Sounds great. Anything goes, so easy to swap bits on this era bikes. In reality only my rear hub is Hope, and Hope headset off my Cotic Bfe. it's a great combo as you say.

Ooh nice work. I'm building one of these as one of my slow burners! I'm opposite in I was riding early 90s Oranges and missed these when they were out as I'd not seen them and probably a bit XC marketed for my interests at the time. So it's future nostalgia for me a newer version of my old bike...

Hiya yes it's me! Bikes are less stress in theory so faffing with those more than cars. Pity you didn't buy the car. It was scrapped anyway I believe. I'm back in a faithful old French car again.

Handsome Dog Boner stem, NOS , some rise and maybe 60mm reach, will check if interested £20

Some of the nice parts I'll most likely not be using. 31.8 new Bars £26 ea DMR and Boo Bar reduced to £23! I gave them a look over and wipe with a cloth and they both look great, minimal storage and/or fitting marks and strong enough for any discipline. DMR Wingbar, Original design in silver...

Bump reduced £70ono

Thanks, I agree. I was running through it in checkout and it was icing on the cake - another fee to layer on! So just checking fees wont get too mental if staying below £135. I think using eBay as a tool in this case is a good idea. The seller says this is the only way now and I can see why. 👍

Hi, (I hope this is a good place to ask. please move if it's an issue) I know many of you have been shopping abroad for a while and have experience. I'd like to buy parts from a retro bike business on eBay in Germany. I had an order before Brexit but with Covid madness they couldn't send it! -...

Saturday bump!

I bought these new earlier this year as a spare set on eBay, I've fitted a set on my Slackline, these are spares! :D Was going to pit them on my Posh Slackline but gone with RF Atlas, that's the plan anyway. Looking for £90 plus post. PP Gift/F&F would be a bonus. (Curious about 170mm so could...

Bump at £115! 🤯 If they don't sell at this I'll keep em and list some of my used 24mm versions instead.

Yeah you're right. Back in the day whatever bike we had we did everything and anything on it and in most cases our only bike! :O I've built a few all rounders with 100 - 125mm forks from 2000-2011 with fairly traditional geo 69/70/71 degree head, fairly short CS 415-425 trying to get the...

These things are great, can't believe no takers yet. Waffley Versatile! I had an 18", and then a 20" Virtue that fits better, but just ruined that idea by building an 18" DMR Switchback too and made it fit! These would make a great Trailstar replica.... Free bump

Only 10 years? :O I'd be curious truly if Gravel really is different to our all rounder ATB and MTBs of the 90s and late 80s? In late 2011/2012 I bought a Genesis Day One for commuting. Kind of a gravel bike, but they did't exist then, I was looking at CX, which i'd never race or use properly...

Having a sale at £120 for PayPal Family for reliable RB regulars, plus special delivery at £8.95

Yeah it was here. 😀 just cleaned out the ad as no takers here.

The Ride sold a while ago on eBay. Some available deals with retailers though if you're looking.

Hiya Steve, Thanks! I'm happy with it, having some bits in stock helped but I think this is exactly where it needed to be spec wise, so glad I kept going with the parts and build. T2s seem good, I've got the old Tornados, a bit heavier than an XC rim, but still very reasonable for the strength...

So Mid 2021 (time flies!) I ordered a random last in shop NOS Switchback frame.... The first Switchback wasn't meant to be for me and although fun the 16" was a short reach so when a mate found an 18" NOS frame hanging on a wall of a shop, I couldn't stop thinking about it and eventually gave...
