My PACE RC-35 forks (I think the are XCS) have no rebound on them and are sunk so I assume the elastomers are shot. How long do the elastomers last from peoples experience? They don't seem to have lasted long in actual mileage since they were last rebuilt Any recommendations on where to get a...

As per the title it is 17". An old picture but it doesn't like too dissimilar (it has different tyres on) I have replacement decals somewhere.

Has anyone got a 30.8mm seatpost? They don't seem to be all that common.

Some of you may have wondered why I had dissapeared and why I was no longer a regular on rides.

There is a lecture at Sheffield University on the 15th Nov by Cy Turner from Cotic on current bike design. Cy will be talking about materials, geomety, effects of current legislation & and debunking some suspension myths. It is being held at the Mappin Building, Uni of Sheffield. There...

Had a bit of an accident on my bike yesterday, which has resulted in stripping a layer of skin off most of my shin, and being black n bruised all over. Had to visit Casualty last night to get my elbow x-rayed. I notice that a fair amount of people at trail centres wear body armour nowadays...

Apologies if this has already been posted as I haven't checked. Steve Peat is giving a talk at Sheffield Hallam University on the 23rd February. http://arum.lits.shu.ac.uk/NetCommunity ... x?pid=1544 I figured some people from here may be interested.

Ok quick story to bore you all. Love cycling on the road - normally just use my Mountain Biking. Back over 10 years ago picked myself up a cheap/old second hand raleigh for trying it on a proper road bike. Went out a couple of times and was great fun, decided I was going to use it to...

Work have told me my job is relocating there and I don't know too much about it. Where is good to live (that isn't going to get flooded) and is there any decent cycling to be had round there? As far as I can see it is all flat :?

I have had this from new and haven't used it in many years so now is the time to sell it. I was thinking about £45 o.n.o for it.

Right - I had to change my back wheel as my old rim was cracked. So swapped cassette onto a spare rim I had in the shed. The hub was running a bit rough so stripped it down, regreased and reassembly. Care was taken to ensure the parts went back in the right order. However, the bike wheel...

There isn't a thread and I see no point in asking about a BMX in a MTB bike thread so can a mod sticky this for the BMX forum? Basically I have this. It is a 98 Diamond Back Riptile. The yellow pedals are the only change and I have the OE pedals still. How much is it worth?

I was putting my new tyres on today and noticed my Mavic XC 517 is cracked from the spokes down. I have swapped on to a MavicD521 that I had in the shed for the moment, but it is a bit more meatier and heavier. What are peoples opinions on getting the XC517 welded up? I was thinking of...

Has anyone got a picture of them on a bike? I have a yellow bike and was wondering if they would look good, or should I go blue, red or black? Anyone good at photoshop who could let me see what they would look like?

Perhaps a really silly question but it is early Sunday Morning. What width would my tyres be in inches if it says 44/50? I currently have some WTB velociraptors on my bike of which they use their own measurement system. I am guessing 1.95? But really I have no idea. I have looked for a...

As per title I am looking for some tyres - I know nothing about them, i.e what tread to have, etc. All I know is mine are looking a bit bald. If I say what I want them for, I was wondering if someone could recommend me some and point me in the right direction? I do ride on the road -...

So what would people recommend for a bike computer at the moment? Don't really want to spend much more than £35 on one. I have cateye off road one on my other bike (thicker cable) which is quite good. Cateye still good? If so what model? Otherwise what other brands are good?

Plonked a new chain on this afternoon as the old one was really dirty. So replaced shimano one for a sram powerlink (xt 8 speed setup). Measured link for link and chopped out the extra, a few inches or so. Now the gears dont appear to work properly underload - before they were...
