i'll pm gonzalez today, if he doesn't want it it's yours.

dug it out- hg70 7 speed 13-26 still sealed in bag. 8 quid posted? paypal ok, i'm in west yorks if you happen to be anywhere close? let me know if you fancy it.

i might have a brand-spanker at home, let me have a look this evening.

soz, did try the search but it didn't seem very user-friendly (couldn't work out how to just search thread titles - someone will point it out in all its glaring glory now) i'm going to put off heating till a last ditch attempt because the paint is the zoncalon stuff and I want to keep it...

On my Marin Palisades 91, stuck fast My initial idea would be to; turn bike upside down. spray plus gas into the seat tube through the bottle cage holes. leave over night. then.. drill a hole through the post. stick some sort of lever through said hole. lever. but, i have...

Hello all. I've been registered for two years (asked some questions about my road bike) just got my first EVER mountain bike. Marin Palisades Trail. looking to make some subtle tweaks and then ride it regularly. My other bikes are; Trek 470 road bike (mid 90's steel) Hand Built...

Cheers all for the replies. just picked it up. one of my very very very rare ebay finds that comes up trumps. mispelled auction, nearby collection, didn't hit reserve price but got it on second chance. £20.00 in goodish nick, paint all fine (chainstay protector etc.) some of the...

Not one of the proper classics but should do for a beater. Not even sure of the size yet. Anyone know the year or links to catalogues etc. Cheers.

not mine by the way, i'd be all over it like a rash if i had the money http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/STUNNING-RETRO-SP ... 286.c0.m14

brilliant, thanks a lot. that looks like it'll be just the job

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a 28 hole rear hub to fit a shimano 7 speed cassette? preferably silver, ideally dura-ace?? Not sure of the spacing of my rear dropouts but it's a 90's trek so probably fairly standard i hope. any advice much appreciated

I currently ride a 'retro' road bike but i'm in the market for a MTB so I can ride with a few friends. They mainly ride modern hard tails with long-travel forks (on-one inbred, cotic soul etc.) I'm on a budget and have been recommended a DMR trailstar LT which has similar geometry etc.. My...

noted. if calling it 'campy' can offend people, perhaps i'd better think twice before teaming it with shimano grip shifters and spraying the rear-mech pink. thanks for the info, nearly stuck the lot on ebay, now i'm stuck looking for bits to match.

Just wondered what type of standard/price level the nuovo record stuff would have been in it's day. i've got a seven speed rear mech, double front mech, crankset and friction shifters.. look like their from around late eighties/early nineties. nice looking stuff, i'm hoping to stick it on...

Hello all. just taken delivery of two milremo plastic bottles (bidons) they have a slot down the back, i suppose for fitting to frame without cage. anyone know what type of fitting i'd need? does it just rely on one (or two) bolts in the bottle cage mount or is there a specific type of...

how about a retro bike calender, "cyclepassion" style, old bikes and not-so-old women?

Thanks for advice.. just read my post and realised how soft I sound, I guess i'll just have to grow some proper legs.

I'm currently riding a mid-nineties trek running shimano RSX 7spd double. It's a lovely bike on the flat but i'm too soft to manage steep hills. I was hoping to put an even smaller inner chainwheel on the front (currently 36t) After spending hours on sheldonbrown it looks like this should...
