    show us your elevated c/s bikes

    My project with $25 NZD 29er forks mocked up. Rat rod style at the moment and will most likely stay that way. Will try the 69er style for a while if the handling is wack the 26 inch forks will go back on. I do need to source a front wheel though so that will make it more expensive. Any...

    Chain Lube...

    My only advice with a new chain is not to apply anything and leave it with whatever they put on it from the factory for as long as possible.

    did it come with the team extreme stem and bar? I always found having those set up on my one really comfortable. Digging the e stays still. 8)

    Newbie assistance, can any one identify this frame for me?

    For the right price even if it was a Milazo its worth it for the parts. Though I think for a while there was some ok stuff coming out with that name. The milazo I previously saw on trade me had pretty average parts

    Newbie assistance, can any one identify this frame for me?

    I've seen a milazo in this style before. but do not think they'd have a Manitou fork. Pretty sure the one for sale before was full rigid. Are the components good stuff?

    1991 Revolution

    ok mine does not seem to be a revolution. No offset with a normal wheel in that I can see. I also spotted that your chain stay splits after the seat tube whereas mine splits and is welded before. Serial is on one of the stays. Once I get a new phone or find my camera battery charger I will...

    1991 Revolution

    I've just picked up an estay from the local tip, no stickers at all and in primer though. Seems to be pretty similar to yours with a mono stay and top run cables. The bottle cage bolts are in a different place. Does the single tube of the mono stay go past where it splits? (Does this make...

    Early Muddyfox Lovers Anonynmous

    There is a tempting '85 seeker on the local version of flea bay here. Tempted to buy it but I kind of know I would probably singlespeed it which would be a shame... or would it. I love those high suntour thumbies they came with mind. I was looking for a Muddy Fox when I was living in...

    Vitus 787 Chainset

    9 kg should be possible with those frames, mine is currently stripped in my shed. The frame only is very light without the bottom bracket in. Just frame, forks and my record headset. Hmm perhaps I should weigh it before I build it back up... Good luck with the weight, what wheels are you...
