    Can anyone tell me if there is a fork on ebay that fits....

    It’s 148 from where the platform on which the crown race sits to the top. Comparing that to a 17.5” Marin I have here, that could be ideal. Weight appears to be 739g!

    Marin Pine Mountain '95

    Some decent bits. Can’t really see the wheels but, as a unit, my guess is £150.

    Can anyone tell me if there is a fork on ebay that fits....

    I have a crazy light steelnickel-plated one in 1” but it looks like only 150ish steerer so not enough if that’s your head tube length? . I’ll measure the steerer if you’re interested.

    Sardar with disc mounts

    Good buy - not much more than the value of the barcons. The guards and rack are probs £40. Excellent.

    Getting a tyre to seat properly?

    I can’t really help but I feel your pain as I had the same thing with 26” Gravel Kings yesterday. Eventually, after multiple attempts, lashings of soapy water and me being exhausted, I decided good enough is good enough. They still spin ever so slightly eccentric but only a little wobble.

    Withdrawn 2x Crispy Charge Splashbacks 26x1.8 £10. Withdrawn in the interest of public safety.

    Both have decent tread but dry walls. With one the walls have only very minor threads showing. I reckon these are okay to ride.. With the other, there are several patches with threads showing and the worst patch is also damaged on the inside. I would ride these until they failed but most sane...

    It Gravel Jim........89 Marin build

    It couldn’t fail to look nice with that paint job and the super shiny bits. Have you wrapped the stem? Or is it the light? Could have sworn it was a silver shaft on the last pic. Interesting to hear the ratios are satisfactory. What have you got there - 36x11-32? The lack of chain drop is...

    It Gravel Jim........89 Marin build

    The Suntour 1x looks the best imho but this is a situation where function is more important. My experience is you’ll get chain drop with 1x unless using a narrow wide ring (or a clutch rear mech).

    It Gravel Jim........89 Marin build

    Nice to see that frame back in the limelight. I’m thinking about a similar conundrum with a late 90s unthreaded steerer Marin: bad back considerations, how to get drop bars up, shifting options etc etc. So pulling up a chair to enjoy how you square the circle.

    What are these little seatpost bolts called and where can I get one?

    I don’t know what that bit is called but I’ve only ever seen them sold complete. They can have different bolt widths, beware.

    For Sale 1978 World Cup Album

    I remember that album - brings back the memories from a childhood bedroom. Strange how Hungry and Austria and Scotland even got a double page and England and Germany only a reduced area. An early example of protected image rights perhaps. I could never afford to get close to completing an...

    Deore XT cassette body help

    I’m sure an expert will be along. I’m not one. I seem to remember however that they are not serviceable and the best way to improve matters is to dribble in some heavy-ish oil while rotating the freehub, with it tilted appropriately.
