Shimano DX & Answer/Manitou wish list

[AK74]

I'm looking for the following components if anyone can help:

Shimano DX
U-II Brake (MT63)
Cantilever brake (BR-M650) ACQUIRED
Rapidfire levers (ST-MT07, two-finger, L&R) ACQUIRED
Freehub (FH-M650)
Cassette (CS-HG70, 7-speed, 12-2

I'm also interested in getting hold of a nice set of Manitou forks (1 1/4"). I'd prefer Manitou 2, but will also consider a '1', '3' or '4'. Am also amendable to any of these which require work to restore them to their former glory. ACQUIRED

An ATAC stem is the final item on the provisional list, again in 1 1/4".

I'll state the obvious by saying I'm looking for good condition items in the first instance (NOS would be nice too!).

Thanks

Alex

New item to add to the list:

DX front derailleur (braze-on type, suitable for an Alpinestars Cro-Mega)

I believe a 'modern' version is available (DX FD-M651), but to keep things 'authentic' I'm keen on an M650. I've a NOS band-on DX FD-M650 to trade if anyone's interested.

Thanks to all who have offered items so far. As a new member of the forum, it's always pleasing to find excellent, reliable and friendly sellers: I heartily recommend STANDISH, totter and hurin76 as people to buy with confidence from.

Hi Staf

Yes, it's a 31.8 diameter. It's brand new in the packet with instructions etc, and completely immaculate. If we exchange addresses via PM I'll get it into the post to you on Monday morning.

Cheers
