so i just bought a Nickel P7, need a rigid fork ideally, would be good to get an F7, would aslo be good if it was ahead, threaded will be fine though. will also consider any 1" suspension fork that works. to fit a 19" frame so i think threaded would beed to be 165mm, ahead maybe 185mm

my costume is much cooler:-

it was on instagram, i didn't even notice princess leia, just saw gary fisher is dead! shame about the dog though

back to USE! i like USE, but a few years ago the rebadged to "Ultimate", i follow them on Facebook, and they're sharing posts about "we're back" and now displaying the original "U.S.E" logo, i think this is good because essentially "ultimate" was a new brand and kind of ignored their history...

i was never a massive fan of Marin bikes, for me in the late 80's and early 90's Muddy Fox was my thing, the small UK brand appealed, then when i discovered GA cycles in Southampton i felt that Mark the manager looked down on my Muddy Fox Alu Pro, they sold Kona, Marin, Proflex, Shogun, when i...

so for one of my projects, my 1991 Muddy Fox Alu pro, i wanted a set of SS5 levers as that's what i had on mine back in the day, so i've been looking for some, the prices are mental on them, especially if NOS or blue levers, SS7 levers which if memory serves were the more expensive model seem to...

ok, tough one, relevant to my shop. now before you answer please don't let this turn in to a "my local guy is a miserable git" type thread, i'm asking you guys because you have been riding and buying bikes etc for years and have seen the changes the internet has made, so i want genuine opinions...

Suntour AP2 chain, i bought this years ago from GA cycles in southampton, gary was just happy to get rid of some old stuff! it hasn't ever been fitted by me and as far as i know hasn't been cut down although it is shorter than a modern length chain but i assume that's becuase it would have been...

so back in 1990, my used Muddy fox seeker was stolen after i kind of modelled it on the 1991 Alu Pro with a repaint etc, although it was a basic paint job, 4 locks that bike had on it when it was stolen! anyway, My parents came to the rescue with insurance and i bought the 1991 Muddy Fox Alu...

so i got a new laptop, went to download itunes, which i've been using for years, essesntially i have downloaded Apple music, which is not the same. obvs these money grabbing barstewards want is on subscription services these days, annoying but i think i just have to accept it. so the question...

so i need suggestions before i go looking. basically i have a complete bike, i want to move the frame on, but i want to transfer all the parts over, been trying to think of something to go look for but i can't decide what. something appropriate to this spec:- XT 3x9 full groupset with V...

having a small clear out, prices include post, which will be recorded, which i think is now about £5 shimano Xt front mech, FD-M739 which makes it 8speed, 28.6mm top pull, pretty good condition, little bit of corrosion, could probably be polished to look better but i thinks is fully working...

ok, so years ago i had a Muddy fox Alu Pro, see pics, yes that my skinny self! think it was a 19", is it a 1990? 1991? either way if you have one that you are willing to let go, frameor bike that would be awesome, any condition considered as it's bound to get a repaint!

that I-ride, owners of Orro bikes are going pop, just as Bradley Wiggins got one! anyone know anything?

ok so a bunch of you knew either by reading it on here or my facebook that i was having cancer treatment, i thought i'd tell you a little about it because i think it's good to know what happens, maybe knowing a bit in the future will help in some way anyway, about 4 months ago, i peed blood...

so a while back you saw my retro Kila Honzo, my retro aluminium O, these are really ticking boxes for me, modern bikes that look retro, to me at the moment this is the way to go, you're gonna hate me for saying but the older stuff doesn't ride that well, especially on modern trails, they're not...

mineral or dot? i have the manual to do a bleed on a pair of brakes but it says "mountain cycle brake fluid only" but doesn't say what it is. any definite idea?

random story with this one, i have an other Buckshaver, i go down the pub with a bunch of guys who like bikes, they always buy and sell stuff between themselves, some of the guys are related family wise and they all have similar interests, now as much as they are in to bikes, it's mostly the UK...

so i've picked up a nice fat chance, but i'd prefer a different front end as it's old school stretched out! has a suspension fork with canti's but has a stem with a noodle, which is annoying so a rigid fork would make the stem ok or a replacement stem without a noodle and maybe a bit of rise...

zolatone paint, i thought no one knew what it was or if it could be found, is this the stuff? i read the description and it sounds like it is the stuff...
