    Alt bar opinions?

    Anyone tried out an 'alt bar' setup? I hate the name, but the idea of having a more on-the-hoods position for climbing seems like a good idea (obviously down to personal prefs) Just curious if anyone on here had tried them out. I've seen lots of marketing bs recently but never seen any in the wild

    Toddler seats

    Anyone on here had a toddler seat they'd recommend? I've spotted a few different ones that go over the top tube that don't look too awful but don't know where to start. Plus I'm pretty sure all the ones I've seen aren't going to play nicely with the exposed cabling along the frame

    Drilling out cable stops 🛠️

    I'm considering drilling out the cable stops on my Gary Fisher. The build was never going to be a proper restoration, although I have tried to keep the components era appropriate (ish). Has anyone had good / bad experiences with drilling out stops? any good reasons not to do it?

    Sorted 3x7 shifters

    Anyone got some 3x7 shifters knocking about? I'm looking to replace the 3x7 grip shifters currently on the bike - I'm keen to try out thumbshifters, but am open to anything! (not brifters - I've got an alright set of levers to stick on it) Cheers 👍

    Gary Fisher Wahoo Project (help!)

    I've been on the lookout for a project bike for a while & managed to pick up this thing on eBay: I did a bit of research & It's an 18" Gary Fisher Wahoo in titanium (paint, not metal) 1996 model - Acera X rear derailleur - Gripshift shifters - Altura cranks - some rubbishy v-brakes

    Saracen hardtrax near blackburn

    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2276017679263343/ Looks like an absolute bargain - very jealous as I'm after a Saracen & the listings near me are slim pickings at the moment

    Diamondback Vail Classic info?

    If anyone on here has any knowledge of these bikes I'd be interested to hear it! I'm on the lookout for a 90s hardtail and one of these popped up in the local listings. It looks a nice enough bike but there seems to be absolutely zero information about it anywhere online, unlike the Diamondback...

    Ribble 531c Sport

    Hi guys, this is my 90's Ribble 531c Sport. Got it a little while ago and am very pleased with it :) If anyone has some info on these bikes that would be great, I tried to contact Ribble but they were pretty unhelpful Cheers
