I need a 1” threaded headset, XT or Chris King for the BLX. Must be mint or NOS. Got a 1-1/8th NOS XT if anyone wants to swap. Need Specialized Ground Control Extreme tyres for the Pace and an English silver rear hub such as Hope or Middleburn etc
Does anyone know if the HS33's can be stripped to the point where they can be re-powder coated? Cos if the can I can get them done cheap and reprint the decals :)
I've had just about every type of Pace fork and the one thing I'll say is keep 'em away from water! MXCD's were my personal favourites but RC36 Pro Class were the best performers for me
For me the bike I'll always remember was my custom built RSP 853. From what I can remember the build was:
Electric blue 853 frame
Pace RC36 Pro Class
Chris King headset
Control Tech stem, post and bars
Flight saddle
Hope/Mavic 217 CD's
Magura Racelines
Conti Cross Country tyres...

Yo! Pretty keen to get a few laps in at Mayhem this year if anyone needs an extra man? I could bring my 6 x 3, 3 x 3 gazebo and my PA system to include 'Eye Of the Tiger' if you think they'll be of use :lol:
It's a 90-91 Dyna Tech for sure, they were the only ones with the wedge shape head tube lugs. Possibly an Encounter. The Sentinel didn't have a wishbone rear stay IIRC and the others didn't have mudguard bosses.
