    Wanted SRAM X9 What Jockey Wheels fit?

    Maybe throw up some pics. Showing number of tooth picks etc. I have a SRAM mech of sorts kicking about, it's NOS I think but been unsuccessful selling it. If the jockeys are useful, you are welcome to it for spares. PM me if interested & I'll root it out.

    Powdercoat - the poll

    Here is a couple examples of the work my local coaters have done for me. A fillet brazed custom Thorn MTB frame in anthracite grey. And a Cannondale CAAD4 road bike frame which was pretty doggy & corroded under the old, flaking paint. That was done in white & I had a vehicle spray shop spray...

    Installing a modern Shimano front mech

    Agree, they make no sense upon initial fiddling, but once setup they feel & work nicely. And if anything is not correct with the setup/cable routing you will have no joy (I would imagine). Plenty of YouTube vids for help (I watched a few)

    Powdercoat - the poll

    I actually share the sentiments of the OP. Powder can be awful & it is well suited for park gates benches. I would never PC a valuable frame I don't think, but I do have a fantastic powder coating business nearby. I used them a fair few times now & the finish is always fantastic.

    Help me build a bikepacking bike!

    Where are you based, Originsoundd? People can maybe help recommend prospective bikes/frames that are for sale. There is a nice Dawes on ebay in Leeds, 16" steel frame. Too far?

    Help me build a bikepacking bike!

    If you haven't built this yet I'll just chip in with some wisdom of my own. Old MTB's can be perfect for what you wish to use it for, where they can fall down is with rear heel clearance to panniers. Racier bikes from the 90's will typically have a shorter wheelbase & rear end than an 80's...

    Extreme component branding practices...

    I'm a bit late to the conversation, but me & my riding pals all get together & chat bikes. Were a bit old school in that we are all for the most part still rocking rim brakes on our road bikes. So one of my mates has been in the market for a new bike for what has to be the last 6 years. 6...

    Bargain at £140?

    I despise those Altus chainsets. Surprised it's not got a 1piece BMX crank being a Raleigh, maybe it is high-end after all.

    Raleigh losses.

    Raleigh is merely a marketing company & warehouse these days isn't it? The Nottingham factory shut years back. No doubt the share holders had a good year despite the news which the figures are a reflection of 2023 apparently, so 24 probably a bigger loss.

    2025 Time Warp build thread

    The Brahma was the first thing to get ditched from my 92 Apex. Too narrow between the controls. Good work, the frame/paint look flawless.

    For Sale Fulcrum Racing Zero Nite C17 wheelset. High end last of the rim brake era

    This has been a hard decision to make, but I'm parting with my beloved rim brake (aluminium) wheelset from my rim brake 'keeper' road bike. The carbon wheels will remain & these are up for sale. Regarded as perhaps the finest off-the-shelf aluminium road/climbing wheelset they are quite...
