Ye Yes, Woodrup/Bob Jackson do build in 853. ..no need to be 'certified', though, Reynolds will sell to anyone. They charge £110 for a new top tube. I imagine a retrofitted towel rail would be around the same. https://www.woodrupcycles.com/renovations/ All the best,

Yes, still here doing the repairs and such. PM me (Click my name to go to my profile page, then 'Start Conversation'), and we can go from there. All the best,

...and the brake blocks are still available. Certainly from Tarty Bikes (https://www.tartybikes.co.uk/hs33_brake_pads/magura_hs33_pads_pair/c4p623.html) and probably others. All the best,

Hi Andi, Paypal friends &family to dan@danson.cc with your address and I'll get them posted off for you. On the Maguras, they are mineral oil, so pretty friendly to bleed. Just need to cot the hose, fit a new olive and flush out any air bubbles. There's a technical manual with instructions in...

If you can find an original part, you'll either need to find some pre-ISO caliper and hub, or convert the Fournales adapter to ISO like the one I did above. All the best,

My IGES file for the Fournales fitting adapter to ISO. Feel free to download from my Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/p1aqh7szqc6jo9475ksq5/Fournales-ISO-Adapter-Part-1.iges?rlkey=atwc56rri2e10saus4jb7zmcx&dl=0 It would be a hugely expensive part to have just one made. 3D printed in...

Hi Andi, The holes are 3.1mm diameter at 14.5mm centres, so designed to drop straight into the old holes. All the best,

Mid-80s Dawes whiling away it's sunset years in the warmth of Menorca: All the best,

Leaning casually in Vienna a few months ago🙂 All the best,

Many thanks, both of you. :) Really useful. I've been asked to make a repro fork and want to get it right. Al the best,

Can someone measure the tube diameter of Accutrax fork blades for me, please? Presumably Inch size, but it's hard to confirm if it's 1" or 1-1/8" from pictures. All the best,

I have a spare fork spring, happy to match your Fleabay find price + postage. Middling black or firmer red available, as I'll just fit the other one back in my fork, which is not one of my ridden AMPs. For the record, here's the full spec for the fork springs that I put together: All the best,

Looks like they do 48mm RnR in both 622/700C and 584/650B, so a little closer to fatter version of the Nokian https://brucegordoncycles.bigcartel.com/product/650b-x-48mm-rock-n-road-tire All the best,

Hi Graham, a scan of the head badge would be really useful. I have someone who can rebuild them pretty much from scratch. Font etc shouldn't be a problem, and the elephant is clear and undamaged, but what is the little graphic on the side? My brain is not parsing it as anything. All the best,

Justin Components hub :) 🤔 ...I haven't been able to find any info at all about this brand. Bought from the US, pretty fat axle ends, so presumably some sort of 'downhill' suspension mod. All the best,

I'm a big fan of the Royal Enfield Revelation. Definitely one of the more elegant 1960s small wheelers. Currently looking for my own one for a resto-mod, but here's a fine example from the Facebook users group: All the best,

Happy to have a look...biggest problem is usually getting the internal gas purge right, but at least the inside of fork legs should be pretty clean, unlike chainstays and BB shells. It would be welding...Ti doesn't braze. All the best,

I'd be up for this, too. There are a couple of things that aren't yet confirmed for July, but if I'm around, I'm in :) All the best,

Yes, sorry, I forgot to post an announcement here:confused: Here's one with a tired and weathered original. The repros aren't as blue as looks on the pic. Plenty still left. :) £4 each + £3 UK postage...so £15 posted for a full set of 3. All the best,

I have a Post-mount one spare: All the best,
