    Do Avid v-brake pads work on.....

    Thanks everyone. After spending a little time adjusting cables, tension, re-aligning pads and tweaking the SD7's.... I'm gonna keep the Avid Mags on as they feel great. XT's can go on my Pantera build.

    Middleburn cranks / bb width q?

    Cheers team. 68x113 seems to be right. Have ordered a UN55. I only have "standard" crank bolts though, not the Middleburn Self Extracting ones. I will order a set but I'll just have to run them with no covers on until my Middleburn ones rock up. Spotted that the middle ring is a Pace - long...

    Middleburn cranks / bb width q?

    Will be removing an LX chainset and Octalink BB and fitting an old Middleburn Triple (square taper) which I think is RS7 - can't see any identifying stamp. Just curious - BB is going in a 2001 Zaskar Race which iirc is 68mm (well in my mind, generally 68 but could be 73mm?) and last time I...

    Do Avid v-brake pads work on.....

    Shimano vbrakes? I can't see why they wouldn't, but also they might have slightly different fitment and I'm second guessing myself. (Got some Avid Magnesium brakes and some XT so was going to fit the pads from the Avid.....?) Levers are SD7's - prefer the look of XT v's but if it's much of a...

    M952 XTR Rear mech

    Used condition, fully functional. Has green/gold KCNC jockey wheels in. Just tried to do an eBay ad but it still thinks I'm in UK (I moved to Oz) and eBay was confused despite my postal address showing as Oz and having numerous items bought since moving here a few years ago. I am going to be...

    CNC Modern Stem Hunt

    Lovely stems those Hopes. I've just sold a 70mm DH in gunsmoke only 'cos I got a Straitline stem for half price. The Hope is probs 100g lighter but just as solid.

    handlebar grips for non-suspension bike

    Oury grips. Really thick soft rubber and uber comfy for all size hands. I had a pair in black on my Pace, and now have some Orange (non lock on) on my hardtail, and the missus managed to find some pink lock ons on the bay. Really, really comfy.

    GT Tequesta and Zaskar

    Can anyone confirm the age of the Tequesta? I think it's a 95/96 not a 98 as someone mentioned. Got some forks for it which are the curved cromo GT ones in yellow but they make the bike feel really low at the front. the original forks were rock shox indy s (63mm or something travel) would...

    GT Tequesta frame and forks, 2 hours on e-bay germany

    I've got a Tequesta that I want to build up. Reckon it's a 93 ish (there was a yellow and a blue one out at the same time). Got some of those forks too (in a slightly yellower yellow) but it kinda feels really low at the front - top tube is level though, so maybe it feels a bit weird with bog...
