    Antwack’s 1998(?) GT LTS 2000

    Wonder if with the Bombers the front and rear shocks are a bit mismatched as my recollection is them running a Judy variant, and even the XL.

    Short rear MTB mudguard recommendations?

    What about one of the ass-saver type things that clips under the saddle, and looks a bit like a duck tail? I've got one on my modern and it works quite well.

    Clockwork Fork knowledge (looking for)

    I have a Clockwork of that era that had RST forks on, which were heavy and not brilliant. My 98 P7 had Manitou Spyders which weren't bad but a bit flexy. 98 is more than likely a 1 1/8 ahead - so plenty of choice. The unwritten rule, of course, is Pace forks on an Orange... ...unless you go...

    Wanted Black orange supercross

    Sorry, missed this - thanks for the offer. Funny as I also have one on my wife's bike, but I'm pretty sure she'd notice :)

    Chris King NoThreadSet Replacement Bearing?

    Is it an urban myth that BITD King bearings were "for life"? (I may have made that up, and it's not relevant in the second hand market) I'd go second hand and sell the bits you have as spares.

    Another P7…. was a 1995 racer, will be a PMX [March Update]

    So having seen another short head-tubed Orange on eBay with vectors, I’m kind of glad I haven’t progressed that idea. This one would have probably come with Manitous and I reckon someone’s swapped in the vectors. Looks like a bit of a Frankenbike and I’m not sure it’d ride too well…

    Sold Girvin Vectors (ODS)

    Selling these as they just won’t work on my P7 build. They have been around a few on the forum. Blue paint will strip and vectors do polish up nicely. The previous owner has had a go (see pics) but they’d do better with some paint stripper and a good amount of polishing. Seem to move well and...

    Which bike helmet do you have for retro riding?

    +1 for fox flux I have four smashed helmets mounted above my garage door. Serves as a reminder (that I don’t need) to always wear one. Wish I still had my tequila sunrise Giro Hammerhead SC from 1989 ish though.
