Thanks im now bidding on one so lets see how that goes. Ill get back atcha in a few days is if this doesnt work out!

Hi, im not really keen on the adjustable one as it probably adds weight and is superfluos in this project. Thank you for the offer anyway! The Cinelli is a bit too pricey and a tad long as well. I was looking at some (Philippe) Milremo stems and one of those would fit perfectly. Will check...

I have a touring bike built on a 40s/50s french touring frame and it is need of a new stem. I wish to use modern Nitto bars so bar clamp should be 25,4. The quill can be 22,0 or 22,2 i can sand it down if needed. Reach should be 75-90mm. The era does not need te correct but i would not want to...

I hope the seller donates $10k to charlies medical expenses :roll:

Oufff i bought one of these on my trip to california from a bike swap for about $50. I fixed it up and rode it for the trip and sold it to a friend of a friend for $100 i think =) It really is the promised land of 2nd hand bikes over there!

Yes the furious fred is a great fast rolling tire! Too bad its only available in the 50mm version anymore. I have some of 2,2"s and 2,4"s and am really worried what to do after they wear out

the pictures are in a tiny size and cannot really see anything

Im looking for a steel road frame or bike, or actually two. It/they should have mudguard eyelets and tire clearance for minimun 28mm tires with mudguards, so an audax, sport touring, randonneuring etc style. Caliper or cantilever brakes both are fine. Condition can be anything but i prefer...

Looking for a set (front+rear) of good nice v-brakes, preferably something special to them, color or design or that little something you know ;) But should still be easy to adjust and in good working order. So no basic Shimanos, no basic Tektros etc. Not interested in Shimano XT/XTR dual pivots...

I think once the market starts to actually understand that a very big proportion of customers are not the size of an average man but shorter and smaller it can make a difference for 26" wheels. They just fit small people better even on road/touring/etc bikes the frame geometries would make much...

i have to say Wow thanks for all the offers and messages. i was really surprised =) But sadly i couldnt pick any of them (maybe 25 frames in total), seems im very picky :mrgreen: mostly it was because of the geo and colorss so still looking for a frame, size 19-20" or so, with a simple plain...

thanks for the tip! but need to add to my want list "a peaceful simple color scheme" as ive been offered many wilder fades and neon splashes as in that one hehheh =) after having owned many golden and shiny and metallic paint bikes i feel like having something soft and plain

Hi, i looked through the frames but unfortunately none of them really had that special something to make me really wanna buy it...

Im looking for a new frame and fork for a commuter/tourer project. Id like it to have a level-ish toptupe, square-ish geometry, as in not-too-long toptube, so a late 80s frame maybe? Really like the look of old Ritcheys and specialized stumpjumpers. the frame should atleast have fender...

Im planning a respray for my kona explosif frame and afterwards would need a set of decals. If anyone around has some 2004 Kona Explosif and/or True Temper Platinum OX -tubing decals let me know and ill buy it off you! Also just a vector image/something to print ones with would do..

I switched to a drop bar on my Rossin Montare and am currently running a quill adapter with an ahead stem but would like a quill stem for streamlined looks and (possible) lighter weight So am looking for a nice quality OS quill stem, 25,4 bar clamp. Removable faceplate is a bonus but not a...

I acquired a russian titanium copy of a 90s kona from a customer at our bike shop, but unfortunately the original titanium fork has been lost during years of storage. So i would need a replacement. Looking for a nice rigid fork with canti studs, preferably titanium or carbon but can consider...

I think the Klein Adept is a great example of this genre! A hybrid bike as an idea is actually super nice but too bad their reputation is totally destroyed by what the vast majority of them look like...

Re: Retro MTB Touring. Ohh glad to find this topic! I built up a old Rossin Montare as a touring ATB/MTB/road bike and its been real nice! ive went on a couple of overnight tours now and also used it as a daily commuter. at first with some old knobbly tires i found and nowadays with 2"...
