restomod

Picked up these yesterday for mega cheap. Think i’ll make the Rockhopper into a gravel and do a retro build on the Hard Rock. Please show me andy inspo pics of similar bikes!!

Hi everyone, I'm selling my heavily upgraded vintage Dawes Ambassador. I built this as a summer project a few years back - it was a full conversion to 700c wheels/STI shifters/dual pivot brakes from the original setup (see final pic for the bike as I originally bought it in 2019). The only parts...

In a shameless bid to draw attention to myself, here's my Giant. Based on where its pivots are I think it's a 2002 frame. I did ask my LBS who sell Giant to look up the serial number but it doesn't seem to be in the current serial number database. I only did half a job on this. I bought it...

Hey everyone, First things first. If there's someone here already who offers all of the above and is the forum go-to, apologies, I don’t want to tread on toes and will not pursue this. However, if not, I wanted to properly introduce myself and tell you what I can offer. I'm Gavin, I run/am...

I weighed my Peugeot Perthus chromed, Reynolds 753 fork and at 646 grams, I think that's pretty light for steel. I've seen Columbus SL forks that are lighter. I'm currently planning to build this Peugeot into a super lightweight restomod and was wondering how much weight I could lose by...
