Re: Hi there I've got a NOS stem in 1 1/4" with 140 mm length. I do have a matching handlebar although that is not NOS. PM me if interested K

Re: If head set is 1 1/8" I will be more than happy to take it off your hands :D PM on its way K.

Re: Lovely and more silent in presentation than the more flashy paint schemes. Currently working on a 1991 Yo in Kandy Wild Cherry, which I absolutely adore. Regarding "fat, juicy tires" I am all in on that too, but seems impossible to stumble up some 2,50 skinwalls. Even 2,35 is a challenge...

Re: Wow - and I have one too :D Mine is a late 1992 bought by a German gentleman, who rode for some 300 km, hang it on the wall and only took it down, when upgrading parts. Being very systematic (and German) he boxed all original parts, that he took off, so it is very easy to build back...

Re: I will take the following if no one else beat me to the finish line: 09] XTR M900 Front mech, 31.8mm, vgc - 40€ PM incoming K.

Re: Great bike find :D I too have a weak spot for these pre 90's Raleigh "mtb's". I have a mint set of those grips you are after plus an uncut handlebar from a 1989 Raleigh Thunder Road. Bar is 60 cm wide when grips are in place, so assume bar is 59 cm without. Bar could do with a respray...

Re: Hello all I must say, that I am very pleased with the way communication, trading and honesty is being handled by mfhxgram Very fair in all aspects to say the least and absolutely trustworthy. Items were correctly described, packaging carefully carried out and communication honest and a...

Re: Evening gents Being somewhat older than average on here, I have had the pleasure of looking at and buying stuff, that now fetches high prices, because they are NOS. What I can tell you is, that back when the parts were new and introduced to the marked, I didn't hesitate for one second to...

Re: Awesome :D Collecting bits for a project not that far away from this theme, although Japanese are allowed it's contribution is minimal. K.

Such a great story with actually two main characters: The Zaskar and yourself Great build up and even if it didn't end up as period correct, it ticks all your right spots. That is so evident from reading a thread, that goes way beyond the build itself, and follows you over the years using it...

Re: Well then..... finally got the frame up from the basement and made some measurements on the Zaskar frame (which has 73 mm bottom bracket shell). All measurements below are based on the WI Phantom bottom bracket.: Right crank arm clearance: 44,5 mm Left crank arm clearance: 42,5 mm Crank...

Re: Really not that proud to join the line for exotic parts from Regan; wish he would make use of them himself :cry: Since we are past the point of no return, I will be more than proud to acquire the carbon handlebars for my Al-Mega XTR :oops: Dibs on these and getting in line awaiting...

Re: That came out of the blue as a total surprise Regan :shock: :shock: I have been following your excitement and joy over finally acquiring a Ti-Mega and all your thoughts and thinking on how to use the NOS Al-Mega XTR as donor. Then followed by the over-the-top rare find of the Al carbon...

Re: Lush :D We are all too late, as it was announced sold 17 hours ago. Frame will travel to Norway....... again one seriously desirable frame/bike heading for the north. Good luck with the frame; must be something really special to have 8) K.

Re: That Kona went faster than fast :shock: One night you're out and this gets up for sale and is sold before you wake up..... Well - I think it is too small anyway. Maybe I should restart looking for a Hei Hei again :idea: Obviously a choice for the connoisseur and an extremely balanced...

Re: Feedback on my approach to White Industries :D ......... although........ .....we are not all set but getting closer (maybe) :? Anyways, cudos and super nice of them to answer a request on items +20 years old. The reply I got: We welcome your inquiry and I wish I had a specific...

Re: Re: ➡️ Right so I agree, that we need a firm confirmation on the spindle length for the US version. Both the US and Japanese versions were available to customers in the same period. Can be verified from catalog in Archive section. Seems odd that the difference in design between the...

Re: Thanks guys; really appreciated :D So we can sum things up like this: White Industries C Series made in US takes 122,5-127 mm spindle White Industries M Series made in Japan by Sugino takes 107-113 mm spindle. Correct? K.

Re: Wow- how could this info slip my attention :shock: Can't remember ever seeing a notification email for this last input. I assume, that this length is for the US made version, aka C Series. Just out of curiosity was the length for the M series (made by Sugino in Japan) the same. Btw I...

Re: Now sorted :!: Big thanks to RickTheUncivil :D K.
