A little progess this week. got hold of some nice X-lite bars and a red coloured S works stem. found the original wheels at my parents house, Exage hubs and spesh rims, not sure if these will last long, rims look a little on the thin side. Have ordered a load of new Acera bits to get it...

I love the look of old cannondales, but I have never had one because I have never quite been able to trust the sticky out rear dropouts. My modern ride is an f700 however.

judging by the groupset I would say 88-89, but of course that may not be original. J

Cotic, Santa Cruz.

Only cool when fitted with the Girvin forks.

loving that front wheel, I wonder is any wheelbuilders still offer that as an option?

No idea, bought it in Halfords 15 years ago, but its a great stand; I have a park stand somwhere, but I never use it.

Realised that this is in the wrong place, Apologies

Evening, I have a couple of shiny modern roadbikes, I love then to death but can't leave them anywhere. So I am rebuilding my old rockhopper, which has been in bits since about 1995, predictably some of the bits have walked so I am looking for replacements. I would prefer if bits were...

Evening, I was pointed to this forum after putting out a request for some old 7 speed bits on another forum. I think I have looked at every post on the Readers ride section - I am hooked. I have an old Spesh Rockhopper, about 1990 I think, that I am trying to restore into a usable bike. I...
