Does anyone know if the Hope titanium bottom brackets came in a specific size (or specific cups) for 68mm and 73mm BB shells, or do you just just screw the cup in further on a wider shell?

As per title, I'm looking for a Shimano XT M737/738 Top pull front mech with 28.6 clamp. What ya got? :D

As per title... I’m after the seatpost size for a 1994 Saracen Kili Flyer. It’s Tange Ultimate Ultra Strong if that helps and I’m pretty sure its either 26.8 or 27.0 as my 27.2 x-lite post is just too big to fit. Thanks in advance :D

I’m in the market for a Britsh made bottom bracket. Needs to be for 73mm shell with a 110mm-113 axle. English threads. Fuction is more important than looks, although both would be nice :D

So this wasn't part of the plan for 2018! :facepalm: Or maybe, on reflection, this actually was on the cards and it was the Clockwork AND the Diabolo that were completely unplanned. :roll: After a late night of bourbon & eBay I appear to have purchased another project. I've only got the...

I've just gone and brought another frame off eBay! Late nights, bourbon and the internet should not be mixed!! :roll: It's definitely a Saracen Kili Something.. (I'm guessing '93-'94) It is made from Tange Ultimate... Look at that fluted downtube... 8) Thing is, I can't find...

£150 BIN. Possibly worth that for the frame alone. 8) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GT-Zaskar-19 ... SwIBJacuuD

As title; I need a Deore DX ST-M071 left hand shifter pod. The one I have didn't seem to be working as it should & when I opened it I found it was FUBAR. :roll: :facepalm: Just need the LH shifter pod, so if anyone out there has one please give me a shout here or via PM. Cheers Chris.

Ouch! 8) 8) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/rare-NOS-vin ... SwHNxaKCzT

A suitable frame to hang this lot off... Hope reigns eternal :D

So, thanks to wiggviv, my second project for 2018 has arrived... It's actually a very pale grey. Lovely colour in the flesh. The artificial lights don't do it justice. Let the cleaning begin!...

I've just bagged this on eblag. Does anyone know a source for replacement bearing? I've got a similar Hope HS in silver that I could cannibalise for the bearings, but I'd rather not. :D

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Longus-Deore ... 0005.m1851 Another interesting one I've not heard of before....

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Retro-Vintag ... 0005.m1851 Unusual. I've not heard of these....

I'm after some brake levers suitable for an early-mid 90's build with cantis. Not wanting anything from Shimano- something a little more interesting, but still for sensible money. (I'm not talking Grafton here!) X-Lite Chicken Stix would be ace as they're to go on a build with loads of...

I've decided that I want to build me Dave Yates with Campagnolo kit. Priority is for a headset, Icarus/Centaur level would be nice. I'll be planning on gathering other parts as they come up, so let me know if you have anything. I'm not in any rush with this, it will take as long as it takes.

As per the title: I'm looking for a VGC or NOS left Shimano STX RC MC33 LH crank arm in 175mm. Like this one: Just need the LH arm, but would consider a pair.

Recreate something like this..... I've been in touch with Dave Yates, and they can't do the blown pattern any more, so I'm looking for someone who might be able to. Any suggestions?

I'm trying to decide on a new paint job for my main project this year. Given it's a fillet brased steel frame, one option is to simple clear coat it so that the lovely fillets can be seen. My concern is that with a more traditional paint finish there would be a primer coat under the colour...
