Hi All Following on from my earlier post in a way. Please suggest a fork with V-Brake fittings to suit my 1999 Kona Explosif. I'm wanting something modern with a budget of £300. My plan is to build a low cost XC bike based on the 1999 Explosif for me to get back into my cycling. The fork can be...

Hi All I'm wanting to get back in the saddle again after long break and thought I'd dip my toe in the 'Modern' hardtail arena. I've been on a few Retro rides with guys who have had the orange and white Cotic Soul bikes and everyone seems to have nothing but good feedback about them. So my...

Monday night pop quiz. Guess what I just bought to use as a work bike with an electric front wheel kit fitted:

Wanted for my 1988 Specialized Rockhopper work bike. Any old tatty bar mounted 6 speed shifters. I'm not wanting to spend too much as it's my work bike so no offers of £50 XT units please hehe. I'm fitting an electric front wheel kit and need to remove the original and integrated Exage brake /...

Hi all I'm considering adding an E-Bike kit to a 1988 Specialized Rockhopper (Blue) which is to be used as my daily commuter. As I'm office based I'm trying to not arrive at work all sweaty etc. I know some of you have added E-bike kit's to your rides so can you help a brother out a little and...

I'm still trying to find a Humu. Just 'sayin.

Hi All I'm wondering if any one has a nice 1" alloy seat post they would be happy to let go, suitable for a 1965 Moulton Deluxe. If you can help please post an image :) I have lot's of spares myself so I'm happy to swap / Trade or pay for one. Thanks Trebz

Hi All Are there any knife hobbyists or collectors in the group? I'm in the market for a new pocket knife (UK Legal) and thought I'd ask if any of you are enthusiasts before I go to the online market. Regards Trebz

Hi all Can you help me with a price / velue for these bar ends please. I know they are hard to come by but was wondering if it would be worth keeping them or letting them go as I have no bikes that they would suit. I'm selling off some quick win items to fund my Moulton Deluxe bike restoration...

Hi all I think it's a 1977, not 100% sure. Note that the saddle has been removed and replaced with another. Surplus to requirements. Pick up only from East Yorkshire. PM me for address details. The bike is sold as seen in the attached images. It's standard as far as I can tell and was bought...

New to Trebz's stable. The 1965 Moulton Deluxe. I do need to confirm the year ASAP. I've only had a quick look around the bike to make sure the frame was crack free. I will be renovating the bike and I'm planning on a full strip and re spray using my 1988 Specialized Rockhopper as inspiration...

Hi all Do we have any Moulton enthusiasts in the group? 1960's - 1970's era. I'm thinking of buying an old one to work my restoration magic on. Just a little project to hopefully kick start my interest again :) I wasn't sure if this post should be in the Retro Road section or not so I posted...

Hi all Can you suggest a quality and fully registered Reynolds frame builder in the UK please? I remember there being one in North Links or Yorkshire somewhere who is a Reynolds specialist but I can't find one. I have a plan to convert my 1999 Kona Explosif into a Humu by having a Reynolds...

Hi All Can you help me identify this please. I'm ok with off road but on road I'm not really the best guy.... A link to the manufacturers catalogue etc would be ideal, thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen.

Hi All Another project for us all to think about. My 1999 Kona Explosif is due some frame repair and a respray. My idea is to have the small dent in the top tube filled by a frame builder, I have a local Reynolds approved frame chap who can do this for me then have the frame powder coated. I...

Moulton TSR A8 - Does anyone have any experience of them?

Hi All Does anyone have a black or brown Charge Spoon? As close to 'As New' condition. I'm open to cash purchase or swaps. Or a Brooks. I have a few Retro saddles in the loft, Club Roost Carbon Fire etc etc TIA Trebz

Thoughts? I was thinking of the V-Brake version. Just how good a ride are they? Would it be a better ride than a 1999 Kona Explosif Reynolds 853 ?

Hi All I'm working on a build for my pal, I need a rear coaster wheel that's smaller than 26". Does anyone have anything? TIA Trebz
