I picked this up a couple of weeks ago. I'll tell what i know, but there is very little info available about the builder so if you know anything else, please shout up. Martrac were frame builders in Middlesbrough, run by a brother and sister called Martin & Tracy. They made mostly track...

I've picked up what i believe is an Overbury's Pioneer. I've got limited knowledge about it. I'd have dated it about 1988, but the crank arms date to April / May 89 (FD dates to 88) so i guess it's an 89. As you can see, it's got a Suntour roller-cam on the rear. It's been rattle-canned...

Re: Well, two days ago I didn't expect to be joining this thread, but (assuming I'm right with my ID) when opportunity knocks.... Overburys is a builder I was aware of, but not very knowledgeable about so here goes. I'd probably date it at 88ish ? It looks like it was originally full yellow...

Re: Thanks folks much appreciated. I'll send messages around a couple of bits. Just to clarify, I think I'll likely to be looking for excellent used, as the NOS Euclid looks like it's expensive but slow to sell.

Re: Cheers folks.

Over the next few months I'm going to need the following Campag Euclid parts: Front deraileur Rear deraileur Chainset Pedals Seat post Seat QR 2 sets of rubber spring covers for u-brake May also consider similar Campag parts and while a wheelset isn't a priority, let me know if you're selling...

Excellent condition. Silky smooth bearings. £85 posted.

Re: Would a trade involving some XC Pro pedals be of any interest?

I have a 95 Lava Dome that has a seat collar cable guide for the rear canti brake. Where the inner cable goes along the top tube, it has a very thin plastic outer which goes through the guide. (I hope this makes sense, but I think if you know, you know) I am wondering - A. what this thin...

Re: Thanks Ishaw, A lot has changed since I did any BB learning :D I realise now it'll be a modern BB with external bearings - good to know about spacers based on shell width. The chainset (& group set) is Sram Force carbon stuff - coming from a friend but i don't know more than that...

I've got a 95 Lava Dome that's going retro-mod. It's away at the painters at the minute and I could do with sorting out a bottom bracket while it's away. Anyone know the details I'll need - size etc? Thanks.

Re: Re: The yellow one is 88 - a few years older than yours, which is more like my 94? Tufftrax, and a Gmax special edition that I had.

Re: Thanks LGF, I'm not buying, just helping to properly identify & value ready for sale. Everyone's help much appreciated.

Re: Cheers LGF, So much less fur the full bikes? Less even than F&F :shock:

Re: Here's my time-warp 1988 Tufftrax - pimples on the tyres kind of thing. 8) For sale thread coming at some point.

Re: Re: Not much - I know Saracen made a lot of non-regular model bikes. There was one of these for sale in the North East recently.

As Always, stunning bikes. Peachy's Claude Butler has to have my vote - such a handsome bike from a great era.

That's a very handsome bike.
