    For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail SOLD

    Re: For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail Actualy, it's obvious isn't it... it's the same solution that I always use. A bit of old inner tube and some cable ties.

    For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail SOLD

    Re: For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail Hi Hamster, Your bike looks great. Have you ever put front panniers on? I'm thinking of doing so, just to even out the weight a bit. I think a loaded back end with nothing on the front could cause some serious issues on dirt roads. Obviously the front fork...

    Re: For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail That's good to hear! Have you done anything to upgrade it? I was going to have some bomber wheels built and that's about it.

    90's STEEL MTB for UNSUPPORTED W. AFRICA TOUR

    Re: Re: That's very generous Marc! Thanks. I live in Sheffieldl so I can swing by. Are you in a rush to get rid of it? Ideally I might pick it up on a nice day (if we'll have any more) when I can tag on a climb in the Dales. Do you want to PM me with you address and the like?

    90's STEEL MTB for UNSUPPORTED W. AFRICA TOUR

    Now then, is this still going? If so, any chance you'd knock a little more off if I took it minus the wheels as well... I've decided I really need to build some custom wheels to take the load and the gravel roads.

    For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail SOLD

    Re: For Sale: Marin Palisades Trail Hi. Where in Sheffield do you live? I might be interested, but in this as the base for a tourer. Maybe we could negotiate a price that left you with the drivetrain to stick on another bike. Also, do you know which kind of steel this is made from?

    Bomber frame for African Expedition

    I'm looking for a sound steel frame in around 18 inch for 26inch wheels with forks and headset (and anything else that might be left on) to build up in a tourer to take across West Africa. So it will need to have braze-ons at the rear to take a rack. I posted about this before looking for a...

    What's the least you've paid for the longest ride?

    In January I'm heading to West Africa in order to cycle the 4000km or so between Dakar and Lagos. I'm currently looking for the bike to take me, and my very limited budget has led me to the mid-90's MTBs. But, of course, I've been doing the bike porn rounds as well. I've been ogling the Surly...

    90's STEEL MTB for UNSUPPORTED W. AFRICA TOUR

    That's very tempting! I'm not going to say yes right now because you're quite a way off from Sheffield. I'm going to have a word with a local bikeshop first and see what I might turn up locally in the near future. There's a good chance I'll be back in touch for one of those bikes, though.
