I picked up the freshly powdercoated frame which I had done in the original colour. It looks really nice after I applied fresh decals. Now I just need some time to complete the assembly.

Bargain, shame it's too far away.

I've managed to get a stem I like. Saw a 25.4mm DMR stem (I know the faceplate is upside down) which is the same era as the chainring so will match nicely. I like that it has a hidden clamp which gives it a clean look.

I really like these and yours looks very nice. I've always got an eye out for one. I think they were one of the lightest frames avaliable at the time and the last decent frame Schwinn made.

Yes it was, it looked a right state. Worth a punt at £20, pushing it at £100.

Very cheap but something tells me it has a stuck seatpost. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1202823044476876/

I really want a set of these, just a shame that I'm a bit short on funds at the moment. Good luck with the sale.

Recently I received a care package from Dr-Zocchi (highly recommended) so I can rebuild some of my forks, this included an FS to IS adapter for this project. I can now test fit the front brake, this showed that a little material needed to be filed off so the the bolt holes would line up. It...

Quite a nice set of Z2s in Good condition. Stanctions look clean and unmarked, there are some paint chips and the crown could do with a polish. The seem to work well with no apparent leaks but may benefit a service. 190mm steerer. £50 posted or £40 if collected (near J15 M1)

The contis will probably be getting binned as the sidewalls are quite perished and the tread on the rear is pretty bald. They are a good tyre off road but found them lethal on tarmac, felt like riding on Ice. I may replace with XC Fire Pros as they are quite cheap.

Had a test ride round the block and it's really nice, surprisingly light and quick to get upto speed. A very capable addition to the stable. I think it need new tyres and wheels trued.

Put the front brake on. Last thing to do is sort out the hoses, considering getting a bike shop to do it as I don't have any experience with Hayes brakes.

I have found a solution to my steer tube problem. I originally wanted to get the long steer tube moved from the Z1 crown to the z2 crown. But I bought a broken set of Z1s cheap that I can get working so I can put these on the Snake. These look pretty good and look like they've slackened the...

I'm planning on refurbing some Marzocchi forks as they're in a bit of a sorry state. I'm planning on changing the colour so that they're close to Bomber orange. Option 1 is to do them at home. This might be quite rewarding if the finish comes out quite good. But might not be a cost effective...

Yep, 1 1/4 threaded. About 140 long.

Some forks that were on an Alpinestars Cro Mega E stay. Don't ask about the frame, it has a horrible repair to a crack and has a stuck seat post so is being turned into wall art. Free if collected from near Northampton or pay postage of £10.

This little frame has been built, rebuilt and now dismantled. The first build was how I wanted it, but on a budget. I put it together thinking about pump tracks and dirt jumps so had just a rear brake. Then my boy grew out of his kids bike and I changed it a bit, I got some DMR Drone forks...

I've not seen another one in the wild, the Snake was about the time Sintesi went downhill. I do love Marzocchi forks and it makes sense to have them on an Italian frame. The Z1s are currently on my Curtis SuperX but with the Z2 crowns fitted. I want to get the steer tubes swapped at some point.
