A couple projects for this spring: DEAN Duke (hiding behind the Brodie) + Colonel with a seized seat-post

Update: CK has offered to sell me a bottom cup & bearing for $75 USD. They don't make NoThreadSet in the pewter colour any more, so silver would be the closest match. I'll likely just purchase a complete, second-hand NoThreadSet locally, as I see them on FB marketplace for around $120 CAD ($85...

I heard back from the folks at Chris King. Here is their reply: "We do not sell our headset bearings separately since the fitment of the bearing in the cup is something we like to control. That being said once a bearing has been removed from a cup and that removal was not done by us, we can no...

Hi all - I recently purchased a Dean Colonel and it had a 1 1/8" Chris King NoThreadSet headset installed. When I removed the headset for servicing I was surprised to find that the lower cup was missing its bearing entirely. My question is: do you know if replacement bearings are available for...

lots of great options. thanks for sharing @dirttorpedo

@bikeworkshop if you're willing to ship to Canada i'd be interested in a pair or two of 32h please. cheers

great suggestion too, thank you. i'll reach out to some LBS's here in town to see if they have anything tucked away

@Tootyred i knew somebody would have great intel like this - thank you! i'll try to hunt down a pair or two of those here in Canada. they look the part for a "vintage" wheel build 👍

thanks for your reply @bikeworkshop ! unfortunately i do not remember - i was born in 1990 :) - but i respect that kind of ingenuity. i guess you're right about that, otherwise folks like Mavic would still be manufacturing these things. i am hopeful though.. i think many people would have said...

thanks for the suggestion @CrossFred1978 ! i'll look into Exal and search for suppliers here in NA - price seems very reasonable. cheers

Hello all - I have a number of XTR M950 hubs I'd like to build up and I'd love some period correct Mavic rims (217, 517, 717) but I've had a hard time sourcing any. Does anyone know of a good source for 90's mtb 26" rims in North America? Alternatively, are there any new rims on the market...

thanks! pretty excited about it. came with some nice stuff too; Judy XC and a P2 fork, Topline crank, Pulstar hubs with Mavic 231 rims, XTR m950 RD and XT m739 FD. also picked up an XTR m950 wheel-set with it and a mint KORE stem. will need to source a full cockpit or snag it off another bike of...

got it home last night - it's 19"

wild - took me about ten minutes to finally see it but i see it now 😄 very cool

what exactly is a ribbed down tube?

that's great to hear. 18" is a hair small for me

sounds good, thanks! pick-up got pushed back to this evening - seller said it's 18" but will confirm that once in my possession

thanks for your input @murphy79 ! will take a close look at the head tube and welds. very excited for my first steel Kona since my '98 Lava Dome was stolen as a teenager. agreed those modern P2's won't work out. i have a few sets of period correct P2's that i'm hoping will fit. there is also a...

that's awesome, thanks! and yes, that'll be a challenge indeed!
