Thanks 👍- that's a comprehensive way to view it all. I think I'm a bit OCD when it comes to changing original bikes. The average person on the street wouldn't care less no doubt but we are all a bit zany in the retro bicycles world. I'm going to put new tyres and new brake blocks are defo needed...

Hello - not been on here in a while. I'm currently working on an Apollo Legend bicycle. I've started really getting back into the kinds of bikes that were maybe affordable when I was younger and not chasing dreams as much - since acquiring this trusty stead I have moved further and further away...

Hey - Thanks - never checked these out so will do - got a few tyres to check now - thanks 👍

Great 👍- on first look I thought they were too chunky but they actually look quite good for trail/tarmac. Thanks

Hello 👋- anyone got any suggestions for a good pair of 26 tyres 2.2 ish that are similar to the halo ? These are on this bike packing build at the moment but I'd like to get something a bit sturdier on the side walls for a camping tour I'm planning. The Saracen is not by any stretch a top ranger...

Hello, I'm posting my large frame Gazelle Cheetah Dutch bike (if I have it in the wrong place apologies but I'm sick of eBay and time wasters) - its collection only at £120 - its a lovely old bus. Im 6ft 3 (drop me a line for more specific measurements) Needs a new front hub brake, I have the...

Hi sorry I managed to lock myself out of the forum with incorrect passwords - I haven’t had a chance to measure but they’re off a Dawes Countryman - Shimano biopace - I’ll try measure tomorrow - problem I have is someone wants the pedals and I can’t get them off - tug of war for charity ?

Pedals are still avail but I can’t get them off the cranks unfortunately

The pedals might work for a BMX build ?? - the other stuff is MTB but let me know if pedals could work - I can't actually get them off the cranks so may need some Lurpack and a hammer. 10 pounds for the pedals any good??

These came off a bike a few months ago - any good to anyones projects? If not there going in my Recycled Bike Charity drop off on Friday. £10 - plus postage for the lot. I can't get the pedals off the crankset. Thanks

Thanks - I'll get a pair of vernier calipers to be certain. Thanks for the replies

Hi - I'm trying to source a longer seat post for a Gazelle Cheetah (1970/80s) I think. I can't seem to find a post with the right diameter and wondered if any classic road bikes etc may use a similar diameter but with a longer post. The seat post tapers in at the bottom so I think the correct...

Hello - Found this Gazelle Cheetah left out for the scrap man near where I live - rescued it - rode it and love it so currently sorting and mending into a long legged fellows summer tourer - The ID stamp is GH8 0805 - I'm just wondering what that means.?? Apologies if I'm on the wrong thread...
