Re: Thanks for the info. good to know it handles well on the flat bar, gives me a fallback if the flared drops dont work out. I have previously used the KS, on another bike, and was pretty good. The Coast stems not as cheap, though still 'budget'-ish, but the ext connector is on the lower...

Re: Hi, Im just building up my new Camino Al frame, and was initially going to go flatbar, and move stuff over from another bike, but even though Sonder sell a flat-bar variant whole bike, it apparently has exactly the same frame geometry as the drop-bar version, so as most advice seems to...

Hi, looking for a set of steel forks for a 531 23" framed racer, needs to be a lugged but sleek design, late 80's type maybe? - steerer neeeds to be 1" x 24 tpi english thread, 195 - 210mm long , 26.4 headset , 531 if possible, or similar quality - not looking for anything immaculate or too...

Re: hi, if your interested, have a late 2013 frame only, med, in orange, tapered headtube, superb condition, as its still covered in helitape, always garaged, and stripped down indoors for last 6 months, a really shiny classic orange soul - despite being a 26-er, im only really letting it go...

Re: Thanks for replies - I liked the look of the A9, and it matched the stack height nicely - and both cost just over £20, whereas frenc threaded seem to be a lot more, where available. unfortunately, i have no spare fork, however, the 24tpi thread of a bottom bracket cup matches the steerer...

I'm attempting to put a new headset on my 1988 falcon triathlon fork with 25.4mm threaded ISO steerer, and have just brought, and tried to fit, my second stronglight a9 headset, but both are just too tight to get more than 1.5-2 turns onto the thread. My 4 year old VP headset, another unused...

Most newer rear shocks seem to have 12.7mm bushes, top and bottom. I've recently done a similar swapout on my Wolf ridge, and as the original shockworks unit had 12mm DP bushes, the alloy 'top hat' spacers that fitted over the steel pivot were therefore too loose within the bushes. You can...

Hi, I'll take the XT front derailleur please - Have sent PM, Thanks!

1050 levers now sourced - Thanks! Levers now kindly supplied by Nammonk, so search is ended, thanks for all replies,I probably couldnt afford the Nos levers Stedlocks offered, but thanks anyway - i couldnt afford a complete 105 set back in '88 either, so am only now managing to get the...

Thanks Laurence, but it looks as though Nick has now come up with a pair of 1050's for me, so i'll be going with those now. Cheers, Martin

Hi, I'm after a set of the 1050 sprung levers with the non-aero top cable entry hoods. Would prefer levers to be unscratched/v.good, hoods not quite as important. Not sure if they come other than with black hoods, but dont mind if in white. Many thanks.
