    Revisiting DDS3 - a 1992 Trek 9000 Fork

    No, that's just dirt. I updated the pictures above. Even with the valve pushed down, I can't see a clip of any sort. It looks like there's two nuts though.

    Revisiting DDS3 - a 1992 Trek 9000 Fork

    I tried that, I pumped it to about 100psi and nothing happened. It looks dangerous tho lol The top cap/valve bit rotates left and right (I assume to adjust compression) but it doesn't unscrew... What do you call "circlip"? I appreciate it... The first picture shows the valve pulled up and...

    Revisiting DDS3 - a 1992 Trek 9000 Fork

    I got this from Sutherland's Handbook: So I can't figure out how to unscrew the adjuster rod, and then I assume to fill the stanchion up with oil

    Revisiting DDS3 - a 1992 Trek 9000 Fork

    I've done my research on this and unfortunately I can't find much in terms of servicing this fork. I know it's a Showa fork made for Trek for a 2-3 years total, and I also know that Trek did come with a manual and instructions on how to service the fork, but I can't find any online or real...

    The Lightest Frame I've Owned

    I assume someone of these lighter frames are for road bikes not mtb as I don't recognize them. I should've said "the lightest mtb frame I've owned" The Klein is cool, though mine is I think newer and don't plan to ride it lightly... If I end up building it. Was just curious how it would do on...

    The Lightest Frame I've Owned

    My 2001 model weighs about 1630g which is disappointing given the 5-6 year older brother Pulse weighs 100g less. What did you do with your Klein Attitude? Xc or trail? I'm torn between building up a flashy expensive Klein of moderate weight or a beat up GF Supercaliber (frame in OP) with...

    90s Trek 9500 Rear Suspension

    This was one unbelievable bust. Only the frame and the fork were original. It was incredibly sad to see how this bike was stripped of the only thing it had going for it - the XTR groupset. But I shouldn't be surprised, there a couple of threads including one here suggesting "a waste of...

    90s Trek 9500 Rear Suspension

    My thoughts too. This lady is selling 3-4 bikes and I'll be checking it out tomorrow, but I wonder what else is not original. Also the rubber boots over the stanchions don't seem to in the catalogue's pictures.

    90s Trek 9500 Rear Suspension

    Apologies for the bad quality, does this look like the original rear suspension? Also would you say it's a 1992 model?

    The Lightest Frame I've Owned

    I'll make sure I weigh it again after I strip all the paint off. Lol

    The Lightest Frame I've Owned

    Pre year 2000 mountain bike frame that is... and you would think it's carbon fiber viewtopic.php?f=1&t=394020, or a klein, to my surprise, it's a 1997 Gary Fisher Supercaliber 16.5in: 1540 grams!

    Marin Team Paint Job Gone Bad

    Had it professionally powder coated, added waterslide stickers and sprayed it myself with PlastiKote Clear. A few months later the clear coat started coming off. You can see it looks like snow flakes. Questions: - why did that happen? Was it because I did not light sand the powder coat layer...

    Not for a '93 model: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=385209 For the '99 my bet is a 30.9 but I don't know for sure.
