I want a new helmet for offroad use. My S Works Prevail is great for summer and is feather light. But it does have a crap chin strap and sometimes I'd like a more sturdy peak than just a cycling cap? And possibly greater protection. Equally I don't want something with a super deep back, but...

Love my B17, Swift and Pro. Kind of want to try this before investing in buying a new one. After the C15, not 17.

Posting this here since the frame is a 98. But the parts are largely older. I have however made some modern concessions- Wide, if not that wide by modern standards bars and a shortish stem. Top tube is relatively long for me, but doesn't feel it. I also intend to make use of the Wide clearance...

Doesn't have to be Syncros, but that would fit with the build. Something Canadian would be good? Straddle hangers, nothing too fancy but Something more interesting than the shimano ones?

Tried to keep the title as simple as possible on this one. I've recently brought a 98/ Ahead /1 1/8/ firmly V Brake era bike. I've got cantis, I don't want to go into a V Brake debate. Where should I position the canti hanger? Other than a 1 1/8 hanger any recommendations of what I should...

Ideally 170, but could work with 175mm. Good condition, especially around the tapers, but obviously appreciate black especially may have some wear on crank arms.

97 Ti Flite £30 ono including postage? Haven't tried to remove white mark on top or paint on rails. Newish Brooks B17, didn't realised when brought at jumble the front rivet was indented. Has never got worse in 6 years of owning, but probably could be fixed £15 Inc postage? Battered...

Looking for a decent, but regular rider set of wheels. Would consider other hub options. Rims ideally 517, but would consider other options. Ceramic not essential, but prefered. I know postage won't be super cheap on these but willing to consider anything in UK. I can also travel within about...

Rider condition, so worn, even missing decals ok, just want them to work smoothly. Black ideally.

Ideally with hangers and cables. Would consider xtr 900 depending on the price.

This was dug out by my Dad for my partner to use on her Pace. We're both thinking of 'modernising' and going to 8 Speed and she already has an stx rc derailleur on there, am I right in thinking this a short cage model regardless?

Second is probably better due to it's wider range? Doesn't have to be perfect, just good working condition, not too scratched up.

Does anyone know whether I should use a specific crank extractor to remove these, I.e. a TA one?

Front and rear Skewers Chain ring bolts Potentially other bolts?

I can already see the evangelists coming "Have you considered letting the idea that Cantilevers are shite compared to V Brakes into your life"? To be honest I looked for threads I could ask these questions in, but couldn't find quite the right one. If there is if someone could just post the...

92- 97 considered. Ideally with bottom bracket and headset fitted, but obviously could source and sort that. Would consider complete or partial bikes, depending on specs and locations. I'm in West Sussex, but get free rail travel so could pick up pretty much anywhere in a 100 miles radius.

My gateway back into retro mountainbikes after being on road and track bikes mostly for 20 years. Unfortunately I need to move it on after I've acquired another project. It needs a respray or a very careful touch up and it also has some slightly unusual sizes for stem, seatpost (not that...

First of all if this has been covered time and time again, just put the links to the right threads or I can even delete this. The reason I'm posting this up is I'm seriously thinking of hunting down an Explosif or possibly Kilauea. My gateway back into Retro Mountain Bikes has been a '89 Fisher...

As above, to replace one that is sadly beyond further safe use. Would also consider a pair of rims. If used, would like to see a straight edge picture of the rims to make sure plenty of wear left.

To run with Mafac Cantilevers. Ideally with hoods in good condition too. Was looking for Universal, but not really turning anything up.
