Tonight a strange thing happened; strange and beautiful. But I would like to start from the beginning... It was the early 90s, I was 13 at most and I spent the best part of my time listening to the Led Zeppelin and Queen cassettes that my cousin recorded for me. The rest of the time I was...

Hello everybody, I got this nice Raleigh in pretty good shape, shimano everything etc… Does someone know a bit more about it? I can’t find anything on catalogues! Thanks

Nice find! Looks like a 1993 to me.

Chainset, brakes, rear derailleur. Not sure about the hubs.

1992 850 Antelope Picked it up right now, zoom in to see why😂

Thanks, I’m not sure it’s that one. The ones in the link @winjohn posted have the SPECIALIZED logo on the side of the cage 😅 EDIT: yours looks like the road cage while the mountain cage is chunkier

I know, I’d like to rip the dork disc off but it’s in such good conditions I just can’t do it…😅

Thanks. Since you brought it up, I was wondering whether the crank bolts were original since the 88 catalogue shows the Browning crank. I should have some Deore caps somewhere, that might do as well…

I can’t believe I finally managed to test ride it. I replaced the rim tape, new tubes and tyres. It still needs some tune up and a lot of polishing but it looks amazing to me! 🥳

Hi, I’m looking for one black mountain cage to match the 1988 Team Specialized Catalogue specs. Is anyone shipping to Italy for a reasonable price? Thanks

Thanks, I’m still not sure what to do about this. I’m not a big carbon fiber fan and the stem and cranks appear to be stuck. Don’t know how difficult it would be and - I was going to have it stripped out by a pro but at the moment I’d rather focus on my 1988 team Stumpjumper and the complete...

Hi, I never posted about it but I recently got a 1992 TREK 8700 Composite in pretty poor conditions. So poor I’m still not sure I want to do something with it. The only good news is the seatpost’s missing, which is way better than a stuck one…

Wheels: ready Smoke Classic X2: ready Rim protector: Ok, maybe I need some rim tape. 😂 Any suggestions?

…I’m working on the bike in the spare time to get ready for the aforementioned event. I cleaned it, degreased everything, lubricated what was meant to be (farewell greasy grips). I still have some fine tuning and polishing to do but I agree with most of you who suggested to keep the patina...

Thanks, I wish my NTH project was that far ahead. I’m focusing on my ‘88 Team Stumpjumper, then i will carefully tear it down and let a pro do some magic with the frame. Since you’re mentioning Dario Acquaroli, next week we’ll be celebrating him with the Vintage Ride MTB 👍🏼

I can’t believe how hard it is to find some information about Bianchi NTH bicycles. Has someone ever seen period catalogues?🤷‍♂️

Just when I decided on selling some bikes that I wasn't particularly attached to in order to free up some space, this pops up: It’s a bit rusty but the drivetrain is in very good conditions for its age. I’m still not sure it’s just surface rust but I love NTHs so much I’m thinking of...

Living in Italy makes the RB buy/sell section a marvellous hassle because of taxes and incredibile import fees…🥲

Lovely one! I’m leaving the complete answer to the real experts but the Team Stumpjumper was the only Specialized MTB in the 1988 lineup with lugged tange prestige frame.
