    Sold Syncros Powerlite Fork - 1 1/8"

    So time to move a rare gem on. I have no immediate plans for it, and nothing I'm actively seeking would suit it more than any of the other options in the bins, so, my shortsightedness may yet be your gain! I'm posting these here for a few days first, before adding a listing to the usual...

    Wanted Bog standard 1" Chris King NoThreadset in Black and some Paul Chim Chims!

    Anyone got an affordable 1" CK NoThreadset in black for me (all logo variations considered)? Also, I've got a hankering to try some Paul Chim Chim's for some reason... Even tho I've been anti bar ends my entire life! Must be getting old. I think it's the stash compartment that really does it...

    '96ish Custom Bontrager CX

    So, first of all... Mods: Am I okay to post this here!? It is a Mid-90s bike. It is a Bontrager. I have built it up like a skinny-tire ATB, but, hey, I guess feel free to banish this thread to the road forum, if you must! It is a 700c bike, so I do get it. I just felt like it might be of...

    Running XTR M900 Hubs with a Modern 10/11 Speed Cassette

    Has anyone ever done this? I was thinking of using a bargain M900 wheelset to solve a temporary problem, with a modern XT 10-speed cassette (11t small cog) but read this on Sheldon's site and it gave me pause: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/k7.html#hyperdrivec What do we think? Will I need to...

    Wanted Chris King 1" NoThreadset or Gripnut in Silver

    Could take either, as I have a Gripnut top already, but I'm looking for 1" silver CK. Just cups would be fine, too! Just needs to be the more modern version, rather than an early one, so the diameter of cups and nut match up!

    Wanted Campy MTB Quick Release Skewers.

    Anyone got a pair in moderate condition they'd be interested in moving on? This kind, please:
  7. pw_pw_la

    Wanted Wanted: 100/130 Spaced Hubset. Something interesting. Something good. Something silver.

    No rims required! Anyone got anything fun I should look at? Cassette-style only, please. I'd take 7700 Dura-Ace or similar as an option too. But an MTB pair would be cooler.

    Gentlemen, I'm having some 700c tire issues...

    So, this bike I'm building, well, it's an absolute d!ckhead. Every single thing I try is not the right thing to try. Although I'm sort of having fun problem solving each new headache, regardless. The latest development is that, despite being a CX frame, and despite what I've been led to...

    Wanted Cinelli Volare SLX In Perforated White Leather

    Don't suppose anyone has an original one of these, in moderate condition, they'd be willing to sell? Also interested in other white/cream leather saddles, ideally perforated. Doubling up my WTB from the road forum, just in case!

    Wanted Dura-Ace 7700 bits and a nice vintage wheelset!

    Right, go easy on me in here boys... I'm brand new to this skinny tire lark, and I'm building a cross bike that I need a few bits for... First of all, a nice wheelset in 100/130 spacing. Ideally something like Dura-Ace 7700 laced to older Open Pro's or similar, but really I'm open to anything...

    Wanted FD-M730 28.6 Band Clamp

    So I've got a lovely M730 front mech, the banded clamp kind (Alpine), but it's too big for the bike I plan to use it on. Which means I'm looking for a smaller band, in the 28.6 size, so that I can switch them out. Anyone happen to have one of those floating around in their tubs of random...

    Wanted M730/32/35 SG Chainrings (Silver)

    Anyone got any classic silver M730, Etc., SG chainrings (non-Biopace version) in immaculate condition they'd be interested in selling? Ideally a full set, but if you've got a loosey floating around I'd still be interested.

    Wanted Desperately Seeking A Classic IRD Seatpost in Silver - 26.8

    So, I have a new project I'm about to begin. A really nice one, I think. And the best part about that was that I had, or thought I had, almost all the things I wanted/needed already in the parts bins. Turns out I did not. And I'm now looking for quite a few things! One of those is a classic...

    For Sale For Sale: Early Bontrager Race OR, Chrome Race Fork, and Bontrager/Hyperlite Stem/Bar Combo

    So, time to move a few things on, in order to hopefully offset some costs for something pretty special coming in... Ideally I'm looking to sell these all together as a frameset, although they arrived in my possession separately. They're not without a few quirks, admittedly, but should be an...

    Wanted Koski or Koski ATB DuraTrac Fork

    Well, if you don't ask/try, you'll never know/get... Right? Would really like to try a Koski on a bike I'm building. Now, I don't suppose I'll ever get lucky enough to get an original, but maybe someone out there has the latter Tange-produced ATB-stamped version? I know these came on '89...

    Reimagining a 1988 Merlin Mountain

    Well, with the Bontrager finished and being ridden to within an inch of its build, and the Brodie refresh semi-stalled waiting for a few key components to show up from their various international locales, I figured it was time to start a thread for a new project. Brace yourselves, this is going...

    Sorted Dia Compe SS-5 Levers - Black

    Anyone got any they'd be inclined to move on? Decent to good to great condition, ideally! : )

    I'm sure they're about to post it any second themselves, but...

    https://theradavist.com/1988-wtb-wildcat-prototype/ Probably the best vintage bike I have ever seen. I could actually cry just looking at it.
