    1995 Breezer Lightning

    When I picked it up in the evening and took it back to the hotel, I still couldn't believe my luck. The Breezer was naturally my mode of transport for my appointments over the next few days. "My God, help me survive this treacherous love." The bike rode well, the geometry suited me...

    1995 Breezer Lightning

    Okay, here we go... So I had just bought a completely original Breezer Lightning that had only been ridden on cycle paths....in Lübeck, 700kms away! I don't know a soul in Lübeck. Sh#t! But as they say, luck favours the foolish, and this was no exception. The seller mentioned that he was in...

    1995 Breezer Lightning

    Once upon a time...which means in March 2024...my little electronic search agent found a bike on the internet that I had wanted ever since I first saw one. Unfortunately, they are not offered very often, and it is even rarer to find an offer where the price and condition are so well matched. So...

    1994 GT Karakoram

    Since I screwed the front rack onto my Kuwahara for a tour in the summer and yesterday harvested a couple of cool brake boosters from another bike, I thought I'd tinker a little with the GT. I also had some 2.4" wide tyres I wanted to try and those monster-shin-eater pedals. So now the GT is...

    Cold in the mornings but now nice and sunny outside so I did a little lunch ride.

    I guess bike heaven gets some sick paintjobs now. Rest in peace Toxik!

    👋 New here: GT LTS 1996. Advice welcome!

    I love what you did to the bike! Maybe a Tioga DL 2001 DH in silver or an NC17 Starbar or something from Race Face? Dartmoor, Humpert and Amoeba also comes into my mind but I don't know the full names. I'll have to look in the shed. Dartmoor: NC17: Tioga: Race Face: They should all fit...

    V Brake set up query.

    Yep, washers and adjusters should do it. I had the same issue some time ago.

    Who made Front & Rear U Brake Frames?

    I have a 1988 Kuwahara Lion that has U-brake mounts front and rear.

    They do look really cool indeed. I just saw that you had already photographed them. Somehow I missed that. In my opinion, tyres should belong wherever you want them. If you need a full-sus-city-ripper, then go for it! Bikes are meant to be ridde. For me, they don't have enough knobs, but they...

    And you would love it ! I guess you'll have a lot to do if you come over 😁

    Really nice bike and it sounds pretty well going down those stairs. For crank bolts I would use some self extracting ones as they look nice and are super practical. When it comes to grips I really like the ODI Attacks both in look and feel. What tyres are those?

    The icicles suggest that you completed most of the race in a drift. Respect!

    1994 Rocky Mountain Equipé (lil' kerfuffle)

    I know it's not a classic mountain bike anymore, but screw it, it's the best I could do with the frame, and I can't wipe the grin off my face when I look at it, let alone ride it. So please don't judge me. Cheers, brothers!
