Thanks for your comments, I still have this and it’s still getting a bit of use here and there. It’s a size 18”, a 19” would probably be a better fit for me tbh but I like it as it is and think the proportions of the smaller frame size look a bit better. Maybe something to do with how chunky the...

Wow that was pretty rough when you got it, how’s it looking now? Any progress? I’m confident the paint on mine is original, just the stem that was part chrome and part bright red. 👍

Thanks for all the above, some helpful info there. I’m meant to be packing to go camping with my boy but couldn’t resist a quick tinker. Somewhat unbelievably the stem and seatpost both came straight out, this is a good sign for the rest of the build! Mudguards were in poor shape and have come...

Thanks! A truely lucky find for me, I just hope I can do it justice, I’ve not properly restored a bike this old before. I’ll likely be back with a few questions along the way. I’m not thinking of making it as good as new, but if I can clean it up, service the moving parts, and get it riding well...

Just collected this gorgeous one owner bike from the daughter of the original owner. It was advertised as the frame only and was very cheap and local to me. When I collected it I politely asked if they knew what happened to the original wheels and the lady found them in an outbuilding of the...

Good condition, spins smoothly and runs true. 9mm q/r. Asking £50 plus post. Also on eBay (at slightly higher price!) More pics etc no probs just pm me. Thanks

PM sent. 👍

It’s been awhile but thought I should update this. The Kila has become my go to hardtail which is exactly what I hoped it would be. It’s such a great bike, here it is as of today: I found a more suitable saddle in my spares (I forgot I had it!), I had to ditch the gripshift too. I’ve never...

Got this finished off (at least for now) today. I’d like to strip and polish or maybe repaint the forks but otherwise I’m happy with it as it sits. I’ve touched in a few tiny spots on the frame and I think the ti flite suits the overall look. The original handlebar grips are so thin and light...

Thanks, yes my thoughts exactly - I have everything here for a wide range 1x9 setup. :)

Thanks, I just popped a last second bid in and hoped for the best. It should/would have gone for more if split down further and if postage was offered. Didn’t help that it was caked in mud also!

Thanks, appreciate it. Trying to find a balance between building and riding but still loving this hobby!

New pick up: Going to piece this together with parts I’ve got knocking around. Not going to be particularly high end but should be a decent bike for not too much outlay. 👍

Hi, I have these for sale: Really good condition as the pics show, I know I won’t use them so offered here for sale at £100 plus post (uk only), PayPal f+f over cover the fees. Thanks.

It’s been a while but I had to strip this down and put it in storage while I cleared some space. I put some air in the forks before I stored it and bagged everything up in a box. I finally have enough room to build this back up so I dug it out today. The forks seem to have held pressure which is...

Glad it went to a good home, nice to meet you today Andrew. :)

Pm headed to you. 👍

Anyone need this? It came on my Kilauea and I’ve since changed it out for an LX one. £10 posted to UK. Thanks.

Some heel rub but lots of life left. Came off a working bike, threads all good etc. Asking £25 posted to UK for cranks and bb. Thanks

Pretty good condition, saddle fabric is lifting ‘down in the valley’ at the back. Asking £13.50 posted to UK. Thanks
