I know Marin made an official one that adapted to Hope 1's as detailed on post #3 here -> http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=178975 but this adapter is likely to be about as easy to find as hens teeth or horse feathers and then there is the added complication of getting the right...

Re: Hi, I'm going to dig this one up from a few months ago but its the most recent B-17 build I've seen. Great looking bike by the way! Anyway I've got one of these frames complete with forks sat around waiting for some love and I've decided that now is the time. I don't have the frame to look...

I thought about this but all the stuff is surplus from my personal supplies. The gripshifts are spares and the Cantis arnt really all that suitable for the ridding in the actual mountains ive found.. The money made on these however is going into the scouts bike budget

More added

Frames are now gone, but the tyres are still available. More to follow tomorrow, All with pics.

Oh, can I also post that we are in need of many gear parts. Anything is accepted as we can mix and match to see what we can come up with. Eg. Chains, Front and rear mechs, shifters, cranks etc.. Thanks so much.

Unfortunately I'm away that weekend, thanks for the offer though

Hey guys, Giving away some old stuff and stuff that I cant really use for the scouts. Most of what they do is off road so all the road stuff is up for grabs, Added prices, all these plus P+P. So we have. Two road tyres both Specialized 295x150 £10? Two Un-marked Shimano thumb shifters...

Hey guys, It has finished. The tube is now all gone and the frame has been cleaned all nicely inside and out. Thanks for the advice, worked a dream, the tube pipe is now really clean and smooth too, meaning the new tube goes in perfect. Cheers

Hey guys, Many thanks to Monsterfatuk and longbeech for their donations. Between the two of them, I have very nearly managed a complete bike, with some spare as well! Cheers!

Excellent guy. Boxed, Posted and Received within the week.

Hey guys, Sorry to hear about the bad experience. Launch a paypal dispute, leave it say 2-3 working days just to be on the safe side then esculate it. Paypal are always more than happy to help and do so quickly and effectively. Dont go about closing your Ebay account though, as was...

Out of interest where is the MM this year and when?

Ok, so if I go down that route. What do I do if the blade isnt long enough to reach the botton of the post? And even when Its cut, if it has bonded to the steel, how do I shift it then? The Chemical route is working, not exactly fast but I have proof it is working and so I may just...

Hey guys, Operatives picture show, I believe a 1998 one. Atleast thats what I have down my cellar and thats what I was told it was? Maybe wrong mind. G

Quick question. Ive changed the solution to a stronger one to work faster. Will heat also work as a catalyst in this process or not, I know it does in some cases but not others. Any other ideas how I can make it go faster because ive missed a few good days of riding now :( Any ideas...
