My 86 MF men's Courier had cow horns "out of the box".... Lovely thread though.

Re: Various QR's, seat binder bolt/clamps, Ritchey grips, I have PM'd you back - but it's stuck in my outbox for some reason.

Re: Various QR's, seat binder bolt/clamps, Ritchey grips, Do you still have the Deore DX QRs? Would like to take them if still available. Should I pm you?

Lovely Ridgeback! And thanks for the scan of the black one. You don't happen to have any info about the original spec of these do you? I admit that I haven't looked very hard as I have only just rescued this black Ridgeback from the leaves and bushes. I'm unsure why there doesn't seem to be...

Lovely! I have a similar one to do soon that has been neglected... it doesn't have those "bi-plane" forks (which may mean it is a slightly later incarnation) and has a Shimano 200GS triple on it in place of the original, but in other respects, it's very similar. It has the full Red S front and...
