    Recommendations for someone to restore my '87 Muddy Fox Explorer

    Interesting question. I'm not sure if there are any commercial restoration services. I doubt many bike shops would want to take that kind of work on unless the owner had a personal interest. I wonder if there would be the chance of a local forum member doing it, but there's a whole big can of...

    BoTM Bike of The Month July 2022 - time to vote

    Perhaps just a bit too outré in a field of bangers! As cool as the Zinn is, the competition was very stiff.

    When the bikes are of such high quality it comes down to the finest of margins in choosing who to vote for, and photo quality is one of them. It was the only thing that separated the winner this time for me.

    Facebook Marketplace boils my piss

    When Obi-Wan Kenobi said this he wasn't really talking about Mos Eisley spaceport. He was pre-empting the invention of Facebook.

    Ibis Trials Comp Mountain Bike, 24"/20" wheels

    That is weird AF. Looks totally bonkers, but somehow very cool at the same time! How is that?

    Confirm this isn’t factory welding please?

    You asked if it was a factory weld or a repair. My answer is it's neither. It's a bodge. It may have lasted, but it is still shoddy work of the lowest order. You've asked for an opinion. I've given mine for free. You may not like it, and if so, I give a full money back guarantee. HTH.

    That's not a repair. That's a bodge. And a shitty one at that!

    Saracen kili comp 1997 opinions

    853 with the wishbone rear end? Great frames! I would say that bang for buck there is not much that can compare IME.

    BoTM Bike of The Month April 2022 - nominations

    There's folk on here with BoTM/BoTY wins who have spent absolute fortunes building winning bikes. Bikes built to a standard that would grace any museum in the world. Nothing said except nice bike etc. But as soon as the Pros Closet enters all the petty jealous snidey remarks start! I don't get it!
