+1 for all the good things that have been said about Schwalbe Marathon tyres and they're very long lasting.

I think you're right. Shimano also had the C-deck brifters which I've got on a Spesh hybrid but I don't have the dials :confused:

I remember doing something very similar to this when I encountered the same problem.

PM sent re Marathon Racer tyres as requested

I'd like to buy these tyres but I'd like to see some pictures first. Thank you.

I remember having those Ever-Ready lights and try as I might I can't seem to forget them! All those D-cell batteries which lasted about a week and weighed a ton! I 'progressed' to a pair of Cateye lights which I think I may still have but I don't want to look for them because I'm afraid I...

Following on from the extra smooth transaction above Julian offered to karma me some outer brake and gear cables for a resurrection project I was working on. Absolutely Top Man!

Tracks on garage doors - yes! For the bike I do much the same as most people on here copper ease for assisting servicing and HM point grease for bearings. Thanks again for the replies.

I can see it's uses and I'll buy a can which I probably won't use that much but keep it handy for those specific jobs. As you say "Its a useful thing to have about."

Is that a new Kona model?

Is it any good? What have you used it for? What were you using before? Just pondering it's possible uses before investing the princely sum of £4 in an experimental purchase. Thanks.

Another satisfied customer here. I bought a crankset from Julian which arrived quickly, well packed and his comms were superb throughout the tranasction. Very highly recommended:):cool:

Good afternoon, If they're still for sale I'd like to buy: Sending you a PM

PM on it's way re: STX rear mech £12, Tektro v brake levers £8 etc :)

A (very good) car mechanic told me many years ago that: "you tighten the bolt until it's about to strip the thread and then back it off a quarter turn!"o_O I don't adhere to that advice.

Currently unavailable :(

Cor, that was quick:cool:

Some rather nice frames there! What are the "orphaned forks" you speak of?

I bought some brakes which arrived super quick and I'm well pleased with them. Very easy transaction from start to finish with this top man! Highly recommended!
