    Forks: Pace RC36 ProClass II & Scott rigid - PRICE DROP

    As it says' I'm selling two sets of forks: 1) Pace RC36 Pro Class II. These were originally supplied on my lovely Sunn Revolt, but have had very little use in the last 5 or 6 years as I have been focusing on the dark side with skinny tyres. They are working well - nice and smooth, but are...

    Silly things to do with a Marin (pt 1)

    This was a '92 Marin Bear Valley SE. It was my second mountain bike (my first was a Tushingham B-52). This became my wifes, and recently became mine again. As I've already got a road bike, a 'proper' mountain bike (Sunn Revolt) and single speed, I decided this one would be someting more...

    Here is a pair of Manitou 2s, off a Marin Bear Valley SE from about '92. The steerer is 1 1/8, and is 150mm long, threaded. But as you know, the steerer can be changed. The elastomers are fairly knacked, but it comes with a few spares - though not a full set. You can get new ones from...

    Titanium - strong enough?

    OK, so titanium is meant to the wonder metal - strong and light. We know that it can undergo 50,000 zillion flex cycles without busting - see the pivotless designs like the Moots YBB . But - it is strong enough for really mission critical applications? I ask for views, because of an accident...

    Wanted - one X517 citron rim - 36 hole

    As the title says, has anyone got a Mavic X517 rim in citron? I'm not too fussy on condition, as the one wheel I have is well used. Needs to be citron to match, and needs to be 36 hole to go with the coaster brake hub I've just got, so I can finish my Marin Bear Valley --> beach cruiser...
