Cr-Mo or Aluminium (can't afford titanium lol) 56-59cm seat tube please and thanks. Rough/Resto project ones considered, as I'm not afraid of hardship. Anyone got one hanging in the shed, or even a frame set? Cheers, Paul. PS I'm in SE Ireland so would require shipment also!

Hi folks, Unashamed roadie here but I picked up a Dawes-era Kirk Revolution (the lower end model with LX components) over the weekend. The frame is fairly tatty but structurally perfect so I'm planning to respray it. Any leads on where I could source repro decals? H Lloyds do a full set but...

anyone got a front mech hanger (held on frame with two screws to allow fitment of braze on mech) and/or a seatpost binder bolt for an early CADEX frame? thanks in advance. Paul

I couldn't shift it. The best mechanic in 100 miles, who's also a mate, couldn't shift it. We're both afaid to apply any more force in case the frame gives up before the bonded bb does. Time for the drill. Campag cartridge bb in a carbon Trek frame. Anyone here had to take this last resort?

Hi all, I was given this frame-set by a gentleman who was retiring from the aftermarket bike components business a couple of years back. He dealt a lot with US aftermarket suppliers. It might be a bit young to be here but I'm hoping someone can shed some light on it. It's my size (57x57) so I...

Hi folks, I'm on the lookout for some vintage LOOK clipless pedals to complete a build. PP66 or PP76 , specifically need pedals in RED colour (PP66 came in white with red rear spring plate, PP76 came in all red). Realistic, non-mortgage prices for pedals you have had left in the shed for...

Hi all, I have the above saddle available, in used but good condition. Needs a clean. From checking online, I gather these sell for ridiculous money. I have no interest in fleecing anyone, so if anyone is interested in a straight trade for a turbomatic 2 saddle (which I am looking for to...

Hello, fellow pedallers and polishers! I'm on the lookout for Raleigh Team replica bikes; TI, Panasonic, Banana...even the Kelloggs Pro Tour! I'm not looking for high-value 531 or 753 framed thoroughbreds...it's the 18-23 or 501 framed replicas I'm more interested in! if anyone has any for...

anybody got some in the shed?

Any body got any thrown in the shed? Or know where I can source a pair? Part number is 56303. Thanks in advance, Paul.

I have a set of Rockshox paris roubaix forks (for 700c wheels) which won't hold air and probably need seals etc replacing at this point, as they are two decades old. other than that, the forks are in excellent aesthetic condition, so it'd be a shame not to renovate them. any pointers on where...

I think the mtb section might be the place to ask this, as ye are more likely than a roadie to have the info on old school suspension! I have a set of Rockshox paris roubaix forks (for 700c wheels) which won't hold air and probably need seals etc replacing at this point, as they are two decades...

Claims to be easy to use and give a decent finish. www.spray.bike

anyone willing to part with a set? 1'' steerer preferable to fit either a 59 or 61cm frame. Thanks, Paul.

Mods, could we start one? there's plenty of us from the emerald isle on the forum. could be a good way to arrange local meetups, spins, parts swaps or help each other with logistics etc

Anyone got any experience of these? TBH I only stumbled across these online recently and I'm intrigued? A gimmick or worthwhile? Irish rural backroads are shocking after the bad winter!

Seasons greetings, oh wise men (and women!) of RB! A Christmas present to myself (vintage set of GP4s laced to Mavic hubs) arrived in the post this morning. The rims have quite a lot of old hardened crusty adhesive on them...any tips or tricks for getting this off before I stick on some new...

Hi folks, I've got an old Europa and a 531 framed Raleigh that I want to repaint. Does anyone have the correct RAL code for the shade of red I need?

I stumbled across a steel frame racing bike yesterday. Don't know what the tubing is, still need to get some pics. Its equipped with early 7 speed shimano brifters and a full shimano 105 groupset, so I'm guessing 1990s? The makers name on the frame is MENET. Any info folks?

Anyone got one they'd part with?
