    The Retro Clothing Thread - Tasteless threads alert

    While digging through the garage today I found these beauties; Brand new, never worn. Not surprising really... :shock: Neoprene lined, warm and waterproof, I must have picked them up in a summer sale just before starting to work nights. :roll: So c'mon, post up your taste phails...

    I'd not spotted that, I don't think it's too short, must be the angle... :?

    Hope Disc Brake Help

    I need some help identifying my Hope brakes... :oops: I think they need a service (not done since, well, forever) and need to get some seals, pads and o-rings.

    Club Roost VCV

    I thought I ought to split my two rides, so here's a bunch of pics of the Roost. Bought NOS as a frame set, plus BB and seatpost in '97/98 (can't remember exactly :oops: ) and built up with parts from my ProFlex 856 mutant. Early Hope discs in Mavic 121 rims, expertly built by John Atkins...

    Anything and everything needed - building a bike for my son

    To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what I need until I get a frame, although I will need stuff like that eventually. I really want to get frame and forks suited first.

    Anything and everything needed - building a bike for my son

    Thanks, but 15" is too big. He's tried a 13" Trek 3700 and it was only just small enough.

    Anything and everything needed - building a bike for my son

    After insisting he wanted a new BMX for his birthday my lad has been bitten by the MTBing bug after a couple of trips to the Forest of Dean. :roll: As I just blew over 200 quid on said BMX money is tight but I'd like to build him a half decent spec bike rather than buy a budget piece of...

    24in Wheels and V-Brakes

    My son wants to get into MTBs after years on BMXs and I'd like to sort him out with a decent bike that will last for a while. He's tried a 13" Trek 3700 and it's borderline. 24" wheels would help with his confidence but I'm wondering how/if V-Brakes will work/have enough adjustment? On my...

    '96 GT Zaskar LE

    My current rides; The saddle was awol when I took the pics in '06, now found. It's badly in need of a decent shock, any offers greatfully received... :P All the extraneous crap has been binned, much better. 8) I've owned both from new, used to hit the Forest of Dean or Cleeve Hill...

    I have them on my XT cranks, but they're so old I can't remember what make they are. :oops:
