Does a 1" threadless cable hanger for cantilever brakes exist? I have googled and failed. Any help gratefully received. Cheers, Rob

Hi, after a nice DX chainset for a '93 build I'm doing, please!

I have some USE bars - the ones that you can attach the USE bars to - but want to use different bar ends (mainly because I don't have the USE bar ends!) Has anyone done this, safely, as the ends of the bars are drilled and I was wondering if the clamps on a standard set of bar ends would crush...

Afternoon, I have a '93 Orange Prestige and having looked at the reference https://www.retrobike.co.uk/wiki/Orange I can see no details for the seat tube internal or external diameter - can anyone help, please? I had assumed a 26.8 internal, but I don't know why. No, I don't have a vernier...

I'm after a Stalk Lite (I think) 1" stem in 130 - 150mm length for a '93 prestige. Best condition possible but will look at options!

I have a '94 Orange P7 frame that the nickel is peeling from, so I'm planning on getting it painted in a new colour. How is best to remove the nickel coating? One place has suggested an acid dip, another has suggested shot blasting? Are they both suitable? Any help appreciated. Cheers, Rob

Does anyone have any information / experience / advice on this brake? Looks similar to a tri-align but doesn't have the brand kudos or (I am assuming) the engineering backup - are they a waste of time, or are they actually pretty good?

I have too many other things to warrant bidding, but if anyone on here wins and wants to talk about the wheels coming my way... 👍 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156068026325?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=wCMmQ4G2QU-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=gmqAkuRXSc-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Was lucky enough to happen across a bike shop in SF last year where I saw a Rob English road bike, that had me drooling. Turns out he was a fan of Pace bitd and has made an homage to the RC100: https://www.englishcycles.com/custombikes/pace-rc-100-homage/

I'd like some Pace RC30 forks, please! Ideally 1" steerer, but I am assuming larger steerers could be swapped out and a smaller one fitted, with a shim. Canti studs. Cheers, Rob

Can't see it in the '97 catalogue - any ideas?

Not mine, but one like this was my first 'proper' MTB. I spent my cash on upgrading it to DX with XT shifters, got some nice wheels for passing GCSEs, rode it everywhere with my mates, great times 🥲 This looks almost completely original, bar the cantis and tyres. Can't remember what the wheels...
