Just a bit of clyde coast mooching for me this week with my 10 year old, hoping to discover more decent trails in the area over the coming months now that I'll be spending more time up here. Hoping to do callendar woods and carron valley in may when I'm next up.

Mate of mine built himself a deedar which rode quite nicely but replaced it with a tiktik frame a couple of months back which is a great little frame. Its a bit small for me being a medium but feels like a bmx compared to my 29er stiff squatch.

Looking for a rigid fork for a 19" orange gringo (99) - doesn't need to be original hence asking in the retro section. F7 would be great but also happy to consider others. 1 1/8", not threaded would be ideal. Thanks!

I'll have a look, cheers.

Good folks of macretro, I am looking for ride suggestions that are close ish (within 45 minute drive) to the largs area, either places with a few trails / lines that can be sessioned for a few hours or relatively decent sized (10-20 mile) loops of blue or red ish grade trails. That is the short...

Looking for £120 posted for the pair. Can't find a year / model number so open to suggestions if anyone can give a better / more exact id. Pics by request. Open to swaps on certain items. Pm me!

Mtb as far as I'm aware, pm your number and I'll WhatsApp a pic across for you.

As title, Good condition gringo frame in yellow, some scratches / small chips but generally tidy used condition for a 21 year old frame. Comes fitted with an fsa 'the pig' headset and will also chuck in a pair of bomber supercomp 100mm (I think) forks that unfortunately have a bit of rust...

Current thinking is get 4-5 years out of this one and see how I feel... But I'll possibly go very dark then!

I've done it. It's over... Retro riding, at least for the foreseeable has been replaced with the big wheeled variants. I have been in and out of riding the last 20 years due to various injuries, work commitments, family commitments, life getting in the way... We all know how that goes...

Re: The main issue was strength, if they had adequate torque in them they started to delaminate, I suppose this could be avoided by printing them vertically but that has its own implications. Printing in abs would potentially help a lot as it is a physically stronger plastic but without...

Looking for a cheap 9spd rear to get my brothers bike rolling again, ideally deore quality or similar What have you got folks?

As title please folks. Looking for some gold hope spacers and a seatclamp to finish off my mates on one build. Many thanks.

I've recently picked one of these up after years on various mid to late 90's oranges and I have to say... I'm converted to the big wheel / 2x10 way of life! I have a brand-x external routed dropper on the way but am wondering what the best approach will be for the cable run. I have bought...

Re: The file in question has a dished top and not a proper countersink recess but it shouldn't take much to tweak it in a cad program to have a proper (and strong enough) countersink to take a proper bolt. Getting the angle and diameter dialled in is the key. Once that's sorted I'll play...

Rub it in why don't you! Outbid by 2 quid earlier. :cry:

If I could justify the Thomson I'd be on one like a tramp on hit chips but even 2nd hand they are significant compared to what I've just spent on the bike!

Re: I'm bidding on a gravity dropper lp turbo thing at the moment. Will see if the price remains sensible.
