    Modern wheelset for classic bike?

    Looking for a new wheelset for a retro/modern build. Anyone recommend something that still has that classic look? Velo Orange looks appealing but not sure what else is out there.

    Wheelset advice (late 50’s)

    So I need a wheelset for a 1959 Holdsworth build. I am totally clueless on all things vintage wheels; all I know is that when it was new it was a 5 speed, thinking 5 or 6 speed but no idea what I’m looking for. Any help or direction in what I should be looking for/what would work for that...

    1959 (I think) Holdsworth Hurricane

    Hi all, So I’ve been a member on the MTB side of the site for ages and know enough to get by about 90’s MTB! However.

    Fat Chance Buckshaver

    Ok so I sold a Buckshaver here recently, it was too small. But I loved it and gave it the treatment for sure. Anyone got a 94 Buck frame in Large? Gotta be 94...probably one of the last of the handbuilt ones. Anyway, here’s hoping

    Orange P7 frame number mystery

    Right so I’ve looked at multiple threads here and there isn’t a consistent answer, so hey why not ask again! I have a P7 frame and was informed it’s a ‘97. It has the split in the seat tube at the rear, which I also understand to have changed around 96/97 time. Frame number on the BB is as...

    Frames for various projects - Kona, Orange, Scott

    Ok so I have a few things I'm after but rather than spam the wanted forum I figure I'd put them all on here. Decided to go for it and see what's out there before I regret it!

    Scott Montana 91/92

    Bit of a long shot this one. My first “proper” MTB and nostalgia can’t keep me away. Size wise, 19” would be ideal....Frame only, frame and fork, whatever you got really! The blue/pink colourway.

    93/94 Orange Prestige Frame 19”

    I’m actually unsure of the exact frame sizes for the Prestige in 94 but approx 19” would be ideal.... Condition not massively important!
