Those silver ones, are they cup-and-ball or sealed bearings? I wouldn't mind finding one of the easily disassembled rear hubs (9000-series?) with sealed bearings. The blue ones I have would be a dream to own if I didn't have the specter of the low quality freehub body hanging over my shoulders...

I bought those pewter wheels for $85 from that buyer...have 'em and don't need 'em. They are cup & ball, not sealed like my the 9000-series Pulstar wheelset I have in blue (Bontrager rims, handbuilt by Wheelsmith). I rebuilt the bearings and relubed the freehub, which seems to engage well...

Thanks for the pic! I know there's nothing wrong with the ball & cone version, it's just that I have the sealed version and was looking to pick up a spare rear hub for the freehub body alone (which seems to be the achilles heel of these hubs, sadly). There is a guy named Tim Thompson who's...

Can you please post a pic? I may be interested if they're the right ones (those with the sealed bearings, not the ball bearings). Thanks in advance! - Doug :-)

Sadly, same here. It was my first full-suspension bike, and it just didn't deliver on what I was looking for from such a bike. Amusingly, that niche is now filled by a modified K2/Proflex 4000 and maybe more appropriately by an '03 Intense Tracer. I'm a big ProFlex fan, though...it's tough to...

Not interested in the wheels, but that's a nice Manitou FS! I had one a while back, eBayed it and had to ship it from the US to an enthusiast in Germany. Loved all that CNC-machined goodness :-P - Doug

Hello all, I'm looking for an Araya RM-395 Team XC rim in very good to excellent condition to match another that I already have. Anyone out there have one? I'm in the US, but am willing to pay the needed shipping. Many thanks in advance! - Doug :-)

Really nice, and I happen to be looking for a 957 frame and fork, but I want it to be the original polished aluminum. Plus, I'm in the states, and having mailed a Manitou FS bike to Germany once before I know that shipping would be prohibitively expensive and difficult. Good luck with the...

Ah, thanks! Was just hoping to round out the set, but I guess I don't have to :-) - Doug

Hello all, I recently picked up a near-new Proflex 856 locally for $75, and the previous owner had instaled Pulstar-hubbed, Wheelsmith-built wheels on it. The front Pulstar hub is the suspension type with the thick, through-axle-like QR. However, the rear was just running some old steel...

Hello all, I'm looking for a decent Proflex 957 frame (with carbon rear swingarm, shock optional) and carbon Girvin fork (shock also optional). Must be the original polished finish, though it's fine if some restoration is needed. No dents or carbon issues. I also have a bunch of Proflex...
