Re: 96 frame would have a 1" headtube. 99 onwards ha a rear disc mount. My 99 P7 was repaired and resprayed by orange and had those decals fitted which were then the current ones, this was in 2002ish

Sorry, only saw the 1st picture and line of text when I looked this morning, it was early, I must have still been asleep

Pace did update frames and offered to add an F8 disc mount to my F6

Frame no. should start F* (6/7/8). Looks like an F6 that's had an Fi disc mount added. F8's had triple butted top and down tubes and butted head tube and bottom bracket shell and seat stay disc mount and canti mounts. F7's had double butted top and down tubes, can't remember what the bb shell...

I test rode one in '95 borrowed from evolution imports, it was yellow with black decals and preproduction pace rc35 mxcd forks.

Re: I had an f5 from new, down tube decals were pace racing (pace in white & racing in red) fitted on the non milled part of the downtube right behind the head tube. Seat tube decals were the same style but I think they were smaller and fitted at the very top of the seat tube.

Re: You're missing these

Re: I don't have a bb out of a bike to look at it, but if the sleeve is 48mm, the raised section of the axle should be 48mm bearings are 7mm each which adds up to the 62mm total width you have so it should be ok. Are you fitting the bb assembled as per the picture of the red one? This is how...

Re: Totally agree with Konsta, without the sleeve you will wreck the bearings. My spare sleeve measures 48.00mm. Bearing spacing / sleeve width is the same on my 68mm & 73mm hope bb's, the extra width for the 73mm version is 2.5mm additional width in each of the cups.

Re: I think all 1 inch head tubes have a pair of vertical ribs running the length of the tube that the top tube and downtube are welded to, 1 1/8 head tubes don't have this, they're just circular in cross section

Re: Seat post diameter should be 29.4mm not 28.4mm

Are you sure its a ti glide, never seen one with two different sized bearings.

Re: Looks like an F4 to me, that's the seat clamp collar I was thinking of that is squarer in the pinch bolt area.

Re: Could even be an F5 with F4 decals. It looks exactly the same as my early F5 (f518017) that one had the brake cable stops on the right hand side of the top tube, my later F5 had the brake cable on the left hand side of the top tube, the later (larger) brake mounts/posts & more seat stay...

I've freed seized alloy nipples easily using the flame from one of those 'turbo' type lighters. Bit of heat directly o.n the nipple and they come undone

Are you sure its an RC35, I thought all RC35's had replacable steerers. Can you post a picture?

Ah, the mini is a 1972 1380cc replica Cooper S & was my toy before mountain biking came along in '94. I've owned it since 1984 & learnt to drive in it. Modified it from a harvest gold 998 in the 80's, stripped to bare metal & respayed in 91 & not had a great deal of use since 2004. Still taxed...

Steerer clamp height is 35mm. The only difference I noticed between the pictured stem (100mm) & my old 120 & 135mm versions is that there is more material in the clamp area immediatly behind the bars - comparemy pic with your google image & you'll see what I mean.
