parts for the final build but some stuff so far. Been looking for something reasonably modern with 650 wheels and ideally that I could put the shock off my Orange onto. All the way from France and doesn't...

Black ceramic Hope BB in 68-73 size. As you can see it has some marks from fitting and the seals are loose. With it are a brand new pair of seals. £30 inc postage Brand new Hope Team Green stainless bearing bottom braket in an 83mm configuration. This has not been fitted and can be swapped to...

I have some Rockshox Revelations and am running a Chris King ISO hub on a 20 mm maxle with Hope Tech M4 brakes. The setup has a post mount adapter to allow a 203mm rotor. When I first got this lot together I had issues as the floating rotor I was using was dragging on the caliper and made it...

I bought a set of Hope Tech M4 brakes in 2010 if I remember rightly and when swapping my front wheel out this week I noticed a crack where the retainer pin screws through the pads on the caliper. I sent Hope a photo and got a reply back in the morning asking me to send it back. Sent it Monday...

In my opinion the best chain tool ever devised. I got one of these in the mid 90s but they sadly stopped making them before I managed to get another one. I leant mine to someone recently and they broke it which I must admit I did cry a few tears about. This one has a nugget to rest between the...

Like . Newer one has cutaways at the back and not as comfy. Anyone?

Shamelessly stolen from this thread. What bits are close to you now? I am in the loft on my PC and there is an X-Lite Fly stem in red, an SRAM XX left shifter and on the shelf in front of me is a 10 speed XT cassette.

Have been running 3 x 9 for the last three years or so and have decided to go 2x10 as and when I get bits. Managed to get a 2 speed XX shifter cheap this week so need to get the thing finished. I usually use RaceFace chainrings as they shift well if a little aggressively every now and again...

My daughter is 8 and does a lot of training as she does triathlons. She struggles with her bike, well to an extent, as it is a mountain bike and not the lightest. Front sus and the amount of components on it don't help. Don't want rid of it as it is good for her off road. I want to get her a...

Anyone do this and who do you use? On my main ride I have an RP23 on the rear and some Revelation RLT Ti on the front. When I got the forks used ages ago they had just been done and a year later I got them done by TFTuned who supplied them to the original buyer. They had become sticky prior to...

I have an old Hope Bulb laced to a Mavic 721 which I have bit had to touch for years. The hub is on its second rim with a good few thousand miles on it so has certainly performed well. Anyway play has developed in the cassette so am guessing there is some slop in the freehub that needs...

Last segment is kind of fitting for here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voNqjCAy6Sg

Sold this young man my Trek Fuel frame. Good comms and a welcome visitor to my house. Smooth transaction and would happily deal with him again.

I have a 98 Zaskar LE in ball burnished finish that I want to polish up to the nines. It is without a headset or bottom bracket so nothing in the way. What is best to use to make it shiny again? What are good methods?

Got a Hope Bulb running at 20mm on a Mavic 721 rim. Rim is straight and spokes all good but I have some play in the front hub. Have removed the circlips that hold the 20mm bits in place and regeased the bearings then reseated the clips but there is some play in the hub. Any ideas how to sort...

...for my 8 year old who nailed 3rd out of a field of 18 girls in the T1 class. Not bad when she is only 8 and the class is 9-10 year olds. Sad thing about it was the pushy parents yelling stuff at their poor browbeaten kids, 'Change Gear, Push Harder, etc...) Could n't be prouder of her! :D

X-Lite Fly stem that is 120mm from centre to centre, see picture. It is red but fairly faded and comes with an X-Lite top cap. - £25 Avid SD 2.0 silver brake levers. Been led in a Jiffy bag for ten years so need a polish and the bolts are a little rusty but replaceable. £12 Spinergy Spox...

This arrived today after a few days of courier pigging about. My Trek will serve as a donor though I am going to use a spare post for now while I work out what I want on it. Had to buy a new front mech and seatpost clamp and just short some cables now. Going to try and get it done over the...
