    IMHO - Gentlemen, call it as it is. Seven weeks and no product and no refund is THEFT! Brazen, bare knuckles, in your face theft! The aftermarket business is primarily based on gentlemens trust amongst abiding members. Folks that take advantage of this trust, especially repeatedly, warrant...

    Decals

    MayI enlist the help of the more senior members herein? Based on some of the threads, it seems like there might be folks that replicate decals for forks. I've got a particular decal that I'd like replicated, that is if it's reasonable to do. I've been searching on-line for about a year. Not...

    Five steps of RetroBiking...(so far)

    31. You justified a new build based on the reasoning that you wanted a second bike to ride when No. 1 was down for maintenance, but No. 2 is now too nice to ride (can't have the XT bits getting dirty or worn). 32. You started collecting spare bits on the premise/hallucination that they'd...

    Repainting magnesium lowers.

    Being that I live in Michigan and do a modest amount of winter riding (winter snow, slop and snow/deicing salt on the roadways), I'wonder if ZnCRomate is the better way to go...

    Repainting magnesium lowers.

    A couple of questions for membrs that have repainted suspension forks, specifically those that had magnesium lowers. Mine is a Rockshox Judy XC. It is completely disassembled, is now chemically stripped, and fully cleaned. Bare magnesium is modestly reactive and oxidizes easlly. I have...

    A question for those that have repainted suspension forks

    Thank you for the replies. I really appreciate it. As is, I've completely disassembled the fork. The lower is just a shell with all of its internals removed. I'm pretty much set on a chemical strip, as I'm rahter wary of entrusting it to a soda or dry ice blster who has no idea how hard it...

    Rockshock Judy XC cartridge damper questions.

    A couple more questions for the RockShox gurus herein. I’ve disassembled and cleaned my spare 1998 RS Judy XC 1 1/8 threadless fork. The fork internals were in pretty good condition (unexpectedly so). The uppers (stanchions) are immaculate – no scoring whatsoever. Same for the bushings. The...

    1998 Rockshox Judy XC spring color questions.

    May I enlist the help of the Rockshox gurus on a couple of spring color questions? I've started my rebuild of a spare 1998 Judy XC 1 1/8 threadless. It contained red springs. If memory serves, the colors correlate to the intended rider weight range. What range does red correlate to? What...

    Can someone help with info on this Schwinn MOAB?

    I did a bit more background research on the 1999 Moab 1... Model-wise, the Moab 1 Disc was the top of the model, irrespective of the type of frame, either aluminum or Chromoly (steel). The mix of components dictated the price. The top of the line component set (XT) topped out at $1,399 USD...

    Can someone help with info on this Schwinn MOAB?

    Based on the pics it is 1999 Gloss red/White Pearl Schwinn Moab 1 Aluminum 17 inch Disc. Based on the mix of middle of the line Deore LX componentts and some XT, it sold for $1,099 USD stateside. I can't speak to its worth on that side of the pond, but here stateside you might get 175 - 250 USD...
