    Craigslist Buy at $100 USD

    Nice buy. Ebay has a bunch of auctions offering NOS bushing and seals for that series of frames as well as the crosslink fork right now if you need them. I think the x57 have more travel than the x56. And I think the 955 and most of the x56 (excluding 1996 956LE ) are the only model(year)...

    Removing rattle can paint

    Try Nail polish remover. My girlfriends car had "poop" spraypainted on it. Nail polish remover did the trick without harming the finish.

    GT STS-5- info pls

    Looks like elastomers from proflex. The interchangable black disc in the middle should be used to control "preload". Callum over at rapid decent scotland offers aftermarket elastomers for a whole range of proflex bikes and at different springweights. Perhaps he can help you out. He just...

    ID help on these Air Cartridges..

    I think what might help is if you are able to get your hands on dial calipers. and give us the diameter of the fattest part of the tubing. Also the amount of threading will help.

    Shocks worth keeping? (now about Halson Inversions/PDS)

    Woot. I have something to contribute here, finally. I owned the first pair of shocks, they are still on my old Ironhorse back at my parents place. I loled when I saw rock shock stickers on it. It probably symbolizes the thoughts of each and every person who bought one because they wanted...

    Rock Shox Indy Questions.

    Did some measurements. seems that the max amount of travel on my indy sl is about 5mm less than stated amount of travel that indy c, xc, and sl have. Perhaps this is do the the friction dampner taking up room inside the shock.

    Rock Shox Indy Questions.

    I just bought a pair of NOS Indy SL off ebay after all the years of wanting a pair during my early teens. Feels great to be able to afford the stuff I couldn't as a kid. Have a few question for you guys familiar with this stuff. What is the difference between the 1998 and pre-98 model? I...

    Shipping cost from UK to Canada

    not sure if this helps, but if it is anything like shipping from the US, avoid UPS like the plague. They charge crazy brokerage fees to the receiver by "helping" them ensure to pay full duty.

    Hello. First post here. Identify this seat?

    Thanks for the help guys. No idea that bike is from Finland, its name sounds more like some kind of latin american street dish to me. The saddle is kind of neat, it's got these circular elastomer discs that are quite large in area, but not very thick at the back. It's also got a depression...
