Marked size 43 but I‘m a UK 8 and they fitted me. Could do with some polish on the soles but have left them as the are so you can see their condition which I would say is good. I didn‘t do many miles in them. Leather is still soft but would also benefit from some dressing plates are good and...

Re: Thanks for the transfer info. Yes there is a front cable router looks fairly normal to be but my road bike is 76 vintage so maybe just what I'm used to. I'll be putting up some of the old components up on the for sale board later, might be something of use to someone

Re: Thanks, the colour is sour apple, powder coat with a clear coat on top. I haven't decided wether to add after market Orange decals or not. Thanks for the frame info too, it has the bridge between the chain stays which I believe was gone by 93/94. Is that a frame no at the bottom of your...

Re: Thanks for the tips Hamster, I have not seen Magura brakes before & will need to do some more research on them. Those on one bars are different and the U.K. Site has them on offer at £15, got to be worth at try at that price, Same site also has some other sensibly priced stuff too. Frame...

I don't think the forks are original - they had a Tange sticker on each blade. The bike was black but the paint was v poor after 20 + years. I found the refinisher on eBay, those are his pics prior to despatch, hope to get it back this week. All being well I'll post his details if anyone is...

Re: Useful info about v levers I see some have a hi/lomsetting so perhaps that alters the amount of cable travel? I believe the bike is early '90's but will be guided by your views

Thanks Gold Trader that's a great idea.

My wife suffers from arthritis in her hands and finds lever shifters painful to use. Prior to its onset, she enjoyed riding our Orange Prestige. We are almost the same height so that made sharing a bike easy but now need a second bike so that we can go out as a family on road/ light X country...

Nice ! The paint looks original - mine doesn't !

Re: more added 20/01/14 Hi, Are the brake levers still available ? Are they correct for canti.'s ? cheers

Marc, That's really helpful, and deore 510 hubs are a good price. I,ll see if I can get the 9 going as this is not a retro build as such rather an update. I looked at buying her anew bike but was not impressed with them in my price range. I have a Roberts road bike that I don't ride and have...

Gents , You both advocate buying a donor hub they certainly work out cheaper than spares. I need to go 9 speed to match some Sram X0 twist shifts as SWMBO has arthritic hands & can't use thumb operated ones. So if I use the donor hubs cones, & freehub the seal issue is avoided because the...

Carlos, Thanks for the quick reply. Yes its an MTB hub images attached caliper shows o.d. of cone @ 17mm

I have looked but I can't see any part no's on it and the print on silver sticker in the middle of it has worn off. I need to rebuild the hub to take a 9 speed ( with an 11 tooth). Its currently fitted with a 7 speed cassette and the bike is a 1989 Clockwork & I think the hub is original. I'm...

Re: Classic Clockwork Orange Cr-Mo complete Deore XT mavic, Hi, Is the bike still up for sale? cheers Tony

what does the 'band' look like ? ie.e is it like a caf fan belt or is it much thinner ? is it round in cross section or flat ? If you know the exact cross section and dimensions and length there are industrial suppliers who might be able to help; http://www.wyko.co.uk/belts/
