Just throwing up a wee thread since I have entered BoTM this month with my Pace. I bought this frame in late 2011/early 2012 I think, just before I discovered 29ers and fat-bikes, so its first build took a while, and then it barely got used. I felt guilty about this so built it as a fixed gear...

Basically yes. Alansbmx.com has an old school parts section. A lot of OG stuff has crazy prices but re-pop stuff is available. You would get better and more specific advice on radbmx forum or facebook page. This section is pretty quiet.

I've been around the houses buying spokes for previous wheel builds, but I'm struggling this time. So where is the best place to buy some spokes? Only after DT Swiss Competition db in silver. It shouldn't be this hard (or expensive!). :?

Further to the conversation here, viewtopic.php?f=8&t=359881 and especially Fluffys post here, viewtopic.php?f=8&t=359881&start=30#p2682333 let's have a wee poll to see what folk think. This is non-binding and subject to judicial revue should it be necessary. The judges will obviously be gay...

Just back from a nice off road ride. Unfortunately if I want to ride from the house (and I do) I have to do a mile or so on the road before my first exit point. Now it is not uncommon to encounter people of dubious parentage who should not be in charge of motorised vehicles on these short road...

Who makes Ti handlebars these days? I know about the 2 Thomson ones, and I've seen the Seven risers (which I think look awful btw) but apart from generic no-name Chinese stuff nowt else. So what's about? Oh, and no Jones bars thanks! :wink:

OK. This has been split from the now cancelled GT anniversary ride thread. Think we can pick up discussion from here. Question is what rides do folk want to do? Baltic Bawbags never happened, Pentlands wasn't exactly stowed out and now no anniversary ride. :?: We tried the easier last year...

Gauging by the success of the other Hope thread I was wondering if the hive mind could educate me about a later era of disc brakes? I'm interested to know what disc brakes were around in 1997. I got my first set of disc brakes in 2011 so I only have some vague recollections of seeing discs on...

And so it was that on a gloriously sunny day the MacRetro clan had their annual 'Retrobike only'* ride. I had originally offered to organise but life got in the way and thankfully Velo took on the reigns, ably assisted in route choice by ZigZag. So while I had suggested May in the hope that the...
