    Show us your disc modded retro

    I understand, that's really easier. I once hit a small tree branch just enough to open the lever and since then I'm a little paranoid I guess...

    Awesome ride🤩 Wouldn't it be better to twist the front QR skewer so it looks backwards (like the rear one) so you don't accidently rip it open while riding?

    Great work, doesn't look like a conversion but like it was designed by the manufacturer.

    Is it acceptable to mix cable outer colours?

    The colour doesn't really matter, as long as it's black, I'm only using black....till they find something darker. Joking aside. Other colors are completely legitimate in my opinion. It's just much more difficult to develop a color concept for a bike than simply using black (this also applies...

    Thanks. The credit goes to the designers at Specialized, I haven't changed anything, just updated a few things.

    Today's Ride

    I took the long way to work again today and it was worth it. I even spotted the first hint of snow. However, leaves on the trails are a real challenge if you can't see where roots or stones are lurking. I even had the chance to jump some stumps.

    i testicoli del cane

    Congratulations! That's a really nice build although I'm no fan of white grips (because I usually mess them up when taking the bike off the work stand). You could put the end of the brake cables behind the V-brake arm, there is a little nose especially for that. That reduces the risk of ripping...

    Show us your Specialized

    Thank you, it has it's scratches here and there but it seems it hasn't been used that much. Most of the work was cleaning, polishing and getting the old grease out of the shifters. It's all original except for the cables, rim tape tubes and tyres.

    Today's Ride

    Not the best weather today but biking is always better than not biking. Unfortunately, the forestry workers have been very active in the last few days. And the town and the environmental associations here always claim that only mountain bikers are destroying the forest and paths and stressing...

    finding Unobtainium...

    The toad has now arrived at my shed, the messenger and I started the weekend with a successful bike exchange, which was extremely satisfying for both sides. So thanks for that Pat! The bike runs okay and so it was time to celebrate, but that's beside the point. The last week was pretty...

    Bikes and trains

    Well you are in the bikes up to 1997 section so this bike is a bit too young if I see it right. It's a very nice bike though, what is it and how happy are you with the Maguras? If you have one or more bikes from before 1997 then let us see them. That's what we're here for. Welcome!
