there was once a guy telling me to never consider a Specialized lower than a Stumpjumper. This is the perfect proof that he was so wrong. It's less the model, more what you do make out of it. Your bike combines a lot, nice old school steel frame, but nicely done with great parts and even very...

just adding a nice picture, It's not from me, but I haven't asked the owner neither, if someone has a concern, just let me know Just because this fits nicely to what @MattiThundrrr has said and illustrates nicely that stem length but also bar length do have quite a bit of impact on steering...

great stuff, unfortunately missing at MSYT's bike, here's a close-up anyway, last post, don't want to sidetrack here this offer any longer.

Nice bike, let me add a pictures and documenations from a buyers guide 1991 and an advertisment from MBK It was the top-of-line model, with Columbus tube set, equipped with XT and with a great paint job, still 13Kg and MBK is typically not the brand most Retrobike fans do have on their...

I had once a superlight, but not even a picture of the bike any longer 😢, therfore I do understand your desire... With regards to the worth, the bike in the picture has quite nice parts, in particular the cranks, as far what I can see, and if I'm right, titan Sweet Wings with compact spider...

cool story wow, the shown custom levers,- mostly from Spain, right? - are all a really nice alternative to an Avid one. BTW: I had the chance to buy once some Spanish MTB buyers guide magazines from the SoloBici magazine and was surprised about the enormous presence of local brands, not just...

Nice description, just it would be still very helpful to post pictures. I would love to see the "weird" design too.

I have seen some tests and measurements also once in a bike magazine proving that wider tires doesn't have to have a higher rolling resistance than smaller ones. In this test it was even quite the opposite and for some tires, they have testes various sizes of one and the same model. There are a...

indeed a great story and nice read, thanks for sharing this 👍 Just browsed my archives, but only found a small article in the German Bike Magazine, July Issue 1994, introducing Cosme, with a similar nice blue bike: I've tried to translate it using, but Google translate wasn't doing a very...

BTW: there is a nice Maxam brochure from 1991 on Ebay since a while https://www.ebay.com/itm/266826657714? Not my offer, but pictures of the offer are quite good and it looks like there is a scan of the entire brochure.

ah, interesting, i had once the same fork. I guy from France sold a couple of them in NOS at ebay. There was a Peugeot sticker but no other information. Sure, quality was obviously low and weight high, still, it looks good at your bike! Pic for the Gallery

there are quite a few more brands which have used a similar frame back in time: Miles a CZ brand if I'm not mistaken Corratec Grand Grizzly 1992 (but welds look different)

hey, I do have 1998, 2000, 2001 and 2004 catalogs. Potentially I want to sell them again, therefore I do not want to share yet complete scans, because I want to get at least some of the money I've paid for... Let me share some selected pics from 2001, but I'm also not sure exactly about your...

Big Thanks to @90's Ninja for providing some more Norco catalogs to the Archive! Great stuff, this gets now more and more complete. https://www.retrobike.co.uk/archive/categories/norco.391/

I personally find that the Speed Dial helps to adjust the levers to some extent do support both, cantilever and v-brakes. At least running "L" levers orginally for V-brakes with Canti does work for me OK. But here is a bit of history and more information on the Avid levers...

Nice wheels, I do like Onyx too. The first listing i've found was in a buyers guide for the season 2000. Showing the page for the Whizz-Wheels wheelsets, just because there was one page listing DT-Hügi and DT-Swiss wheels at the same page. The hubs alone had been covered in this buyers guide...

a bit more precisely, yours has an Shimano LX 550, available from 1990 to 1992 maybe it's a model called Kings Canyon, here in a dutch brochure from 1992 the scan is from https://www.peugeotshow.com/1992nl.html there is another good webpage with a lot of scans...

not the same, but very likely from same series and model year, Peugeot Team Pro from 1991
