Big thanks to Mike https://www.retrobike.co.uk/members/viengsavanh.38141/ for offering up 2x lip seals he had. Really appreciated 👏👏👏 Also found a grub screw in my own box of spares that fits. Didn’t realise it was there. Had it since my Giant MCM team build 30yrs ago. I knew I kept it for a...

Drop me a photo of the bits, tyres and Canti could be useful 👍

I saw that blue one locally advertised and went to buy it from the seller. Then totally forgot to follow up on it. Glad it’s gotta good home 👏👏👏

I’ve got a pair but they are going sticky / gummy

I’ve had a look but not found anything within the catalogues I know of. But I only have access to uk, french and USA catalogues.

Ah brilliant, like that thanks for sharing

great, I've pm'd you just now and will take them.

thanks for trying / checking = appreciated

I need one JonRock, do you have any available?

Ah good point... just measured it and diameter is 7.2mm / length is 8.5mm (length doesn't really matter though). Also realised I'm missing a plastic O-Ring bush thingy (bugger) so updated the thread accordingly

(Slight thread update - all sorted thanks) Hi all, managed to source a set of black Grafton brakes for my Trek 8900. I’m just missing two important parts, as follows: 1. One of the Canti cable grub screw stops is missing. Anyone got one spare or know of an online link to something similar...

Settled on the foam grips, work fine… and the skinny Continental tyres suit the bike well as a pub bike steed. Overall really happy with it

Went for a coffee and paid homage to my 80s/90s bike shop Ythan Cycles. This is where my Peugeot ownership began. Bought my first Peugeot Trail from here in 1989ish (well my parents bought it🤣). The left over signage can still be seen today. As a teenage I’d stare through the window dreaming on...

Joined the cycle club at our new pump track… did multiple laps and my 11yr son had a hop around on it too for a laugh!

Got it finished this morning before taking my son to cycle club. Decided to take the Montana with me for a wee spin too and get some photos of it finished (for now). It’s too large a frame for me but still mega comfy to ride.

Any update on your frame restoration?

Thanks, it’s got battle scars and definitely not NOS, but it’s still a gorgeous period Peugeot bicycle. I did get it all back together tonight except for new cable set. Will do that tomorrow. I put the Onza bar grips on but agree, will be swapped out to more period correct foam replicas. Covid...

Biopace, ahead of its time, cool concept… terribly executed in reality 🤣🤣. That’s all for now, assembly has started and finished photos by Sunday hopefully 🤞🤞
