I can measure mine today, and have a “large” and “medium” - Alternatively the catalogues are on here somewhere.

STX RC really was a fabulous and very under-rated groupset. Bit of a game changer in my opinion, and the chromica finish was far classier than the price point deserved. P7's and their nickel finish do pick up surface rust (even the painted ones with stone dings) but if you're prepared to put...

We’re hardy folk is RB’ers. We’ll be fine. After all we survived the 90’s when most of us had a very bad bout of purple-itis. Some have never fully recovered.

In the meantime, and on the basis that it must all be worth bobbins now, I’ll gladly give a free home to any RC31’s that are currently endangering the lives of our RB community. And Super V Ravens too. Lots of them please. Nasty old things…

Proper score for a tenner. Should clean up a treat. I have a bit of a P7 problem, in as much as that I have too many of them!

Do you have the frame - if so has it got a serial number? There'll be a Kona-head somewhere who can possibly interpret it. Lots of the old catalogues online here and on issu to back ref and check.

I'm not convinced it's a Kona tbh (watch me get proven wrong!) Rear mech hanger doesn't look right, and the headtube is way long with funky geometry when you compare to the seat-tube. Welds don't look great either but I'm not an alu kona expert (my knowledge is limited to the 1997 Lava Dome...

Is that a radially spoked rear? Maybe I've been living in a cave, but I've never seen that before. Fronts, yes - rears no. Lovely bike BTW

Some nice bits, but £700 I lolled into my cornflakes

Bump with pics and in case anyone has any ideas? Loads of tread on them but not sure I’d ride them. For a catalogue build though they’d do well by is there a market?

For a 30 year old tyre I have a set of 1.5 folders that have plenty of tread. Appreciate it isn’t 2.0 but they have the rust colour walls, which are showing their age. Rubber is perishing a little. An option for you I guess as these can’t be that common to find. Happy to send pics but they’re...

Bought a top from Gary. Great condition, well packed and send quick. Spot on

For 180 Euro that's an absolute steal for what is essentially DH royalty back in the day, stick a big ring on the triple and give it as much welly as you can. Looks very tidy, though I'd imagine there's a fair bit more travel up front than behind.

I’ve got a black manitou SX ti (I think) that came off a P7 - 1 inch threaded. From memory it’s decent but can dig it out tomorrow and check

None that have been submitted, it was more a question of whether I could submit a bike that had already been in two. On the provenance of the submissions though, I wouldn't have stood a chance :)
