Re: That Ms Isle looks great, really clean build! 8) My Slackline

It's an old Hope 4 pot with 3 as the only marking so I think it's either an M4 or E4. Cheers, I'll drop them a message.

Re: Some awesome bikes in here! 8) Just finished building up my first single speed: The cranks and pedals aren't working for me either, although RaceFace powder coat seems really tough to remove. I'd like some Halo Twin Rail tyres with the skin walls too. Otherwise it makes a great fun...

As per title really. Let me know what you have. Many thanks, Dan

Campy mechs sent quickly and in lovely condition as described. Many thanks! 8)

What a machine! 8) Any changes planned?

Gorgeous frame and an awesome selection of components! I'm very jealous.

Bump.

I ought this new (2005 IIRC) and will probably regret selling it, but it's just clutter at the moment. It's a great frame, seems to build up feather light without even trying, very quick and responsive. Beautifully made and finished. 19" (will get some proper measurements soon) Satin Pewter...

Re: IBIS Tranny with U.S.E. S.U.B. - update Incredible looking bike! Hope it's a worthy car.

Cheers Loxy! Mr Pedigree, it is (or perhapsI should say was) a proper team, I have original docs from Marin for it and it retains the Vanilla TC which I think was just an OEM RC and not supplied with the frames. I think there's pictures of it somewhere on here before it was stripped by the guy...

Re: 2001 Mountain Cycle San Andreas 10th anniversary edition I love a San Andreas! I reckon 1x10 modern gearing would work nicely.

Jesus! Hope you recover soon and get an awesome replacement. What happened?

Cheers! Really starting to gel with it, the 10 speed Zee stuff is excellent and crazy quiet. Managed to wreck my rear tube today without a replacement, so a tubeless conversion is on the cards. New project soon (eBay is my weakness).

I love coloured tyres! Some great examples in this thread too. I have fond memories of a truly rad machine that belonged to a firend, The Stycle. 8)

Re: '98 Marin Team DH F.R.S It's finally finished. Had a quick spin today and as my first proper full-susser it was quite different from my 24lb Rockhopper. Slow and energy sapping uphill, but a lotof fun and pretty quick on the way down. I need a stiffer spring on the rear though, but no...

Sorted with a pricey eBay find. Being a Whyte part it should increase my radness levels though. 8)

Wow! That's gorgeous. I need to work harder.

Went to replace the bushes on my 98 Marin Team DH and managed to snap one of the bolts for the front mount in the 8mm diameter internally threaded cylinder which fits inside the bush. Any ideas where I can get a replacement? Pretty gutted since the bike is otherwise finished. Thanks, Dan

The swing-arm is most likely a replacement, either due to cracking or because it has an IS disc mount. Where did you get your shock bushes from? I'm thinking mine would be better off being replaced.
