I've enjoyed Retrobike for years, and I've really been looking forward to this post. Why? Because of all my bikes, this is the first one that was really a project, in the sense of hunting down parts to achieve a vision in my mind's eye. I developed my passion for bikes in the...

Thanks for reading! Lots of black ones out there, but I am seeking silver, and only silver. Please drop me a line if you have one to sell.

Great part selection too...nicely done. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1991-Ibis-Mojo- ... 1352627656

UPDATE: The unicorn has found a new home. It sold on 10/24/14 for $3100, or approximately £1925. Thanks to all of the readers for your lively commentary. It's been fun! ************************** This is a story of a beautiful bike. A unique bike. It’s all true. And yes, the bike is for...

Drool drool...how can NOS of this quality hang around this long??? This truly looks like one in a million. (And no, it's not my ad...) http://cgi.ebay.com/1995-Kona-Hot-All-O ... 415b7d7557[/url]

** This is a hypothetical exercise only. ** Can you think of any situations in which you could find it acceptable to apply stickers to a frame that represent it as a model other than what it is? (For purposes of this exercise, assume it's your own bike, and you are not doing a deceptive...

Here's a recently-ended eBay auction (Canadian seller) that I'm surprised no one seems to have commented on in the forums (at least I didn't see anything...). This is one of my all-time favorite bikes, with one of my all-time favorite customized paint jobs, in a perfect 18" size...a 1997 Kona...

In March 2008, at just about the time that my wife was starting to feel embarrassed about the Christmas wreath that had been on our front door for far too long after the holidays, we noticed that some rather cute little birds had started building a nest in the wreath. Needless to say, once...

Not my bike, don't know anything about it...but it does looks like its owner has sweat the details. Suitable only for giants...look at that head tube! http://mountainslayercycles.com/?page_i ... uct_id=186

Most of you know how difficult it can be to hunt down decent amberwalls these days...even on eBay. So I'm happy to have had a great win that I want to share! Since I recently decided that I plan to restore my 1990 Specialized Hardrock, I started looking for some amberwalls, and I was pleased...

This one looks nice...if only it was an 18"! Unfortunately, looks like he ships only to U.S., so if you *reeeallllllly* want it, you'll have to get creative. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... SS:US:1123

Hi all, I'm sort of "window shopping" for not-too-expensive canti brakes to replace the boring Alivios that are currently on my Hardrock single speed (you can see the link in my signature). I considered blingy things like Paul Touring Cantis, but I don't want to spend that much money. And...

So I've given myself a crash course in single speed setups. I have a 1990 Specialized Hardrock. http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=142923 Because I'd like to make some modifications, I just learned more about single speed drivetrains because no one responded in much detail...

I'm not terribly picky about the vintage...'95 to '99 or so seems like a decent range. And if it matters, I'm in the U.S. Thank you!

Hi gang, Okay, this is where I'll show some of my ignorance and rely on you to learn something new... My 1990 Specialized Hardrock (see link in my signature) is currently set up as a singlespeed. The conversion was done years ago by a mechanic friend of mine, so I was not closely invested...

So, years ago, while trolling around eBay, I was on the store site for a mattress proprietor. And, for reasons unknown to me, intermixed with the Sealy Posturepedic mattress sets and the Perfect Sleeper bedding, the seller just happened to have this... A 2002 Electra Hawaii Cruiser. A new...

This is the most modern mountain bike that I own. Before this, my main ride was a Dekerf Team ST (which I still have; the link is below). I waited until 2007 to hop on the full-suspension bandwagon, and now that I have, I'm perfectly happy to have options. I enjoy having a full-suspension...

The Retrobike Forum has recently transformed the way that I look at my beloved 1990 Specialized Hard Rock...it's like the scales have fallen from my eyes, and now little wheels in my head are turning...so I look forward to your thoughts. My Hard Rock is not fancy, it's not pretty, it's not...

Looks to be all-original components, including Specialized FS front suspension. Taiwan-made frame. Only USD$300, BIN. http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-1992-Specia ... 4aa98bdb3c

I tried to search old catalogues, etc. to pin down the vintage, and I'm guessing this is around 1986 or 1987. Note the lugs and the U-brake. http://cgi.ebay.com/Old-School-Vintage- ... 35b0b3252c
