Re: Wife build, Mongoos IBOC Team 1992 - custom paint job Do you know where i can get the marine waterproof grease? what else is it used for?

Re: Wife build, Mongoos IBOC Team 1992 - custom paint job yeah I will throw away that BB, the frame hasn't had bottle holder screws in it for a long time so water gathered up in the bb shell, corroding the BB unit. I just used elbow grease and autosol. 600 grit sandpaper, then 800 grit, then...

Re: Wife build, Mongoos IBOC Team 1992 - custom paint job Frame polished up and ready for the candy powder coat :) (Candy colours either require a mirror polished metal or a reflective base coat, so there for the elbow grease)

Need a pair of good looking and functional XTR M952 9 spd STI units, both left & right. PM me with details and pics.

Looking for a zoom (NOS preferably) quill stem, 1 black and 1 silver. Also looking for a NOS hyperlite bar or similar,

Also (I might be beheaded for this) TREKK... Isn't that like naming a good pair of hiking boots "Bike"..?

IBOC.... International Bicycle Of Champions was always very silly for an Acronym. I cringed when designing the stickers for my Iboc Team....

Re: 1992 Mongoose Amplifier in Fluro yellow - Rebuild! Cranks sorted.. Couldn't resist these I might swap out the bolts for a turquoise ones Also possible to powder coat the arms in same fluro yellow as the bike :)

Re: 1992 Mongoose Amplifier in Fluro yellow - Rebuild! Thought about that too. When this powder coat gets worn from massive use it will probably end up polished. :)

Re: 1992 Mongoose Amplifier in Fluro yellow - Rebuild! Yes that is correct, Im only suppling the powder. Decided this time to skip the DIY painting

Re: FS: Race Face Evolve XC 175mm chainset Damn missed it by 30mins.. Second Dibs please :)

My old build thread and also my first build ever can be seen here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=197080 I was quite happy with the look of the old build but the rattle can paint job bothered me since its very sensitive and prone to chipping. So I decided to go for a complete rebuild and this time powder...
