    Mekon Helmet - sorry Bern Watts - £18 posted

    Really nice lid, unused, white, with 'London skyline' graphics. Just too big for me (and sadly most other people) XXL - XXXL which I think equates to something like 63cm. Happy to post it for £18, or a bit less collected Sheffield/Leeds/a ride somewhere... I'd probably swap for a half decent...

    1991 Diamondback Axis

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DIAMONDBACK- ... SwYItcviHw needs a bit of rescuing, but with a bit of love could look a lot better. No bids as yet only a few hours left.

    long 26.8 seatpost (ideally black...)

    Doesn't have to be immaculate, or amazing, but ideally 400mm+ rather cheap, half-decent and tatty than heavy and immaculate or top quality and expensive. Ideally with a bit of lay-back to it. anything out there? Si F

    REALLY bright red grips...

    Like proper fluro red. I'm after some, ideally pretty skinny and not lock-on. I like flanges (going on SS) but not essential. Love my Renthals Any suggestions? Si F

    25.4 Planet X Mungo bars or simillar

    Hi, I'm after pair of the above, ideally cheap. A bit tatty is fine, and happy to consider other makes with the same sort of shape, to take road levers. I know PX have sold them silly cheap at times in the past (but only 31.8 left now) maybe somebody picked up a set 'just in case' and has...

    Solstice 100

    Anyone fancy this? (If youre not doing Mountain Mayhem) Sounds great, especially for £20! Could be a continuation of the 'gravel ride idea that I totally failed to make it to last summer (or sounds ideal for a retro...) Starts and finishes at a pub - what could be better...

    1991(?) Peugeot Altitude

    Picking this up on the way home from work today. Going to see if I can turn it into something rideable in time for the December BOTM :wink: Hoping for a moustache bar do-it-all type thing, inspired by the old Bridgestone XC-0... series bikes. There are a few 'issues' with it currently...

    Looks quite nice: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GT-Karakorum ... 0010.m2109 Collection only from Sheffield, but happy to pick it up for anyone who's interested... (DISCLAIMER: I usually then take ages to post things on though...) Si F

    USE Forks

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/mountain-bik ... 0008.m2219 Nowt to do with me, but might suit somebody on here. Look pretty clean.

    cheap 29er disc wheels

    Standard QR, not too wide, as they'll be rocking road(ish) tyres... Not looking to spend much, so not expecting anything very exotic. 6-bolt or including 180(F)/160(R) rotors if they are centrelock

    Cropton - 16-18 November

    I guess this is on, so thought I'd start a thread for it on here. Beer Festival and a bit of riding bikes. http://www.newinncropton.co.uk/beer-fest/ Also, thinking of riding up from Leeds on Friday evening, so offers of bag/tent carrying from there would be awesome. Might not be Retro-ing...

    WTD: Cheap 28 hole 135 rear disc hub

    Q/R, through axle, bolts or whatever. After a decent but cheap rear hub as above. Needs to be 28 hole though, and to take a standard Shimano type cassette… Anything exciting out there, looking for a new home? (or even a bit boring but reliable and workhorse like)

    700mm+ flat bars with a good sweep (31.8 clamp)

    As above. Don’t want risers, and somewhere around 11 to 15 sweep would be great. Salsa Moro or similar would be ideal. Cheap would also be good. Don’t need to look that pretty Si F

    This Sunday...

    anyone fancy this? Apparently it's only open for entries until the end of today though... http://velo29events.com/sportives/sport ... -407631345 I'm probably doing it. Went last year and really enjoyed it. Took me about 7 hours on a MTB with 1.5 conti XCs, but aimed at Gravel/CX/MTB and is...

    1992 KHS Montana Pro

    Picked this up cheap on Gumtree, probably about a year ago, but never got round to posting it up. Better pics of it's current guise to follow, but here it is just after picking up from near where I work in Leeds. Came with slicks instead of the Maxxis (rear's too big anyway) but other than...

    80’s MuddyFox RoadRunner - Definitely NOT Mr Blobby inspired

    Teaser for now - this turned up in the post from the good people down the road at Planet X (when did the collect in store option disappear on their website? Still, I took advantage of the 20% off saddles last week).

    colour advice

    So, hypothetically, if one was building a drop bar MTB based around an 80s Muddyfox, that was repainted in Alu-pro pink, and had a matching pale pink saddle as well, what colour would you go for on the Bar tape? I think the same pink might be a bit too much, but is going black or white a bit...

    Kirroughtree

    I'm up in that neck of the woods next week (May 27th to 1st June) - anyone around and fancy showing me around one day? I'm sure I could find the way round the marked trails on my own, but always more fun with others... Si F
