    Klein info

    Hi, I'm considering swapping my GT Tempest (complete bike) for a 96/97 Klein Attitude comp (frame only) - which I'd build up (suspension forks out front). I'm not familiar with Kleins so would really appreciate some info/advice on them if possible i.e. any gotchas/special/proprietary parts...

    Sold GT Tempest

    Tinker got a bike elsewhere, so the GT is still here. I don't want to have to leave it outside, so no reasonable offer refused...

    Anyone fancy a swap? Ssuspension friendly ready frame? Electro-acoustic guitar? Guitar pedals? WHY?

    Fitting suspension fork to Kona Kilauea

    Hi, A real school-boy question (deserving of being flamed!) - but here goes... I'd like to put some suspension forks on my 92 Kilauea - hopefully keeping a similar geometry (or even better improving it!) - and would really appreciate advice on which parts I'd need to replace - and even...

    Sold GT Tempest

    That's always the tricky bit isn't it :) I'd like a swap for something of same quality - but smaller frame. But if I had to put a value on it... I think £100 would be reasonable

    Sold GT Tempest

    Hi, I've been umming and ahhing over what to do with this - but have finally made the decision (well the missus did actually!) that I don't need another "spare" bike :oops: It's a mid 90's GT Tempest and barring a few scratches (and slightly rusty seatpost bolt) it is in really...

    It actually measures 22.5" c-c (top tube) and 18.5" c-c seat-tube.

    GT Tempest

    Yeah, it's running pretty well. The front mech needs a slight tweak, but otherwise the indexing works across all the gears. It does feel quite nimble, but at the same time also too big (even if it is an 18"). I guess I'm used to the frame/geometry of the Kona :?: Anybody want a swap?

    GT Tempest

    As promised, here's a couple of pics of the "new" GT :D - I swear this bike has never seen a trail in it's life!! :lol: It has a bigger frame than my Kilauea (which is an 18") - and probably is a smidge too big for me... so I'm re-considering what to do with it... Maybe swap for a...

    GT Tempest

    OMG! I am totally stoked. I turned up expecting to find a tatty frame with bent rims, no bars etc etc... but much to my surprise I now find myself the owner of a VERY complete and VERY original red/yellow Tempest :shock: I quickly put the bike in the boot and drove home. When home a few...

    GT Tempest

    Hi, I'm relatively new to this site - and have lurked long enough - therefore thought it about time to post properly :) I'm picking up an old GT Tempest later (95 model I think) today and would like to rebuild it as a weekend hack/woods ride. I don't really know what condition the bike...

    1995 Kona Kilauea 18" - £1000 BIN

    Crikey! I'd best put my old bike up for sale then... It's a purple 91/92 Kilauea. Must be worth at least 2k ;)
