Hello all, I have a gary fisher something. (still going through the catalogues). It has a press in BB, seeing as this is a fairly obsolete standard and the bike cost me very little, i was wondering if it would be possible to thread the bb shell. I have access to all the tools usually...

i too hate square taper bbs. the one on my p7 seized onto the crank and noa mount of anything would shift it. thankfully i had been regularly been wd-40ing the bb and i was able to remove the shell from the frame with the arm still attached. (using c-clip pliers).

alright, who knows what it is?

im now getting a complete set of USE purple controls. should i use them????

thanks. i cheated though, its an eno rear hub. heres the bit donor.

heres mine. its a frankenbike right now. built with bits i had sitting around. but as of wednesday i will be the proud owner of a full purple USE control set. (i also have a box of nice purple stuff and the original stem/post and matching WI black front hub)

any ideas of what model fisher? im not even closely familiar with their bikes.

i think i did too. but who cares:p

its mine!

yeah i noticed the looklikesuntour parts. and was just wondering about the headtube. looked big compared to the rest of the frame. im currently winning, so well see what happens.

as i suspected, thanks! its down here in oz! and pick up only, so counts a fair few people out:D and its a god awful listing.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll ... tsupported well i bought it. who knows what it is???? ill put more pictures up when i pick it up. i got a bit carried away, i wasnt planning on spending that much. ah well. Well, as suspected it is a gary fisher. it has a press in bb and a 1...

WI M15 black front hub. pretty much none in Oz, but the good man Dan at shifter bikes had one. spins like nothing else.

now with gears!

something like this: except not aero road rims:p just that colour scheme. hmmm decisions, decisions.

seeing as you cant run discs id say go the eno. there is no hassle resetting chain tension, you just pull the wheel back, in my opinion easier then adjusting an ebb. also, eno hubs give more adjustment then EBBs do (thats a fact, dont deny it:p) yes it may cost more on its own as you need...

hi everyone! im after a set of orange f7 forks from around 1995. but later will do. they need to have a lonooooong steerer of about 190mm+, i want to run ahead on my p7. i would prefer them in nickel, but thats a minor detail. ooh and 1 inch. or p2s i guess. cheers, ASher.

i think silver would be good too. i was thinking silver rims but balck spokes and hubs, would mean i wont need a new rear hub. if i was going to get gears i would just get a rear mech as id need a tensioner anyway and after not much deliberation ive come to the realisation they suck. and...

very nice, i dont mind the forks, they are different though. its also a good mix of parts. ps, you were wearing a green shirt when you took the photos:p

woooo another aussie. sadly i must disagree, i remember seeing this somewhere and it has stuck with me. "friends dont let friends ride velocity deep Vees" ive pretty much vowed never to put veloocity DV rims on any bike i own ever.
