I would say definitely in the £1500 to £2000 mark for something with that originality.

This was about 8 years ago when my 71 year old Dad( a road biker at heart) tried mountain biking for the first time. He will be 80 this August and is still riding.

I've never sold any of my projects (much to the consternation of my wife!) I will need to educate my kids on what each of my bikes is and their worth as they will be the one's disposing of them when I go off to the great bicycle shop in the sky ;)

Sorry I've sold a few but kept the one's I want

Combined trip to the tip( oh the excitement 😅) and Gil to pick up the decals...looking a bit more like it now Just starting to cable up and pondering whether I should use the stem cable guide ( it wasn't used before) and how long the cable outer needs to be ( below shown for illustration so...

They all went to me I'm afraid

Totally😉

Hopefully a couple of bikes in the pipe line (negotiations pending)...one interesting but a retro build...one a retro-mod that is really going to divide opinions ( but you'll have to PM me about that one as will definitely be under wraps until nearly finished)

No but hopefully my deft touch means someone's tooth comes flying out in the process🦷🥊

🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for the warning. Once I get the new tool I will give it a go but I will always have an eye on not putting too much force into it. With my profession I like to think I have a feel for manual forces as too much and my patient ends up with a broken jaw😱

Lovely to hear from you Captn Spud...As you know I am a bit of a "Bike Tart" so MAAS is my cream of choice😍 And...what Frames...what wheels? Nothing to see (well as far as the other half is concerned)....you should see what's in the pipeline...I'm really setting myself up for a backlash😉

Yep, been lusting after one for many a year

I've been looking for a 909 for many years, very similar to the 1992 Scott prototype downhill bike

Guy Redshaw knows quite a bit about SBikes https://diaryofacyclingnobody.com/sbike-prototypes-electric-sbikes-really/

The Betsy's were a bit too late year wise for the frame...but one day will own a pair and find a suitable late 90's bike😎

Just some standard household silicone would do the job. Just needs to be enough to stop the pads moving but not too much that you can't get them out when they need replacing

Had a further go this evening without success so did a bit of googling and bought this You can clamp it on via the square taper and should give me better leverage. The frame is currently drive side down with WD40 soaking so I'll report back once I get the tool

The non drive side came out with a little persuasion, looks like a sealed unit

Will do if I ever get the damn BB out😅
