Re: interested in judys too, 2nd in line

interested in judys, are they still elastomer inside? and is that a steel steerer? suppose it must be if its threaded. are the stanchions in good nick?

interested kilauea frame pending pics/postage

As in the title, I've always wanted one and its time to scratch that itch. Not too bothered about condition (within reason) as I don't mind re-spraying if needs be. I only want a 19" Kona Kilauea, white (95ish) frame or bike, nothing similar or nearly the same. Money waiting for the right...

Come on, keep it retro!! Panaracer spike 1.9, got a front one ready for the snow.

Well it not alloy for sure. There must be some paint chips on it? If there are signs of rust, check bb and dropouts, then its not ti.

Interested in the fsx, but they dont have a removable/bolt in steerer do they? might still fancy them though. phil

Bigger 20" or more!!

Hang on for a dog collar and get on a lathe if you can, a turned ferrule with location into the dog collar. I think this is the best/neatest way but then I would as it mine I suppose! http://www.retrobike.co.uk/gallery2/mai ... emId=52100

no shim, just good old steel!!

cheers fellas, think I should just about be ok. I was waiting for people to say get a bigger bike, but those 20 inch plus konas start to look a bit special, and I couldn't be riding about on something I didn't like te look of! Yes I'm a bit of a retro tart, 250 miles round the south of...

After bending my original seapost on my 95 kilauea I have now purchased a Ti affair off ebay, not too bad but it's come up a little shorter than I was expecting. I'm not sure how the seller can measure 400mm when the most I can see is around 370-80 at a push!! The seatpost doesn't have a...

you could get a Schlumpf!! internally geared crank!! google it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_9CRMgD ... _embedded#!

yep, unfortunately.

I know they come up lots in the for sale section but I'm usually too slow. willng to pay 25-30 odd or maybe more for a really nice one, I would actually prefer alps or transalp if possible. no rips or tears or bent rails, normal light scuffing on rear is fine. I'm only after the simple...

Ha yeah, I;m a model/patern-maker so I use one most weeks! I'm always doing a bit of making, modding and resto, but when I'm spending 70-100 quid I'd rather I was just right out of the box. Might try that if nothing else turns up(excuse the pun)

I've been in touch with that eBay one, the look quite nice and retroish, he shifts a little on the price too. Don't want polished though, might see if they can do a natural one, or maybe fine sand blast one of the polished ones!!

Yep should run fine, I think the 952s had a little extra width on the chainring washers to allow for the greater range on the rear for 9 speed.

Been looking about for a while now for a natural satin (not polished) in something long 380-400 length. Would prefer mid 90s but would go for modern if it didn't shout about it too much! Tricky to find 27.0s these days all seem to be black nasty ones! Though I saw a dean one not long...

Update- I just fitted the bb and cranks, my cranks are 950(right arm) and 951(left arm) miss-sold to me on ebay arghh, but never mind, i think thet are the same dims as the 952. just fitted with an xtr 952 bb 116, it gives you a 50mm chainline which seems ok, and around 10 mm crank clearance...
