Ride one then you'll see :wink:

I'm after a nice light wheelset if anybody has one for sale? Ideally hope/ringle/chris king/extralite/tune hubs with some decent lightweight rims. It would also help if they're black or red, but that's not majorly important..

Too expensive? How about £375 then? :wink:

Wanted, a set of decent cond XTR V's (with or without levers) PM me if you have any for sale :)

Red 18" Pace RC200 F8 Frame (disc only) for Sale Pictures of an almost complete project can be found here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2 ... 75567ddfcf I'm selling it because the ride is a little too harsh for me and I have serious back problems, so shouldn't really be riding a...

Ha! I read the topic and thought "I know someone who might want to know the answer to that too" - then I saw who posted the question.. :roll:

Cor! That green hub/caliper combo is rather nice. Me likey :twisted: Shame though' I'm having to file a couple mm off the rear disc tab on the frame to fit my Magura Marta SLs as the caliper body fouls the tab when you mount it on the frame. Either that or sort something out with spacers...

I'm tangibly close to completion and its looking good... http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2 ... 75567ddfcf

Ooooooh controversy... Let the Fat Chance geek-off begin! *rubs hands* Popcorn anyone? :lol:

I've not ridden the XCs but would imagine SLs to be better. SLs would look great on a grey or polished frame, XCs would look better on the grey frame then on the polished one IMO. You could also strip the forks, have them TF tuned and resprayed/decal'ed to suit* *if this is a proper resto...

I was always a big fan of Judy SLs BiTD before SIDs came along.. Never rode the XCs but remember the look well. What colour are your Fire Mtn/RTS? Got pics?

Typical sales technique - make you feel bad about what you've got so you buy something newer and shinier.. Load of ballix IMO. Your P7 might be old(ish) but its still a kickass ride, BiTD or not... :twisted:

Gorgeous! I regret selling my Aquafade now... :(

I don't *think* its a Tune.. Campag maybe?

I used to have a black P7 c1995. Still one of the nicest frames I've ever ridden. Light as hell for steel and really responsive, yet forgiving at the same time. If you're gonna replace the crankset/rings I always go for Middeburn RS series cranks and Middleburn rings. They're some of the...

LOL, I hadn't even read your post when I was writing my last reply! I think you might be on to something there about the SSPD being related to the kacky frame designs, though I don't think Roger Daltry can help. Y'know I actually thought he was Chesney Hawkes' REAL father for years. Dohhh...

Winner...! Thanks for the info guys! Is it just me or does nobody else like the new post-RC300 XC frames? I've been told they ride well, but as for looks I think they're proper fugly. Cheers for the washing advice too. I'm going to have a chat with my rogue pit and sort our...
