There is more stuff on the way, i have just been busy with the Garmin mounts, they proved more popular than expected and I have now have 4 variants in order to satisfy the different needs.

For sale is an old set of Deore FC-MT60 cranks 170mm with 24tooth shimano ring and 36 & 46 tooth Middleburn rings in blue. Everything good working order. £30 inc UK shipping.

Deore DX RDM650 mech, the mech seems to be in good working order but to be honest it has been in my box of spares for years so is time to move it on. Usually wear and tear, scratches etc but the spring is good and tight and some life left still in the jockey wheels. I will take £8 inc uk postage.

I am glad you like the case studies on the 3trpd site, i cant take credit for all these as this is not my company, its just where i am lucky enough to have worked for the past 12 years. My company is raceware direct and is just a fun thing to try and make some bike parts for people that are...

Yes, that is the idea behind RepRap machines, unfortunately the quality of the parts is not great and the media used not very strong. But I am all for reprap machines as it show people the power of 3D printing. The big issue is cost, reprap $500 where as our EOS machines are about £750,000 but...

Yes, just this week, it is part of a funded project. I will PM you with some info but i dont really want to post much up here just yet.

Hi there, yes i work at 3T and have done sine we started. The internal lattice stem is on the way, i dont know what info you have on it but watch the 3T website for information as it will be on there as a case study in the next 6 months and all being well it will be on my track bike in...

:) no problem mate, I do hate posting sometimes and i take your point. But if i can help anyone with any projects or parts they need making then that is the aim here, not a get rich quick scheme, just trying to help out fellow cyclists who have cool ideas but no way of bringing them to life.

I am sorry if that was the way it read but at the same time i felt the previous comment was also pretty harsh about the product. The product i am offering is in the style of a ringle cage as i said at the beginning but not the same as a ringle cage, i am sorry if i misled anyone. It may sound...

Re: Custom Stem Caps They look simple enough, i would need to know the angle of the cap but if you wanted them in a glass filled nylon with a custom text then they would be pretty cheap. I cant say a price else i will get in trouble with the powers that be at retrobike but not a lot of money.

Re: Custom Stem Caps If you can send me a picture of the sort of thing you want i will see what i can do. I can also provide plastic ones and they will only be a few quid.

I fear you have n idea what 3D printing is :) If you want to ride around with an old coke can as a bottle cage then you crack on, its not for me though. These cages are made from Glass filled Nylon and knocking one up in your garage to the same quality and standard as one of these is not easy to...

I have emailed John the main man and if he wants me to do some retrobike ones then i will gladly do them.

Re: Custom Stem Caps I think you are missing the point. It is not about weight or strength it is the fact that these are custom made to have whatever logo you want. It seems a few people have already done this by having them engraved. I am not doing this to make me rich, i am an engineer who...

Custom Stem Caps Whilst not really retro i am just looking at starting to provide custom Titanium stem caps, any size and any text, so long as it will fit on the stem. Anyone interested? How much would people be happy to spend? I dont have exact costs yet but i think for a custom cap in...

Thumbie Mounts Hi, The material is strong and I can provide data sheets if required. I would be more than happy to produce a thumbie mount for someone to try but i would need a hand with the design as i think my old xt units are long gone. The beauty with my process is there is no limit on...

Hi, I have recently set up a new company to supply bike parts made using 3D printing technology, this has been my day job for the past 12 years and decided it was time to bring it to the bike world. My first few components are now ready for sale. The first part i designed was water bottle...

Looks amazing, brings back happy memories

frogskins yes, see latest picture :) i bought these from the USA in 1991 and they were from shade station so are genuine.

frogskins no problems, the pictures make them look worse than they are but i would rather that way than somebody not being happy with them after they receive them.
