I've seen plenty of rusty nickle plated Marin and Orange frames. Does look nice though, but it seems like you do still need to give it a bit of love now and again. Never heard of anyone having a frame plated, would be interesting to know how much it costs.

Z1's were what most people I rode with used on their early Hecklers, weren't they all 100mm? Is there a decent size logo in the style of the "Santa Cruz" text on the downtube in that historic catalog of yours? If there is then I would love the most high resolution scan possible of it. I want...

Re: Manitou 2/3/4 Coil/Elastomer FrankenFork Build Thread A top quality write up, good to see someone trying hard to keep these classic forks in reliable regular use! I don't get why you prefer the alu stanchions to the steel ones - surely the wear is the same as that is what the bushings are for?

James managed to find a front mech for me through a wanted ad. Nicely packaged and just as described. All good stuff.

Bought some grips, just as described, what more could you want? :)

Ahh, but in the 50s and 60s they thought we would all be in flying cars by now...

Well thats good news, and was done very quietly! I still think the Huntingdon bypass is a good thing. The lack of east-west routes mean that if you want to get from the midlands to anywhere south or east of Huntingdon then you are sort of forced into using the A14 at some point. It's such a...

Arguably overall local noise and pollution will drop because the traffic is already there, but it won't be sat in big long queues at Brampton Hut and Spittals traffic lights. It's a shame you get more traffic 500m closer to home, but really what's the alternative?

Never realised they tried a brake linkage, never seen that before.

Awful condition 2070 frame that needs saving . Wasn't it only the factory team frames that had 'Raleigh' on the downtube? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Retro-rare-Ra ... 258c1cd714

Re: XTR M900 Wheels - Sun CR17A Rims - VGC - £90 posted I presume they don't come with the XTR skewers?

They did do a 56 / 58 ring, like the 20t pace ring I bought from ebay a few months ago. One side fits my XC Pro MD cranks a treat!

Sadly I suspect it will be. Do you know in general how expensive and difficult it is to ship to the USA from Canada (Kentucky in particular)?

Re: Re: I presume these have GT stamped into the lower leg?

Morning All, I'm after a decent light fork, something like the 750g Spinners and Marin Rockstars. Needs to be 1-1/8", either 165mm long threaded or 200mm threadless. Paint condition doesn't matter as long as it structurally good. What have you got? Phill

I'll have the grips please, will try to PM!

That's what faffin' time is for!

Well done Ireland, but Healy is a disgrace for the flying headbutt, a red card offence usually. I'd have thought he would have been a bit more careful after getting away with the punch on Warburton the other week.

Re: 2014 Gates planning thread Sounds like a plan to me! :D

I've been in touch with Gil, just started to discuss things with him. I want the decals to be the same as the current originals, I believe the ones he has done before were solid black, where my ones are just a white outline, with a tinted middle.
