    I've just seen this on leboncoin.fr: https://www.leboncoin.fr/velos/2604343175.htm The photos and description have been taken from an old build thread of mine: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/98-sunn-revolt.133831/ My bike is in England and is not for sale. The seller on leboncoin has good...

    Sold Scott Speedster

    I bought this as my first ever road bike to commute to work, but I'm selling as while it is faster than MTBs that I normally ride I don't find it as comfortable or as fun to ride. I wasn't sure what its worth so put it on eBay but the winning bidder never paid or replied to any messages, so...

    2007 Cotic Soda

    I bought this frame from @Southville Hop a while ago which was an absolute pleasure, and thought I would start a thread. It's not much of a build as I pretty much swapped everything over from my Leon Bike prototype which I had to accept was too small for me. This is bigger but comes in about...

    Sold Endura Single Track Fleece jerseys - worn once

    I've got a couple of Endura Single Track Fleece long sleeve jerseys in large size for sale, one black and one forest green. I washed them, wore them to commute to work and back once (about 1hr each way) with a base layer underneath and jacket over the top, and then washed again before accepting...

    Sold DBR Jersey

    1993/94 ish(?) DBR long sleeve jersey. Its marked as XL but I'd say tis more like a medium - actual measurements are 46cm pit to pit across the chest and 56cm from the top of the collar to the hem. Very good condition with just a few marks as shown in the photos and colours still nice and vivid...

    Early disc brakes for XC bikes

    Having just been browsing old photos and videos of late 90s XC race bikes, I noticed that disc brakes seem non-existant, although you could buy an XC bike with disc brakes from at least 1996 onwards. Does anyone know why they weren't used at the top level? Did the early discs not work very...

    Bike security recommendations

    Does anyone have any recommendations for good bike locks? Mainly for home garage use and occassional use in town when shopping etc for short periods of time. Having a quick look online I was surprised how expensive some are now, you can pay over £200 for some Abus D-locks. Are they worth the...

    2000 Commencal Supernormal - sent to try me

    I took delivery of this as a complete bike back in February 2014, but its taken me until now to get into a rideable state - and it still has issues and isn’t finished. I must admit that’s largely because I’ve been busy with other things and this has been forgotten on and off. The bike in...

    Lubing Shimano rapidfire shifters

    I had a Shimano rapidfire shifter that wasn't clicking through the gears very smoothly or consistently, so I removed the cover and gave it a clean out with some GT85 which seems to have fixed it. Before putting it back together I assume I should apply some lubricant, but what's best? Wet lube...

    I'm after a front mech for 63 - 66 degree chainstay angles, bottom pull and 31.8mm clamp size. Ideally something mid-late 90s LX or XT if such things exist, but really just want something to finish a build. Does anyone have anything they'd sell?

    What's happening here? Front mech / chainring position issue

    Going to fit the front mech on a new build and I've run into an issue getting it positioned properly that I've never encountered before. With the mech as low as it will go to avoid the trailing part of the cage from hitting the chainstay its still nowhere near the chainrings. Below is a...

    Orange F7 fork a-to-c length

    Does anyone know if Orange F7 forks come with different axle to crown lengths, e.g. were later forks longer for suspension corrected geometry? I have some with an axle to crown length of 390mm that came with a 97 P7 frame. Does anyone know of this is the correct length for the frame? The 97...

    Posting a 29er to Europe

    I need to post a 29er to Europe and I'm struggling to find a good method. The bike is packaged in a proper bike box but its too big for lots of the usual suspects (Parcelforce, Interparcel, Parcel2go, Interlink), or its UK only or business to business only or there are other drawbacks such as no...

    Sunn Obsys SCO fork (2000)

    I bought these forks as NOS a while back. I've fitted them to a bike, ridden them for about 5 miles then took them off, as I think they were too tall for the frame. They are a light weight air sprung fork - they were 1562g with an uncut steerer on my scales. The steerer is 1 1/8th x 195mm...
