    Raleigh Ozark - Stroud

    Re: The plastic Exage cantis and rear U-brake (urgh) take me straight back to my Mirage :) Hopefully it's the picture but it does look like the top tube slopes down and the forks have a bit more rake that they started off with... Needs thumbies back on it too :wink: Definitely a classic...

    Roox bendy bars, Salsa stem [SOLD]

    First sale post so let me know if I've got anything wrong :shock: Following the Kona rebuild I have these hardly used steering components available, bought directly from Ison Distribution in 1999. ROOX Freeride FPS Riser Bars - Like hens' teeth these are, only made for a couple of years...

    Odd Interview - re Jimmy Saville

    Re: Jimmy Saville, proving that hiding in plain sight works. A predatory paedophile who, in hindsight, looked and behaved just like a predatory paedophile.

    Timed out , missed out

    Re: Sniping just refers to bidding in the last few seconds in the hope other bidders won't have the chance to raise their bids. To be honest, apart from the 'adrenaline rush' it's fairly pointless and tends to lead to over-bidding when the competition urge kicks in. It's far better (imho) to...

    When you try to access a webpage the server is only allowed a certain amount of time to fulfil the request, after which point the browser gives up, hence the 'timed out' message. It's not something you can change in a phone browser - were you using the eBay app or regular internet? As to why it...

    Circlip for preload adjuster Marzocchi fork

    Re: Cheers Liam but I'll save you the trouble - local hardware store had some clips which will do for now, and I've managed to find the exact originals online (when they get them back in stock). Many thanks though 8)

    xt m 730 chainset

    Re: Xt shifters, xt rear mech, xt m 730 chainset xtr m900 hubs Hi there, by 'appear working as they should' do the shifters cycle up and down through the range properly and the indicators work - they shouldn't need to go on a bike to show this. Also, any chance you could post a pic of the...

    Circlip for preload adjuster Marzocchi fork

    Re: Re: So sorry Liam, I've been AFB (away from bike), didn't mean to be rude and not reply :? Unfortunately on top of everything else I can't find the micrometer :facepalm: but measuring across the centre seems to be 8mm, if I'm measuring it right? If you can still help I'd really...

    Circlip for preload adjuster Marzocchi fork

    The sunny weather really brings out the special in me :facepalm: While taking the top caps of a 2003 Marathon S I managed to ping one of the little circlips that sits between the preload adjuster and the cap. After a lot of time wasted and sunburn incurred I have to accept it's gone. Can...

    Technical/service manual 2003 Marzocchi Marathon S wanted

    Thanks for the replies, still not quite there though... The 2003 Marathon S changed from air to coil spring just to confuse things :? The sport.sbp.ru links are again for the air sprung Marathons, the MX Comp coil isn't a million miles off but still a different fork. I'll give wu Dave a try :)

    Technical/service manual 2003 Marzocchi Marathon S wanted

    I have spent literally hours on google trying to source one of these so I can better understand how my forks go together. The 'manual' available from the Marz. website is a basic user guide and they won't let out the proper one. There are tons of links on the web but mostly from the 00's and...
