Sure they are Formula hubs

Bit of a question and small update.. Both wheels show alot of wobble from the hubs, my lbs says they are probably sealed. Could it be anything just needs tightening or would it 100% be bearings?? I have fitted new grips and front brake with rear Deore XT to be fitted. Front brake is a...

Any value in these? What model are they as well :) Thanks

Thanks for the knowledge, if I can I want to keep cost down. I may just tidy her up, new brakes and grips. See how it rides. The RL working must be a good sign right? Or could the suspension still be knackered?

brakes together and bled? cheers

So they were wealthy and it was their sons, the guy even tried his best to take less money! Both remote lockouts work which is better than my new bike 😆 Comes with hope brakes not attached but I may just get some ready made and bolt them on. #winning

Great news. I'm just hoping the suspension isn't shot

It's an older lady in a very posh area! I think its kosher ;)

Buying this today for £40, no idea on year or if its all original. How easy will this be for a novice to bring back to life? It's sold as for renovation or parts so no idea on condition yet, I believe it was their sons and has been stored a long time. Thoughts?

Trail king pic please?

Just bought this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cannondale-Je ... SwfRdZLAM9 Just wondered if its decent VFM or did I get carried away!! Not sure now if I should have went modern HT or this :facepalm:

Re: The bike is up for sale, will be on eBay in a few days

As per the title, comes with Rockshox Totem forks I would change the shock as well if possible to something more modern.... Or is it a terrible idea? The spec of the bike is amazing its just the frame is putting me off as I am not a hardcore racer.. I also weigh 16.5 stone :shock:

Re: Another fantastic Mystery Box......£12 posted....... Do I fancy it, however my bike is post '98 hhmmmm. I'd jump at one with a frame :)

I didn't but will do that thanks :) For reference which bit is that?? Sorry if that sounds silly

Re: Re: If I ever win a spare frame (which I'm after!) I will sort you out :) Treated mine to some new bits, not all were Retro however! Bar End Caps, Seatpost, Post Clamp, XT Hub, Tires and Sram Guide RSC + Elixir R brakes. And a few stickers and paint touch up....

Re: So I tried to lower a stanchion, chipped a load of paint, dented the stanchion, lost a bolt and struggled to get it lined back up. I got the stanchion moving but the wrong way. Couldn't get it out. The stem is on very snug so I am just giving up.

The half clamp section is what stops it. Otherwise it would go through

So I will have to buy a bleed kit as well? (Avid Elixir R)

Easy way to remove upper suspension? Or remove headset? The old lever fitted through the gap, new one doesn't and things like this annoy me so it has to be right, trouble is I'm very much a novice!! Thanks
