WTD - budget bits - Swaps/Px/cash

[BobCatMax]

Wanted - stuff for my Trek 7000. It's going to be a winter/pub hack, so cheap as chips please, not really too fussed about condition, as long as it works!

Things I need -

Forks

1 & 1/8, steerer doesn't have to be too long. (frame is 18") Would love a disc compatible rigid up front. Would also consider something close to the original, a Tange Big Fork S. Also considering something air based, and this item doesn't have to be as cheap as the rest

Brakes, I will eventually need. Would like to try some hydraulic discs on this as it's for winter. These aren't currently essential

and as for the above, will also be looking for a rear disc adapter.

mudguards looking for some full tyre length jobbies

Still not got my swaps list together

The other thing I have for swaps is my time. Some of you may or may not know I can draw a little. If anyone wants custom decals made up, or anything that Gil doesn't have on file done, I am happy to do a deal.

All my work is printed by Gil after your approval. Talk to rojo, CTK, Stumpjumper1990, rosstheboss, Pete or Cyfa if you want to confirm my credentials

right, after all that ...WHYG?

I can help you out...

I've a brand new in packet single speed kit here, comprising a proper s/speed 16T cog with all the spacers for 8/9 speed and a lockring. I also have a lovely gold KMC chain (single speed specific 1/8" width) which has been used for c.25miles only. I can post you both the above for a measly £13.50...

Or if you want to save £2.50, I can send the aformentioned single speed kit with a brand new in box KMC S1 1/8" chain instead for just £11. Either way, both the 1/8" chains will work perfectly with the cog and will be fine with a standard 3/32" chainring.

I don't have a chain tensioner or any suitable forks, but I do have a complete set of Hayes Stroker Trail hydraulic brakes, going cheap and listed here:

http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... ?p=1219985

The brakes are as described in that thread and I can do a really good deal on the lot! and probably chuck in a few extra little bits to sweeten the deal (coloured cable end crimps, ahead spacers, bar end plugs, poss. grips?)

Just let me know if of any interest!?

Cheers,
Al

Wow, wasn't expecting a response so soon!

Definitely interested in the ss kit got any pics?

Not so sure about the brakes just yet. Will have to have a think as still not sure about how it's going to go :?

I've realised I'll have a spare set of HS11's once the missus' bike gets it's upgrade and I'm also realising that my budget is tighter than a really tight thing

PM coming in re: the kit, Al, ta very much
