🤔 some black with purple? To change … too much blue? Hubs in any colour? The Navy blue from Chris King was amazing and perhaps some purple in grips and Hope parts like brakes Something like this, some purple but not too much.

I don´t have the bicycle anymore to check the year in serial number. But no, mine has no disc brakes. And was bought there in Germany like the Element 70, both brand new one in late 00´s the other in early 10´s I like the bicycle so much that has to be new the frame, like my 2006 ETSX70. This...

The New handlebar. I have to weight it. It is supone to be under 200gr, arround 180gr

1999? I had the Element TO of that year and the frame as no discbrake adaptor, that was the main reason to change for a Element 70 and the geometry and bearings. Mine has no 3d link logos. 9.8kg of fast amazing bicycle.

Quite nice bicycle, that was many years ago my dream bike, well the STS model. It is a 8 speed drivetrain, shimano and sram has both good chains, I use both in shimano casettes and work both the same. For retro bicycles like this I use to buy the Sram 850 or 870 casettes and chains with...

If I´m honest I don´t know because I will not change the frame of the Sworks for the chisel. So I will end with two bicycles plus the others :D The S works rides fast and I like for that reason. I have to think how to reduce one at least. But for now, I only have a project and some parts...

Quite nice frame and overall bicycle. Some tocuhes and will look and ride amazing. I have tried a dropper post and have one in a bicycle but ... for XC I don´t use too much. It depends on what the terrain is but the geo of my bicycle is enought to go down with normal seat post. You have to go...

Well, in our brain plans works like in A-Team serie, perfect. I want to change the frame of my Sworks 2012 to a aluminium nice one because I´m tired of carbon fibre. The start. This is my daily bicycle. It was 26 but has lot of space so now it is a 27.5: It was supposed to be easy. I get in...

Nice, looks quite good. I´m starting to apreciate that feeling of old stuff. I use to restore with NOS parts, and apart from too expensive, they feel and looks a little bit .... new. Enjoy it!! the age doesn´t matter any more 👍

I don´t know that brand, but I need that brakes and cranks, and the Fron derailleur and the rear and the levers .... holly ... it match my bicycle :oops:

Put one of this light adapters. You will have light and never ever will slip, even without the lock. They have a rubber and works quite well. Avoid cheap chinese ones. Cat eye etc are the best ones.

This is terapeutic, all says I have too many cicycles. And I have stopped to look at clasified in a conuntry that has been named, because I have seen many of the retrobikes I love it. I use to have no more than 10 because more is difficult to maintain or ride every one. I have sold around 16...

Amazing prices, but only for UK ... taxes kills EU sales. Well really they are helping me not to buy more than I do as I have two project on going.

At least you were able to weld the rim. I have a CB wheels with some cracks and no body whant to weld it. You are now more close to finish 👍:)

The lack of anodized parts is anoying .... 33lbs or 14 kg is a lot (and the 29" wheels don´t help in aceleration os twisty single tracks), it doesn´t deserve the "zaska" name. Needs weight reduction and pruple bits ... retro rules in modern bicycles. 😬. PD Enjoy it, looks sturdy👍
