Re: BUMP - Postage £15 UK mainland

NOW £175 I bought this new in June 1992 (from Back2Bikes in Great Ayton) and it was my race bike until ‘96. Other bikes came and went, but I’ve always found it hard to lose this one! I need space for a new bike, so this and my XP-8 (different sale) unfortunately have to go. All new parts...

I bought this new in June 1992 (from Back2Bikes in Great Ayton) and it was my race bike until ‘96. Other bikes came and went, but I’ve always found it hard to lose this one! I need space for a new bike, so this and my XP-8 (different sale) unfortunately have to go. All new parts and cables...

The time has come to sell my Proflex XP-8 ! Approximately '96 -'97 Not entirely Retro! Drive train and finishing kit is from 2008 (XT/FSA/Easton EA70) Also a front and rear disc brake conversion using Avid Juicy 5 hydraulics. Rear brake mount is a Hammerhead type made from 316L stainless...

I had a TSUNODA GRAND PRIX. It was a xmas present in the early 80's, bright red with half chromed forks, seat stays and chain stays. Mostly Suntour components, the things i always remember were there headset coming loose all the time, the huge gap between the rear wheel/tyre and seat tube and...

I'm up in Middlesbrough, was watching Bourne Supremecy, lots of gun fire and car chases! First thought, Why is my new flatscreen rocking Second thought, Why is the room rocking Third thought, If said flatscreen falls over and breaks, will insurance pay out and allow me to put money...

Maybe try a Charge, Spoon saddle in tan. Got fantastic reviews and only about £16-20 for the CroMo railed model and £45 for the Ti railed one. http://www.wiggle.co.uk/images/charge-s ... -4-col.jpg Might work out cheaper than recovering unless you "love" that saddle. Mr752

I rode/raced my Proflex 752 from new (1992) as a XC bike with a spot of downhill here and there till 2000 when I bought a Proflex 856. Got to ride a few Cannondales and was always tempted, however yes I thought the ride was harsh and the headshocks were stiff. Definitely not an all day bike...

Try E & I (Equine & Livery) from York. I've insured bikes off and on with them, you can pay monthly and they have different levels of cover which allow you to take your bikes abroad for so many days a year. Think they do require you to DATA Tag your bike which isnt a bad idea. They're on the...

I've used a product called KU-rust from Halfords, you clean any loose surface rust off then paint it on, it looks milky white, it then goes bluey black and the literature says thats it , the rust is stopped dead in its tracks! you can prime and then paint over it. Hope this helps. Mr752
