    Caramba cranks - what bottom bracket?

    I found this...so, another source. I could not find the answer on BikePro. I may have found it on the other vintage forum... viewtopic.php?f=1&t=275075

    Caramba cranks - what bottom bracket?

    Yep, same cranks. Again, 113mm could be too short, but they worked, at least I thought they worked; out a few hundred kms on them. Very good chance I am wrong bough too. Would love to know the answer.

    Caramba cranks - what bottom bracket?

    Hey, I hope this helps. I am running my Sidewinders with an American Classic 113mm. To be honest, I cannot remember how I got that dimension, maybe from Bikepro...I cannot remember. It seemed to work just fine for me. I had them on my Flying V and there are on my AMP B-2... Hope this helps...

    Mantis Number Produced

    Hi, I would try and get in touch with Shayne...I think he patrols this site sometimes, but is on the MT Bike R Vintage, Classic, Retro forum... There is a Mantis thread there if you did not know. He knows an awful lot about Mantis. When I shared with him my serial numbers, he could tell me...

    Yeti frame & fork / Mantis Frame for My Yo Aquafade

    Hey, hope all is cool. I have a Flying V, and, to be honest, I am not sure if I will be selling it, or building it for my wife and/or daughter, but, I thought I might share it with you just in case the bike is not comfortable for them. The first photo is from when I bought it, many a moon...

    Precision Billet Proshift front and rear derailleur set.

    Re: Hi, I hope all is well. If you are interested, I have a full set - shifters and derailleurs (two silver rear, and black/silver front). One rear derailleur is new, the rest of the set is darn near new as I cannot imagine I have put more than 100 miles on them. Truth be told, I am not...

    AMP frame and fork helped needed

    Hi Gold Trader, Thank you too for your reply. To the best of my ability (for whatever that is worth) I have rebuilt the dampener many times, and rebuilt the fork, and the movement is still there. Perhaps the fork had a rough life before I bought it, not sure. I will have another look...

    AMP frame and fork helped needed

    Thanks D.D. for the reply. I am grateful. I think you are right, that the movement is a combination of all play in the pivots. I was having another look just now, again, and it is the fork that is moving forward, almost expanding a bit, if you will. I will try to construct some kind of...

    AMP frame and fork helped needed

    Dear All, I would like some advice on my AMP Frame (B-2, Mongoose with twin down tubes) and AMP F-3 with carbon legs. I would also like to offer that I am running Bullseye hubs, a King Aheadset (with a "headlock" - that is, a bolt compresses a top and bottom camp so there is no star nut), a...
