    90's Raleigh Amazon

    Re: Tell ya what, considering you've got a budget of zero I think you've done really well there to put that together. Have you done all the mechanical work yourself?

    90's Raleigh Amazon

    I had an Amazon when I was at school. I have to say, I thought paint job was actually really nice! It's defo not below any standard. Ok, the Amazon was a budget bike and was hardly a dyna tec or an M Trax. But that being said it was a cromoly frame and not a cheap Hi Tensile. They were well...

    Is this over priced?

    Ah thanks mate but I've seen the photos and I'd be after something that's mint as in the decals are all in one piece and that. Pushing the boat out for a bike that's over twenty years old but I'm sure one must exist somewhere. Solid and sturdy indeed though, bit like having a classic car only...

    Is this over priced?

    I'd quite like an apex actually lol. Provided the paint and decals were all in a really nice condition that is. Also providing it's not a huge frame size! Why is it so many old mountain bikes you see on ebay have huuuuuge frame sizes? Even Peter Crouch would struggle to get on half of them...

    Is this over priced?

    I'm glad you're mainly of the opinion it's too dear because that's what I thought. I offered him sixty which I thought was a very generous offer... But I think he took the huff and was a bit arsey over it. His reply being if I want a bike for £60, go to Argos! lol! Ah the joys of eBay eh?

    Is this over priced?

    No it's not that one mate. I mean it's that type of bike, but the condition is like new. The listing has already ended on eBay for it but the buyer never paid the seller so it's on dispute whilst he claims his fees back. But 95 pounds for an Amazon when the one you linked is just £20 and with...

    Is this over priced?

    Guys I've been chatting to a bloke on eBay who's selling a Raleigh Amazon. Now fair enough it looks mint, like brand new! Can't argue with it's condition. But he wants £95 for it and I think that's too expensive. After all, it's not a dyna tec or m trax or anything like that. Just an Amazon...

    Bike shops in NW that you would trust with your retro ride?

    Depending on where in Cheshire you are theres a place in Ellesmere Port called Cheshire oaks cycles that are a great bunch. I've had lots of work done to my two bikes there.

    Well just finished restoring an old Scott bike I bought. The SRAM grip shifters were shot on it so I replaced them with a pair of Microshift ones bought brand new off eBay for less than a tenner! These are them here. http://bit.ly/SkzO0q . Tell you what for the money they are cracking value...

    Help!!! After advice with hubs rebuilds.

    So made up!! Got a new axle for it and also on close inspection one of the cones looked ropey so I changed that too and now it's as smooth as can be! No play either! Was worried I was doing to have to replace the wheel because this bike I'm restoring is eventually going to be a present for...
