Another full pro and an orange metalic Pro racer. But this is for later , don't have any time now I also have to restore some Giants . But I am in short of time at the moment as I am training most of the time . Mountainbike marathons need an lot of preparations . Afther every race my good...

Hi melvin i think you know all about this frame ... Bought it at e-bay few years ago , guy came all the way from Friesland to bring it , he had bought it like a year earlier as new old stock , and used it a season with the 8 sp setup , thats why the modern STI adjusters are on the bike. I...

I've been looking for these brake pads long time now . They'r just not available anymore. Now i found out that cutting an cadridge brake pad from an road bike is easy , the size is almoste the same. Do NOT use ATB cadridge pads , they are more bend , caused by the smaller wheel size. i...

Maybe handy to know , it's not difficult to make the it yourself . Check the picture. Regards!

You can make the old one longer 8) I have done that with a lot of steering tubes.

Verry neat! I think i will buy some more cadex frames and build me one with disk brakes! :D

Noboddy interested? Now that i have bought enough Mag21,s to play with , I am going to rebuild the Paris Roubaix fork again! :mrgreen:

Thank you! The stickers are explained here on my site http://mountainbikie.yolasite.com/stickers-cadex-en-mag21.php , But it's in Dutch... Thats why I have translated it :(it was translated in Babelfish, some parts will read quite stupid... :mrgreen: ) Cheers! My method to copy...

As i suspected , i thought the riser and the bar-ends would be like cursing in the church. :twisted: and I don't mind because I am an atheist :mrgreen: And its al about comfort for me, apart from winning the retro world series, it's suposed to be cruising... placards=stickers

Thanks ! But.. Onza?? You got to be kidding , I bought them from jimmenzies on Ebay including shipment from the UK to the Netherlands for : £5.00 !! Removed a part of the bar-ends anyway , as I always did this in the '90's.

Hope you like it . Photo's can be better , it's the winter light that is much to blue for all the blue parts :wink: but i can't wait untill spring... The Rock shox Mag 21 is all new inside , placards made by myself. I will give an walk through for the manufacturing of the placards next time...

The Cadex nr. one is ready , have a look , I placed more photo's under the readers MTB tread. Don't realy like the quality of the pictures , must be the winter weather . :roll:

Crazy! :shock: Just did a conversion! It went suprisingly smooth and easy.. Check http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?p=587947#587947

Surprise surprise , I disassembled the Paris Roubaix today and found: The top out sleeve has the 19mm lenght , wich is a long travel sleeve..?? :shock: (standard was 30.6mm on the Mag) The rest is the same as the Mag 21 which I disassembled previously. Except the upper fork tubes , which...

Stupid I did not check this at once........before disassembling the second one, i checked the play on the fork leg :( It's quite substantional... Now do I might be wrong but when look very closely it seems the play is between the leg and the longer nylon bushing? replacing this bushing will...

I am going to remove the fork from the Koga and transform it into a mag suitable for of road. the new parts for Mag21 are so scarse and expensive its stupid to sell this fork. All parts can be used with some modification.

Back again. I removed the paint from one of the legs and treated it with alodine... Anyone knows if alodine works on magnesium? Anyway , it shines like polished aluminium when rubed , now is it insane if I treat the polished and bare legs with alodine and then coat it with clearcoat (two...
