    Tange LN-3922 BB in BSA 73 - 113(,5) a thing?

    Good old SJS https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/bottom-brackets/tange-seiki-ln3922-73-mm-jis-english-square-taper-bottom-bracket-113-mm/ Or a second-hand high-quality Shimano one from Ebay. The good ones are obviously good and last. I'll probably not wear out a BB on any of my 'non-commuter'...

    Kona Explosif

    Good job it's not 16/18" - they look pretty ruddy stupid underneath a 6ft 2 (not THAT tall) geezer. I agree - the price is the shame! Nice though, and a good size!

    Sad looking Ti Raleigh

    Tis my size! Tis St Ives down the road and not the one miles away! I have some nice Ambrosio wheels hanging about! Is it worth a squirt?! Only ever had steelies - should I look out for anything in particular re: this type of frame? Cracks anywhere I guess? Have a shed o'shoite I could...

    Dawes Edge 653 Newport

    I'd read that the finishing of the brazing was a little rough - but that close-up joint's as rough as a badger's @rse! Being a tinkerer I'd watch how Brodie/ other masters finish off a braze, strip the F&F, make it secksy and re-paint in something a bit more flamboyant. And only if it were...

    Chelmsford Raleigh 531 fun for £20

    Sorry about that - if you saw my profile you'd see I'm not a great user of FB! The best bits I get sent are to do with the band Ride and I'm a member of the 'drawing coc&s on newspapers' group - a most childish and yet hilarious group sharing home-made images of just that. Here's the F&F

    Titanium bike - £50

    And kick-stand! Who knows - perhaps those 6 tyres are NOS white Porkies?! Cool front light system, saddle bag - worth fifty squids.....no idea - good spot though! Edit, they're hanging in the background d'oh! I'd be useless in a police line-up

    help to identify frame & fork pls

    Yaaaaaarrrrggghhhh! Tis on the tip o' me tongue! Back in the real world: Sorry, no idea. The forks are cool. Someone will know - a bit before my time I reckon

    My first attempt at a retro MTB restoration. 😆

    Did Captain Nemo own it? Looks like it was stored undersea! At least the f&f look in good nick, but as above, that drivetrain needs some attention - some cables won't be the only thing you'll be needing. Could be a cool enough ride though with some savvy purchases and tinkering. Good luck...

    Raleigh Gemini Trail XC

    Excellent! Great frame, bulletproof paint and style.

    Real deal or fake?

    Nice work - a perfectly useable bicycle that, I imagine, gives a nice solid smooth ride (to the pub). Not a whippet but that's not the point. Leant up (against said pub wall) it will look smart.
