Would be interested by the yellow label one to complete a restoration if you ever decide to split.

The crown on the right is also the same than on '93 Mag 21.

If there's no BB shell thread, aren't you limited to things like Mavic 616?

You're pretty demanding: vice, weld, fire :LOL: OK, I do have a hair dryer at hand. But for the remaining, I'll have to wait a couple months before having access to a proper workbench. Coincidentally, I was also overhauling yet another, older, Pulstar rear hub (still USA-made) with the reverse...

So it would rather be four screw drivers or pin punches ;-) As the problem is not being two (the Park Tool SPA-1 pin spanner can do a better job in this aera), but being four to hold the freehub support strongly enough without damaging the pinholes. But the masonry nails is a nice idea: now that...

Lacing now complete, minus one missing spoke. In the meantime, I had a look at the whole Park Tool catalogue. Except for the SPA-1/2/6 pin spanners, nothing that would resemble the 4-pin thing I'm after.

Thanks for the ideas. Double challenge: find this 4-pin spanner (or make one; so triple challenge) and a vice not too far from me.

Good point on the sealed bearings. The Ritchey non-Super Logic bottom brackets however came with standard ball bearings in ball retainers. Now that you're talking about sealed bearings... Well, no, in the end. I just checked a Suntour XC Pro bottom bracket: it came with standard ball bearings...

The shape of Park Tool HCW-4 didn't allow reaching the pins of the freewheel support. So I went with SPA-2 pin spanner. Now THE question: unscrew in clockwise or counter-clockwise? I tried counter-clockwise, as freewheel will naturally screw clockwise when pedaling. No progress at the moment...

Hi, Just wondering, as I couldn't find a NIB Ritchey Logic bottom bracket, only NOS, opened box. Did they come with a dust seal, as Shimano BB-M730 bottom bracket for example (part #9 in https://si.shimano.com/fr/pdfs/ev/BB-M730-1090/EV-BB-M730-1090.pdf)? If no, is it recommended to install...

Hi, I'm working on a rear Pulstar hub. USA-made, not Taiwan. The drive-side bearing is shot. But to extract this (sealed) bearing, I had to remove the freehub, including the star part (don't know the name) that screws into the hub shell. This star part has 4 pins, 2.2mm diameter each with 26mm...

Hi, Was wondering if this is possible? The hub shell looks similar to me. Is it just replacing the axle and outer caps? BTW, any ideas when these hubs entered the market? I can find the "classic" RC-50 composite hub in the '93 Pace hardware catalogue, but I've no idea for the XC and MT Lock...

Are you sure it's 1991? I thought that S-bent chainstays and seatstays were later.

Pictures stolen from velovintageagogo.com website. This thing was killer in the mud.

Hi, How do you tell the difference between a '93 Pace RC-35 AB and a '94 RC-35 XCS? The wiki (https://www.retrobike.co.uk/wiki/Pace) only states: Similar to the AB fork but featuring a simpler brace. How simpler? There's no picture of such XCS fork on Goatsurfer (only Scapin version, so don't...

Hi, I'm after the rim in title. All I can find is 36 holes. Or in 20" or 700c size. Or the silver version. I need the dark one in 32 holes, 26". Thanks!

Nope. Litespeed in the USA.

Hi, Which bottom bracket this spindle was made for? The only occurrences I can find are in the 1993 Merlin catalogue (well, 1994 here in the Archive section; the 1993 and 1994 catalogues are swapped). In 1993, the Merlin Mountain frame no more has Grease Guard ports drilled in the bottom...

And what about the reverse: is it possible to thread a threadless steerer to convert from threadless to threaded headset?
