Another update... I have a work colleague in the office space around the corner from me who also has a daughter with Downs. He gave up on a regular bike but does taker her out on a tandem, which she apparently really likes. This might be an option but my shed is too full as it is! I also...

Not sure whether you're sorted yet or not but.... I have a pretty tidy black Mk 1 DMR Trailstar hanging on my shed wall - I'd say it's had a very easy life by the looks of things. Stickers are getting a bit fragile but these are easily replaced. Bottom bracket threads are perfect and the frame...

As per the subject, I have a year 2000 Marzocchi Z5 stanchion and SSV damper assembly up for grabs. Cost... Nowt but postage. PM me if interested. If there's no interest within a month, assume I've put it in the recycling. Cheers. Mark

Re: Bike arrived today; was really well packaged. It's in good condition considering what it was designed for. It surprised me how long it was. I could almost ride it as a playful xc bike (and I'm average height). Great Retrobiker to deal with. Many thanks. Mark.

Re: Forks arrived today, well packed (took me 10 minutes to get at them) and are in great condition for their age. I'm pretty chuffed. Thanks. Mark

Re: Superstar components do five bolt narrow-wide but I'm not sure about tooth count.

Re: Hi there. Checked my savings and I can afford to pay for the forks whenever is convenient with you... Drop me a pm with payment info. Cheers, Mark

Re: Have tried to pm a reply to you but I think I might have a problem with sending messages. Anyway, I was wondering how near to me, the in-laws or work travel you might be so that I could collect and pay cash... Drop me a message to let me know whether my pm's are getting through. I'm...

Re: Hi, is this still available please? If so could I place dibs please? Cheers, Mark.

Re: Aye, I'll go with that. Cheers, you're a gent. Mark

Re: Hi there I tried replying to your PM for the forks. Either I am inept or my profile is playing up. If you're able to wait until mid March I'm still keen to take the forks off you... Cheers. Mark

Jimmylad, Glad I could oblige. How's the build coming along? I was hoping to get my riding mates to swing by the Forest on our way back down from a road-trip to the Peaks. The draw of Cannock was too great for them though. Would have been cool to have met up though... oh well... Take it easy...

Not been on for yonks but I thought I'd update things again... We took her out in the summer though, and to great effect. She was riding her 16 inch wheeled bike with stabilisers and really enjoyed it. I think she must have done a couple of miles all told (wife and I were knackered) and just...

Re: Hope xc4s, bomber z1s, gt I-drive Yeah. Sure. I fully understand... gets in queue and waits patiently... Cheers, Mark

Re: Hope xc4s, bomber z1s, gt I-drive Hi there, it's been an absolute age since I've been on here and the moment I do I find something that is of interest to me... I've regretted the day I sold my old Z1 CR's to a mate in favour of a lighter modern fork! The weight saving is a bonus but the...

OK, been a while but the Forks went for £150 at Peaty's Bike Bonanza, the pair of Hope Tiglide wheels went to RobH for £70 and Jimmylad has kindly offered to take the frame off me for £100... thankyouverymuch.

Re: Not sure whether you're sorted or not, but I have some Hope Ti hubs in silver shod with grey rims (look like Mavic but de-stickered so I can't tell). Front is QR. Both have hope 5 bolt discs fitted - 180mm both ends from memory. The good. They look great, are light and most importantly are...

Re: DHO back up. Buyer pulled out before I popped the frame into the car to ferry it back up North. Oh, well I guess that sets a new price of £100 plus postage/courier for the wee beastie then... Oh, and I also edited the info on the brakes - found it was a front in working order, rather than...

DHO frame inc. shock sold for £100.

Re: I realise that this is quite an old thread now, but I thought I'd give an update anyway... She's still not riding a bike as such, but we've not forced the issue to be honest. She is showing an interest though and occasionally asks to go on it. We skipped the balance bike thing since she...
