XT post arrived and installed. Quite snug so ample grease applied.

Was hoping that this would stay under the radar, but not now. Don’t forget these have Bullseye hubs too 👍

I’ve got the Suntour post. Devoid of logos, but in decent condition. (Its the one on the right) £50?

I do actually, but they are fitted to my ‘spare wheels’ that I use whilst builds are under way. Perhaps I could free them up. Definitely got a single going spare however.

I didn’t do a build thread as it was more of a revival really. I got it with another bike, and I’d rather have turned it away had I had the chance to do so, as the busted hub and and stuck post made it more of a project than I’d have liked it to be. So I committed to making it as good as...

I’ve got a decent one if @raidan73 doesn’t sort you out.

This one is mine. Sadly owes me a chunk more than the asking price, but have pitched it comfortably below the larger £400 bikes that aren’t worth that for sure. I’m flexible on price within reason, but also happy to hold on to it as it’s my size. Had to source a new rear hub and freewheel, and...

@TreaderSteve not just me having issues with a USE post then! I have found in the past that post diameters vary by fractions of a millimetre, and even if they are marked as the correct size for a frame, it can actually be the difference between fitting or not. I had the same trouble with my now...

I'm no expert on Alpine Stars, but @qiqimaru are you sure that your Dads bike is actually an Alpine Stars? It doesn't have the oversized head tube/set as per the above picture, the cable routing on the top tube is different, and the rear drop outs differ also.

Aside from a couple, I must honestly say I'm seeing them for the first time! Not sure which way to vote yet so will study them a bit more.

They're a slightly unusual combo of Mavic / Specialized and I had considered splitting the hubs - but figured I'd leave them as built wheels as that way at least they could be put to use straight way if required. I've got an 8spd Sachs block available in addition (and possibly a 7spd in a few...

I have these listed; https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/mavic-dakar-specialized-wheelset.485050/

I have a single Factory DH 2.1F Can check it out this evening if of any interest? Edit: Found some pics on my phone:

Small update on this one. Firstly the forks. My main aim is to get the Rock Shox up and running so that the bike can remain true to how I bought it, so I was on the look out for 1” Mag 20/21 crown, and with the help of @boy"O"boy I was able to purchase a suitable solution. I say help - as I...

Iguana SE, 1997 👍

Quite possibly. They don't say triple butted on the decal, that's the only indicator for me.

I can confirm that these are 1” with those decals, so they are available.

They're not in use, so I'll have a look for them and let you know. @Yetichaser apologies for the interruption, GLWS

I wonder if they were a replacement kit offered back in the day, as I had a set on an old 550 I had. Still got em somewhere.

A simple solution would be to release that Hei Hei 😉
