    My 1997 Trek Y11, Restored, Rebuilt & Upgraded!

    Hi everyone, I've just completed my Winter Project #2, the rebuild / upgrade of my 1997 Trek Y11. Originally, I planned to just replace the TREK decals that were damaged, rebuild the fork, do new cables & housings, and that was about it. Over the last several months, it turned in to much more...

    My 1995 DBR Axis TT Pro Build

    Recently completed this build, thought I'd share... Some time ago I came into possession of a '95 DBR WCF Vertex for like $160 I think. Was complete and just needed a fork rebuild and tune up basically so I did those and started enjoying it. Then one day I decided to search evilbay for a DBR...

    My 1997 Trek Y11 Build

    Greetings all, Popped over here after a Google search and found quite a few threads on Y-bikes so I thought I'd post about my current project. It's a '97 Y11 I got three months ago. Overpaid ($200 US!) but when I saw it I knew I had to have it. (This post is actually a recap much of which I've...

    Anyone ever upgrade an old Manitou 26er fork with springs instead of elastomers?

    Hi all, this is a long-shot post, but hoping one of you might have some info for me. Re: that DBR Vertex WCF I posted the other day ... the Mantiou Comp fork does actuate but I'm thinking about replacing the elastomers with springs. I found a couple different companies that might have what I...

    New-to-me '95 Diamond Back Racing Vertex WCF

    I just scored a completely stock, totally unmodified, original down to the reflectors 1995 DBR WCF Vertex, in 19” (my size) for $160 US. Did I overpay? I haven’t had a chance to go over it in detail yet, but the chainstay protector doesn’t have a mark on it, and other than some rusty bolts and...

    My '94 Diamond Back Axis Pro 'Tribute' (& many thank you's)

    Hi everyone, Just wanted to take a moment and acknowledge this community for being such a huge help with my restoration project. This is my only bike, I'm not a collector, and though I've owned and have worked on bikes as a hobby for 25+ years, I'm far from an expert. The people I have met...

    If I put '92 XT kit on a '94 (?) frame...

    ...what 'year' should I consider the finished bike to be? Kit is full XT M730. Frame (Diamond Back Axis Pro) is stamped indicating it was built in '94. To this day I have never been able to conclusively determine the year of the bike; the '92 Axis Pro had slightly different cable stops and was...

    Decal Protection 2020

    Hi all, Spent time searching and found lots of threads with the same advice (heli tape or similar, lacquer spray) and just want to check in as I've just had my frame powder coated (video here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CI-1uzXAunO/) and have started installing Gil's decals. Must say, Gil's...

    Dilemma: Build '94 Diamond Back as 'rat' XTR or 'nice' XT?

    Ok so up to last week, I was on my way towards a winter rebuild of my '94 Diamond Back Axis Pro, including plans to powder coat in gloss black and apply new decals (in-hand, thanks Gil!) I have all the (very nice) XT parts I need except a NOS CS-HG90 12-28 cassette, and when done, I'd have a...

    WANTED: XTR / M900 Right Shifter-Lever (pod only preferable)

    Hi, as I just acquired an old Trek with nearly-complete XTR kit I am now contemplating using the parts on my Axis Pro. However I'm in need of a right hand 8 speed shifter ... if necessary I would buy a lever/shifter combo. Anyone? TIA! -kj-

    1992 Trek 8900 - parting out - found on Facebook for $100US

    Well here it is, the #1992 Trek 8900 I just got on Facebook Marketplace for $100US. Happened across it completely by accident. It’s an incredible find, nearly all original, and still very ridable. Every bike tells a story, and I wonder what this bike’s story is. It’s obviously led a hard life...

    Different versions of FC-M730 cranks? Mountain / Road?

    Wonderful! Another learning experience! Are there different variations of XT FC-M730 cranks? On the the ones I just got, the inner ring hits the chainstay. (Wish I'd done a test fit before spending about six hours polishing them, but oh well...) I have LX (M563) now, and the base (where the...
