[jax13]

bit of a clearout to fund some new wheels......

first up, a frame i didn't think i'd sell...

'99 orange gringo in blue / purple powdercoat 17" c-t; 21.5" top tube; in very good condition, with a small amount of decal damage and a couple of very small stone chips.

bare frame £85 posted
frame, koski post & QR £95 posted (seatpost only £12.50 posted & qr £5 posted)

next, 100mm travel bomber supercomp forks with adjustable rebound / damping. ran these on the above frame for 3 years and they were flawless. will take v's / canti's if you fit the bosses or disc. measured at 18.5" a-c (unfitted)

£45 posted
forks plus headset £55 posted (headset only £12.50 posted

very red ano hope big-uns, 36h laced to an unknown mavic rim, i've been using these with v's hence the paint just starting to rub off. the rear needs a small amount of tlc, one spoke by the valve hole will probably need replacing as it is slightly bent (my guess was from removing a pump, it was like that when i bought them) and it will need a true, front runs nice and straight. these wheels seem pretty much bomb-proof and are just too big and heavy for my clockwork so are going in favour of some mono's. £70 posted (not including skewers or rubber)

struggling for pics for the next half hour or so.... visitors are ruining my afternoon off work!!

they do take discs, i just need to remove the old bolts that were drilled out (i think i actually sent you the discs when i got the wheels!) there are a couple of rough pics on my clockwork build thread in the meantime.

Hi ya Jax. curbishley roses sounds like a lovely plaace, and your bits were posted today,

bit of a tangent but a bump too

right im just building up an 99 gringo with 100mm travel forks, how did yours ride ,what length stem did you use and how tall are you?

steering was fine, if a touch lively at the extremes on the longer stem. i ran a 100 & 120 stem at different points in its life (went longer & onto a flat bar with bar ends from a riser as i wanted to be stretched out a bit more for road use.) i also had 170 crank arms but ran a pretty long seatpost with the seat thrown as far back as it would allow. i'm just over 5'10" and i honestly feel an extra inch or two on the top tube and the frame would be the perfect size for me.

the clockwork i replaced it with feels pretty similar to all intents & purposes but i'm running that on a 0 rise 90mm stem (should have gone a bit longer tbh.)
