    Boxxer WC 2010 on 2011 SC Nomad

    Its quite a long story.... Been waiting for several months for a SC Bullit without luck. Already bought many parts to fit it including some 2010 world cups. I get cheesed off with the LBS and they offer a good deal on a SC Nomad. I search around the net and find some people have fitted...

    ****PACE RC35 Help****

    I recently bought some RC35's in good condition from the bay... They have no rebound, hence the elastomers are shot (having taken a look at other RB threads on the subject) I undid the allen bolt at the base of each stanchion and took them out. They have a small black elastomer on them...

    What colour shall I have my superlight powdercoated?

    Everything is white these days - it started with the ipod, now the whole world is doing white. Black would be kinda cool with the red detailing 8) Lime Green would be totally different and would also look cool with the red parts imho. green it is then?

    Retrobike Trends for 2011

    this might sound crazy, but: As we're entering a new decade, retro might become "newer" Late 90's/early 00's could become the "new retro"? I'm still stuck in the early to mid 90's, but its just a thought.....we'll see what happens in 2011! :?

    ****1992 Klein Rascal - cable help required****

    I looked at the klein catalogue from 1992 (on RB archive). Seems that there is a small amount of the inner nylon tube sticking out on the attitude and adroit pics. The cable is then bare until it is routed under the curved router under the BB. Thanks to all! I don't have the chain device...

    Cheers for the positive's on the "real Klein" issue! Should be fun to build and ride.... BTW - forks will be pace RC 35's and the goupset will be essentially m739 XT plus some other bits.

    ****1992 Klein Rascal - cable help required****

    thanks. Slightly difficult to visualise - can you (or someone else) post a pic from where the cables exit to the BB. I can then get some visual idea of how to do it.... sorry to be a pain!

    ****1992 Klein Rascal - cable help required****

    Purchased a '92 Klein rascal frame from ebay recently (if you want to know, its the large green frame resprayed by Argos Cycles). Anyway, a Klein is something I lusted after in the early '90's so now I have one. Looks in good nick, but need help with how to route the cables. Yes, its not an...

    Missed : Rock Shox Quadra 21R

    I won 'em :) Not sure what i'm going to do with them but hey, 4 sheets for a pair of forks is pretty good! Await delivery, so not sure of condition yet (and yes, they do need the boots). Maybe they're shot, who knows?!! the description wasn't too in depth.... i've got a scott vantage...

    Trek 930 SS Updated

    hello! I've also recently registered on RB, and am an englishman living in Stockholm. I'm starting my fist build soon..... The trek seems an interesting project, and you should get the bits within budget (difficult to get "retro" stuff in Sweden though?) Can't help with powdercoating...

    1995 Scott Vantage 2.0 - first "retro" purchase!

    These are shimano branded, not the original tioga's or wellgo's. Anyway, now need the time to clean, re-lube/grease and put the thing back together again. Or clean and keep the parts for another build (wheels, cranks, front/rear mech)......decisions decisions.....

    1995 Scott Vantage 2.0 - first "retro" purchase!

    £80 for the full bike (fair price I think) (I think) a 1995 Scott Vantage 2.0. I can't seem to find too much info on the net about this bike/year. Even RB does not seem to have any scott archives (not too sought after...or?) Anyway, the bike is quite mint. It seems to have been ridden on...
