Ok, let me look through and double check the bit's, I just took the BB out, that is also an XT UN72 I think.

I also have wheels, XT hubs front and back, no damage to the cones, new balls and grease Campag rims with tree-trunk spokes (2mm) and comes with a 7 speed cassette. The shifters are combo/brake/shifters and of course the brakes are cantilever type. there is a straight bar with lovely pink anodized bar-ends.

I'll make you a list because I have other stuff that may be useful, just need to check how useful, if anything is shaxxxed I tend to throw it rather than store it.

I'll be in touch.

Oh-sorry, I missed the hello's I'm in such a rush, the weather is too filthy for riding through cow-shxit so I just did an hour with my dog and walking poles A-La Landlaufen.

Helloooo-------- how do you guys like the colour of the 'Goat' ? did I mention it's a girls bike ?

Oh, and yes, Proflex is coming up after coffee-break.

Brilliant, just answered my next question, anyways, here is my pride and joy, I love this bike, it never goes off-road these days but where I live I can ride the road for two hours and only meet the odd tractor, it's heaven.









I have photos of the stuff that came off the mountain Goat, am I allowed to post it here ? is there a sales section I need to go to. Sorry, I haven't had time to explore.

 

[longbeech]

Yes there is a for sale section and a few rules to follow but I would be very interested in all the XT stuff. you can click on the pm button below and send me the details ....
Thanks

That is a fine looking bike you have.

Have never seen one set up with slicks, is it fast?

Welcome to the forum and enjoy but watch out this place can be dangerous

 

[Richard]

Here is the stuff anyway, I'll risk a keel-hauling for posting it inappropriately particularly as I'm a 'Newbie'.

I hate that title, can I be a virgin ? Novice ? Probationary ? Et-Al, anything but 'Newbie'.

The extra hub is an XTR that is useable but starting to make a noise, freehub body was added just before I took it off the Proflex and added the Hope stuff. Everything is working, nothing is shaxxed, rings on the chainset are about half worn, the BB is a UN71 and almost new (68mm shell)

The wheels are in good working order with no damage whatsoever, the cassette is a recent addition and not worn. The races are clean and undamaged with lot's of life left and the rims as you can see are just worn past the anodising.

Anything I missed ?

Give me £75 and I'll get them delivered to you, ok, I'm a 'Newbie' and no-one knows me. Check me out with anyone who has been around for some time at this forum.

I'm 'waverider'

Are you selling the Goat barends? They would be ideal for my Goat?

 

[Richard]

Sorry

I'm just going to do penance, 30 minutes with a birch-broom out in the rain and rub sheep-shxt into the wounds for posting inappropriately.
