My Cannondale Hooligan

Thanks. The front hub is a 28H Sun Ringle SRC and the rear is a 32H Halo Spin Doctor. Relatively inexpensive hubs.

This thread has been quiet for a while so here's my Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo:

Hello As per my thread title I'm looking for a Muddy Fox Alu Pro frame or complete bike, size large. The frame needs to suit 1 1/4" steerer diameter forks. Thanks, Richard

Hello All Back in the 90s I had a Muddy Fox Alu Pro fitted with lovely rigid steel forks with a 1 1/4" diameter steerer. Unfortunately I cracked the frame and rather than getting it repaired I took it to the local tip, (and all these years later I'm still irritated with myself for not keeping...

Yes that looks beyond saving to me. It's a shame as on first glance it looks to be in pretty good condition.

I've weighed it not very scientifically using the bathroom digital scales and weighing myself whilst holding the bike up and then subtracting my own weight. The bike weighs 10.4 kilos. The frame is a 21.5" and these Marin frames aren't the lightest but they're extremely durable - there's plenty...

Here's my mid 1990s Marin Muirwoods on skinny tyres for commuting / urban riding. It's super fast and a lot of fun to ride.

Hello all Please can I ask what bottom brackets people recommend these days? I need a 68X118 square taper BB and my favoured BB is the Shimano UN55. Unfortunately I can't find any suppliers with the 68X118 size in stock. I'll be happy to read any advice about a BB that's equivalent or better...

My 1994 Marin Muirwoods has a 27.2mm seatpost. (I believe the 1994 Muirwoods and Palisades Trail are identical frames). Richard

Re: Thanks for all the suggestions and advice given. I've ordered the Shimano bolts on eBay that Once a Hero kindly linked to. Hopefully I won't get clobbered with import duty and a handling fee when they arrive in the UK from the US. Richard

Hello All I'm sure most people know that the securing bolts for Shimano XTR V brakes (M951 etc.) are almost impossible to find if you don't already have them. You can't use regular 6mm Allen bolts as the heads of these bolts are too big to give clearance to the cam and rod mechanism on the V...

Thanks everyone for the advice. I've ordered the Shimano CS-HG41 7 speed cassette and a KMC Z7 chain from Tredz. Richard

Hello all I have a 1990s Marin Muirwoods and I need a new 7 speed cassette, (I want to stick with 7 speed as I like the Shimano shifter I have and I want to keep the bike fairly original). My question is would the Shimano CS-HG41 7 Speed Acera Cassette from Tredz be a good choice for a...

Please can forum members who have Exotic UD carbon rigid forks help me out with a question: I've got some Exotic rigid carbon forks on one of my bikes and they've been great. I'm going to buy another Exotic rigid carbon fork for another bike and I'm thinking about buying the forks with the UD...

PM sent about the red segmented forks. Thanks, Richard

Thank you for the recommendations, I've ordered the Deda.

Hello All I'm looking to buy a top quality quill stem adapter so I can use a modern stem and handlebar combo on my Marin. Please can you give me recommendations for a good quality 25.4mm / 1 inch diameter aluminium quill stem adapter to buy? I'm wary of buying some made in China junk via eBay...
