Shogun Metro-1 Nice clean Shogun Metro ripe for restmod in case anyone is feeling inspired by @HourGlass's lovely build. Way to big for me otherwise I'd have been tempted.

Bit of a long shot but putting this up in case someone has an Ariake Jaguar saddle in decent condition lying around? It's the one original part I have missing from my '84 Saracen.

I've wanted an early atb for a long time now and have been keeping an eye out for a Saracen, FW Evans or S&G of some sort for a few years now. I got halfway there with my S&G Muddy City but the itch wasn't scratched. Enter my latest pickup, a 1984 Saracen. Sold as a Sherpa (according to the...

Edit: updating this ad as I've stopped presuming and actually started measuring things. I'm restoring a Raleigh Lizard for someone (sentimental value) and unfortunately the wheels are not even close to being salvagable, I thought it would be as easy as finding a 100 130 alloys wheelset and...

As per the title really. Came off my 'cracking' Al-Mega, it's 130mm zero rise. I'm transferring all the parts from it to a different frame with a 1 1/8" steerer so need something suitable for that. Doesn't need to be a Ringle just something from the same period in Polished or 3DV (black at a...

Hi all, I picked up this lovely clean Ascent locally a little while back and haven't done a great deal with it. Some of you may remember the eBay advert as it is in amazing condition and very original, however the original owner has very carefully added grease ports to the pedals, bb and hubs...

Ok, so story is, I picked this up a couple years back completely original and bloody clean and ashamed to say I pinched the groupset for something else, didn't know better then. Anyway as the frame was pretty immaculate but way too small for me I gave it to my sister to build back up and have a...

Bought another frame recently so have a box lying around and I'm not going to do anything with this frame since it's too small for me. The paintwork is scruffy but it's solid and would be an ideal candidate for a repaint project for a smaller rider. Triple butted True Temper so I'd have...

Hi all, Just putting together my Cromega again. I have pretty much full MC32 going on it but a bit stuck with a contemporary chainset. I have a decent set of Impel crank arms so either need a set of decent chainrings for that (well outer and middle, so 5x94bcd hidden bolt type), or a full MC32...

Hi all, As per the title, have a nice set of Manitou 2 forks for sale, equipped with a threadless 1 1/4" steerer I bought these to put on my Al Mega build but going to keep it rigid now. As you can see in the pics it's in really nice condition. Elastomers were reportedly replaced by a...

Just putting this out there on the off chance someone has something suitable. I'm after a 1 1/4 threadless headset for my Al-Mega for a price that isn't silly (everything I've found so far has been upwards of £300). Not too bothered what brand but ideally needs to be period correct (so not the...

My 18" Inbred frame is on ebay http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481 ... olid=11111

Looking for a set of Salsa Cromotos to go on my newly acquired alacarte. Preferably in excellent condition but can potentially work with anything. Bike currently has a mint set of RC31's on which I could arrange a trade on, unfortunately I'm too much of a fatty to ride them.

I bought these a few months back off Tomianson to fit on my Al-Mega but I've decided I want to keep it original as possible and reuse the XTR900/Ringle hub combo currently on it. As I can't imagine me building anything else worthy of a wheelset this nice any time soon I'm looking to move them...

Just completed this one so will be a rather short thread but thought I'd share nonetheless. I picked this one up as a frame and fork a few months back from these pages and had it delivered from it's original country of origin. I have no particular personal experience of these, however, when I...

So it's about time I started a thread on this little project as I think it has potential to come out rather special (to me at least). This is my uncles former race bike, I remember going to the odd race with my nan when I was kid to watch him and after giving me his Alpinestars jacket one...

Anyone know what on earth this is: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124112023404 Must confess I thought at first glance someone had advertised a Pace not knowing what it was and nearly wet myself with bargain excitment, but on close inspection it definately is not anything of the sort. However...

This has just come up on our favourite auction site. Rather diappointingly it is too big for me (22in seattube 23in toptube c-c) so I won't be partaking in the bids but needs to be bought by someone on here I think. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133353286705

Just dismantling some wheels equiped with these spokes to rebuild them with some conventional spokes so I don't die. Question is, is there anyone out there with a wall hanger that would like the ones that aren't broken as spares in case a rebal dust mite headbutts one of theres and breaks it...

Looking for Ritchey MegaBite tan wall if anyone has one to match the one I already have. Doesn't have to be mint/nos, but good enough to be presentable as they will be on a restored bike. Will also consider a pair if they are nice enough and the right price. Cheers
