    For Sale 2001 Santa Cruz Juliana Cushtail (hardtail) frame

    Wife and daughter have now both switched to 29ers so this quite old but still rather lovely thing is surplus to requirements. Santa Cruz Juliana women's hardtail frame, originally sold as a "Cushtail" because it came with a suspension seatpost (long gone from this one...). 17in frame...

    Tiny 1999 Kona Explosif

    Bought this as a frame and fork, resprayed, new decals, built up as a whizzy kids' bike - it's a 14in frame. Been through two children and now surplus. A bit of a mixed build, it was done as a rider (and has been ridden a fair bit). The Avid brakes (Single Digit Ti and Speed Dial Ti) and XT M750...

    For Sale MBUK magazines, from 1990 onwards

    This little lot (plus all the others you can't see) have moved house with me quite a few times and have spent most of that time in various lofts: I have decided that I need the space more than I need the magazines, but I'm not in a particular hurry so am happy to shift individual issues. As...

    Karma: Cannondale SM700 frameset

    This owes me nothing and is also very slightly broken, so it's free to whoever wants it - just cover the postage or make some arrangement to get hold of it. IMG_4861 by Mike Davis, on Flickr It's a 20in 1991 Cannondale SM700 "Green Chameleon", black with green splatter. Matching Ritchey fork...

    1998 Santa Cruz Heckler frame, L

    Someone buy this before I change my mind... 1998 Heckler frame, bought new by me in 1998 and ridden lots since then. So it's not exactly immaculate. Various scuffs, bits of missing paint, and a nice little dent in the top tube from where another bike fell against it sometime around the turn of...

    1995 Kona Kilauea singlespeed frame - PRICE DROP

    Not 100% sure about selling this, but it's criminally underused, having not turned a wheel since SSUK2013 :/ IMG_0170 by Mike Davis, on Flickr It's a 1995 Kilauea which I bought in about 1998 with a broken dropout (as was their tendency). Argos Cycles in Bristol chopped off the dropouts...

    1991 Cannondale SM700 "Green Chameleon", 20in

    I've had this a few years, but it's mainly gathering cobwebs which seems a shame. I got it in a fairly sorry state and have gradually tidied it up. It's by no means perfect, but it's pretty original. First, the bad news. At some point before I got it, one of the rivnut bottle bosses on the seat...

    Various jerseys, shorts, DH pants, DVDs

    Mostly only just post-1998, but that's the line, so here it is. Exciting simple pricing structure -- if it's a pair of shorts it's £10 inc UK post, if it's anything else it's £15 inc UK post, by bank transfer please. Measured sizes are approximate and as a guide only :) Voler RockShox jersey...

    New retro-tinged ebook

    This is a blatant plug, but I've sought permission 8) I've compiled all the articles I wrote for Privateer magazine into a handy Kindle-flavoured ebook. It's 14 articles (which are now chapters) and apparently 146 pages (obviously depends a bit on your exact device/font size/phase of moon)...

    Blatant begging

    Afternoon all, On Friday morning I'm going to roll off a ferry in St Malo and attempt, in the company of one other rider (plus a couple of others intermittently) to ride 480km in one hit. On the road -- I'm not completely bonkers. We're aiming to trace out the shape of a REALLY BIG ermine spot...

    That gold/bronze Kilauea fork colour

    I really should pull my finger out and put my 1995 Kilauea back together. It most recently had RC31s on it, which I moved on. I have P2s to go on for enhance originality, but they're yellow. The lazy option would be to do the forks black or white, but if I'm going to the trouble of painting them...

    Old = cheap

    I'm sure this isn't news to anyone, but I've just been gathering a few bits to get a bike into a ridable state for OWMTBC and was struck by the very affordable nature of stuff that most people don't want :) Shimano 122mm square taper BBs - £7.99. Ritchey brake pads for cantis - £3/pr. Running...

    Awesome old MTB shots

    Just stumbled upon the flickr account of Peter Blake, who covered loads of MTB races in the late 80s and early 90s for MBUK. He's got a bunch of his old stuff on there, including some real classics :) http://www.flickr.com/photos/shashin168 ... 982899904/

    1991 Cannondale SM700 - ridden at OWMTBC

    Just snagged this on ebay - bit of a flyer, but apart from the mudguards it looks largely unmolested. Main thing is, it's black with lime splatter :) Pic from ad: Updates when I've actually got my hands on it :)
