    Advise for powder coating in South Devon please

    Hi retro guru, I called them up today, very friendly but they are quoting me £125 to have the frame and fork powder coated in matt black, not sure what's going on, I mentioned that you had paid £75 but they brushed it off and since I started doubting my memory I didn't push it. Bit confused now!

    GT Zaskar Race 2001- xl frame

    GT Zaskar Race from 2001. recently had full service including both wheels trimmed so running real sweet. Absolute peach of a bike- just google the reviews for it and you'll see what I mean. I believe it had an original retail value somewhere in the region of £1700. Also, from what I've read...

    Local motion shoulder/frame bag

    Anyone remember these tasteful little pieces? I had the cross bar pad too but ended up using it on a surfboard bag strap and then loosing it! Anyway, if you're local and 80's neon does it for you this is going for free- buy me a bar of chocolate if you like, I'm in Bournemouth. It will need a...

    Dawes Ascent 1989 ish- knackered but only £10!

    Hi, this bike is really knackered but maybe someone can use it in a project. Its 21 inches and the components are pretty shot but perhaps the frame is salvageable and a few other bits- tyres are relatively new and unused and pedals (if their not seized on) are pretty sweet. I got this for my...

    Rock Shox Sid- spares or repair

    These have just come off a GT Zaskar race 92. They don't seem to hold the air. P.m me if you'd like some pics. The actual bike appears to have had very light use with all the components still going strong so I'm surprised that the forks have gone but it does make me think it could be...

    How do you tell if a fork is carbon?

    Hi guys, just got a pair of Exotic carbon forks off of ebay, only thing is I'm wondering if they are actually the aluminum version. They seem fairly heavy and are a kind of matt black as opposed to the 'meshed' appearance that I associate with carbon forks. Any advise on how to tell the...

    When did muddy fox sell out?

    This is just something I've been wondering about, as a teenager in the late 80's and early 90's I seem to remember Muddy Fox being quite an enviable brand. Now I seem to see them for sale in Argos and Sports Direct and they look really shit. Did they sell out somewhere along the way?
