    If we are talking about things that trigger, metal is turned on a lathe. Lathed makes makes my teeth itch 😖 👍

    XTR M952 chainring rot

    A nice thick layer of anodising, then paint, with corrosion inhibitor on top (LPS3). Then keep it away from things that will damage the coatings (chains!) and electrolytes (sweat and road salt) and cow and sheep shit. :LOL: In reality keeping it washed & lubed is about all you can do.

    XTR M952 chainring rot

    Thats exfoliation corrosion. The corrosion migrates along the materials grain boundries its particularlly common in the higher strength alloys 2024, 7075 etc. I have seen bits of aircraft structure that looks like a well thumbed paperback :oops:

    Swallow

    Check out the width of the BB shell! Also, is it an optical illusion or is there something odd (asymmetric) with the seatstays?

    I wonder if the forks are origional to the frame 🤔 The seatstays on my Venom are of the same construction as these forks & it seems strange to have a welded fork on a fillet brazed frame.

    Help! My new Ti 90's bike

    Nice :cool: Is the tube set externally butted? I cant quite decide from the pictures, the top end of the seatstays makes me think yes but Im not sure about the headtube junction. Any chance of some close ups of the seat cluster, BB cluster and the head tube welds?

    MTB, Pollard ???

    So what's the conclusion then? Built by Bromwich or Jim McIlwain or Lee Cooper (both with Bromwich in the past I believe)?

    Cinelli ti inch or 1&1/8 quill stem

    Not sure if it is 1 & 1/8". Description is ATB 1 1/8" or Tria 1". Seems expensive for an incomplete component.

    I am curious what this bike is

    Parkpre used a cable guide like this but I dont think it is one as I dont recall them having the butt welded seat tube.🤔

    Nice little British project - Venom Sabre/ Sabre Venom

    I know that there are not may of them about but this frame does not look like any of the other Venom mtbs. I would like to see a frame number because I cant shake the feeling that this is a Rockhopper (or similar) that has had a few small mods & a paint job.

    Nice little British project - Venom Sabre/ Sabre Venom

    I have had this in my watchlist for a while but cant get past a niggle that it looks rather "Specialized" with crud catcher bosses added. I love the paint :cool: that it has now.
