Hello,Due to wifey moving over to flat pedals for all her biking and more or less giving up the road riding these spd’s are now surplus to requirements. There is one pair of PD-M540’s there is a small amount of play in the inside bearings ,but they too work very well ,maybe a bearing change at...

Hello guys,I have 4 Hope Tech 3 reservoir lids,All in black and as good as new.Wifey wanted to change the lids on her bikes to a pretty colour so these are now spare.How does £15 posted sound ,They normally retail at £8-30 each but most retailers will charge postage on top of that. All the best

Hello Yoda,yes sorry it sold some time ago to another forum member.Good luck with your search though Kevin

i have a 9 speed sram x7 shifter and x5 rear mech to match,sorry they are a bit grubby,i haven’t cleaned them up yet Fallguy.

I have this ,It is a sytace stem,I paid over £100 for this when I bought it,it is in very nice condition,very light but dh rated,(as are most of syntace’s kit) 110 mm long with 10mm rise,for std 25.4 mtb bars and 1 1/8th steerer. £35 or make me a reasonable ( or even an unreasonable offer) All...

I dont have a syncross Corbeau,I have got a very nice Syntace,over £100 when I bought it new.It’s 110mm so a bit long but take a look anyway

Hello MSYT, Not exactly what you want but may be of use to you. 1) X7 9 speed shifter 2) X5 front shifter 3) X5 rear mech 9 speed 4) deore top pull front mech There is virtually no difference between the X5,7 and 9 series Deore front mechs are compatible with sram shifters and look virtually the...

To be honest the 2023 shot looks light years better,sorry if anyone doesn’t agree but honestly this just demonstrates what happens when 2 tons of Land Rover bares it’s teeth.Can any of you honestly say you would rather ride the top photo than the bottom,seriously ?

At least 3 x what it is worth

Hi float,be scared,I sold the Bon Tempe and kept my Castellano soft tail .I rode it recently and despite nearly 4” of front suspension and a softtail rear end with 2” of travel I came back feeling hammered.On the new bike I come back feeling fresh,and not in the slightest bruised so I dont use...

Hi M-power,I have this,it’s a Syntace mtb stem,110 mm reach ,only 1cm rise ,1 1/8” steerer, but this was a very expensive piece of kit when I bought it. I paid around £100 for it way back when I bought it for my WTB Bon Tempe. It’s very light but very strong ,I think they rated it for Down hill...

never did Mike,but we had a rethink,both me and wifey had far too many bikes so we bought a couple of really nice e mtbs and both kept the Castellanos for shorter rides,.Sold 5 other bikes but in the end couldn’t bear to part with the soft-tails. all the best

Hi Dandy,I have a pair of 165 mm Hope rotors if they are the right size for you.

bump

For nearly 20 years this was my main ride and it hardly ever got a second glance.If it did it was by true retro geeks,my mates bikes were much more ordinary and got the looks,it has now been sold (on this site).Now the new hotness gets the looks,

Yep, 62 last month and I have shifted tons of stuff,my garage is now empty of clutter and I have only 2 bikes a Ducati TK01-RR Mullet ebike,and a very nice almost retro Castellano silk Ti soft tail,and I have to say it has made life simpler. Technology isn’t always good but some is very very...

I totally understand, i went through a similar dilemma and it got to a point where it just wasn't worth the time and energy that was required to source old stuff which was invariably half worn out. All the bike shops sell 9 speed and will for a long time to come, I would bite the bullet and...

Hi greybeard,I have tried most of the sram shifters over the last few decades.If I were you I would upgrade to 9 speed,the X5 through X9 are pretty bombproof,they seem to wear less than shimano over the years in that they do not develop the same amount of “slop” I do like xtr kit but I prefer...

I would agree with brocklander,If you are worried just set the sag so they are the same length when you are sitting on the bike.A couple of inches makes little difference with suspension forks since they are changing length the whole time,extending into trail holes and compressing over bumps.I...

What’s your budget Warrior,I have a pair but don’t want to waste your time if mine are too expensive.
