Oh that's really helpful, thanks. I'll get some better measurements later and DM them over. 👍

Thanks. Taper looks to be 1.5 x 1.5mm... not sure it's worth a custom part, I might try and find a substitute and see if it works.

Hi I picked up a bike, lots of unpleasant ratcheting feel coming from the front. On inspection the headset is missing the compression ring and looks like they'd over tightened to compensate. It's a generic headset made under licence by Tange but no more info on it... will any replacement ring...

Yes a shame, otherwise it looks good.

Hi I'll take the 9speed SRAM cassette please. Thank you.

Can confirm this, I tried to contact them about a recent order last week but my account no longer exists on their system. Customer service emails come from Sports Direct now. Can't imagine you'll have much luck, but maybe they'll send you a giant mug as a replacement.

Springs (not mine) ... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116060096908?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l1120&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=137da0ce3ade41eb921cefc467322faf&bu=43180793978&ut=RU&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20240206015222&segname=11021

I look forward to seeing how this one scrubs up too. Does anyone have any recommendations for places that will fix the rivnut in the UK? I've got exactly the same issue with my Litespeed. Mine is a much later model and thankfully in good nick all except for the rivnut... maybe it's a known...

Had a FB episode where messages were exchanged for a while, then all of a sudden the seller said it had to go within the next day since he was going to be out of the country. As there was no time for me to pickup he offered to post it instead if I paid online. Sudden time limits make me very...

Noodles yes but don't know what I've done with the bolts, sorry.

Pics attached, one set of blocks are good but the other does need replacing. £20 + post sound about right?

I've got two pairs of LX brakes, if you can hang on a day or two I'll dig them out.

Yikes...

This seller frequently has nice Ti bikes going for good prices. I politely messaged a while back about one and got back a very stroppy reply. Even if it was next door with an 80% discount I wouldn't bother. Don't like the idea of riding something and being permanently reminded of an unsavoury...

Blimey that thread looks like it's stirred up a right old (new) hornet's nest.

It's completely fine because it's not new, it's USEd... well it works for me anyway.

Coincidence... I was just looking myself. Nice stuff but the site is a bit weird e.g. the new Sumo (alu) seatpost in the Outlet section is half the price of the seconds version in the Retro section. Best to have a good look round.

Hi could I take the CNC 125mm stem please. Sending a DM, thanks.

This one up the road from me has been puzzling me for a while. We should get the owners together, it could be a match made in heaven.
