I was just browsing the FB marketplace to see if there is anything retro around and found this - can't ID it personally but does anybody out there have any idea what's under the rattle can paint? Seems to be some Deore LX on there so don't think it's a BSO ... :)...

Thanks kermit, are Reynolds sounds good! - Not sure if these have enough thread on the top as my head tube is only about 14cm not including cups, (about 15.5 with them) If they were too long, but with enough thread I suppose I could pipe cutter the excess off.. :lol:

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a pair of cheap 1'' threaded forks with a steerer of about 170mm - I don't mind something ratty if they're reasonable quality like Reynolds 531.. They're for a pub bike, so nothing flash required! :lol: Have you got anything lurking in your shed?

I'm in Devon, would be very interested, PM on the way! :D

One number please! Would be a great retro commuter for somebody riding this daily :D

Received the Deore LX FC-M550 175mm drive side crank arm this morning - exactly what I was after - top bloke for sending it out as a Karma + postage :D 8)
