I'll bear that one in mind, thanks!

I agree, it was only when I put it on the bike that I realised it was too high, but I'll keep looking for other suitable stems.

Just a quick update on the progress of my new build, the 1992 GT Bravado. It has now had some parts fitted Tioga Avenger RX 1 1/1" threaded headset Zoom stem (120mm length) GT Aluminium handlebars Shimano XT hubs laced to Mavic M231 CD rims Shimano Deore XT front and rear derailleurs Shimano SLR...

That bike looks stunning, you've done a great job on it and love the colours too!

Can we even be sure they're titanium frames? They look more like scaffolding tubes to me! 🤔 🤣

fair enough.

Found these in my watchlist, was going to buy them but I found a pair in my spares box which will be going on my GT Bravado https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156284094106?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=i_iXYy5GRtq&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=d2zLQnRbQvW&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Hi, Can I ask what handlebars are fitted to your Diamond Back? They look nice!

I took a pair of those Avid levers of a Mongoose Iboc Pro SX with a combination of V's and Cantis. Not found a use for them yet, I prefer shorter levers. I'll put them up for sale soon.

My most recent purchase on FB Marketplace was my 1992 GT Pantera AL and when I went to check it over and clean after purchase, I found that the forks were fitted without the crown race, but had two sets of caged bearings instead. Thankfully I found a spare crown race to fit, cleaned up the...

I used to cut a piece plastic from a drinks bottle and attached to my bike with a clothes' peg, I though it was the best bit of the bike in the late 70's!

Gotta love those Ritchey dropouts!😍

That bike looks great, love the colour too! I bet it's a blast to ride.

Hoping to finish the build on my '92 GT Bravado by the end of the year. Parts still to find; 27.0mm Seatpost - GT or equivalent quality - minimum 350mm length Seat clamp - GT or Hope 28.6 Bottom bracket - Shimano XT or equivalent Chain set - Shimano Deore XT or DX Chain - 7 speed Shimano or best...

There's a reason why they stopped making and selling them after a while?

I have few sets of Shimano XT V brakes with parallel push and I had trouble with noise and vibration. I have Avid 2.0 brakes on my Tempest and Shimano LX (same shape as the red DX sets) brakes on my Tequesta and they work just fine.

Nothing wrong with the braking power of U-Brakes, if well set up they work just fine!
