    1985 ridgeback mtb advice needed - headset

    Re: Lovely old thing. Whereabouts are you Hosepipe? I narrowly missed out on one like that in a shop in Hove a few years ago. Reserved it, went back with some money and another member of staff hadn't been told and sold it! Can't be many about. Plenty more fish in the sea though.

    Re: And it's off! Currently with Tim (well most of it). Thanks everyone for your involvement, sounds like it might pass through a few hands along the way. I've known Tim for a while now and its definitely in safe hands.

    Columbus tubed mtb?

    Re: Columbus make some fairly ordinary tubing. This is probably the equivalent of a reynolds 501 carrera from halfords. Not to be sniffed at but nothing that special either...

    What's this?

    Re: I also read pre precision pinnacle 860 sandy sport and got nothing for that from google. Never seen one before, could be a local brand put on a generic alu frame. Those can be lost in the mists of time, especially in a small market. Mostly decent components and interesting looking wheels...

    What did I buy / is this anything?

    Re: Those forks are really unusual. I'd be a bit wary of them tbh (assuming they're aluminium which they appear to be). Most early 90s ali frames had steel forks because ali can fail which is obviously catastrophic on a fork. And after 25-30 years of metal fatigue... The bike itself looks nice...

    Can we get [wheels] from Brighton to [edit: Mayhem] ?

    Re: That's the spirit! I'm hoping it won't take up too much of anyone's time - ie going that way anyway - and I can drop off with someone fairly local.
