For a proper retro touch, try tippex ;)

I could maybe help with the silver one depending on what you are after. I'll drop you a pm.

What length stem are you after btw?

Inspired by this thread: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/innovations-that-werent.483790/. While milling over the annoyance of internal routing (did that get a mention in the inspirational thread?), it got me thinking about things that once upon a time were considered useful or better but...

Yes, I've resorted to buying some damping foam to put around the cables on one bike. Rather stupid really.

Sure, will sort some on Saturday.

Ha, that's like all the BS eBay descriptions these days. At least it was accurate.

The bearing tools arrived today so looks like I'll be tackling this at the weekend. With the cables in place life should be easier. I've done a few in the past too, the coat hanger is my tool of choice if no cables or hose already there. It will be a full strip and rebuild so hopefully I...

I may be able to help with the m970.stuff.

I managed to find the brake I knew I had, but it's a right hand lever I'm afraid. I may have a couple of Deore levers, need to check I have both left and right, but should have. They were retired as I replaced the brakes due to a suspected leaky calliper (micro-leak.i heard it referred to)...

I don't think I have ergon branded ones but do have a few grips in this style if that's of interest?

It's just topping up so will give that a go first. I've postponed the plan for now, may as well do the full strip and rebuild at the same time so waiting for some bearing pullers to arrive then I'll get to it.

I'm used to bleeding brakes, done it for years, hope, Shimano, magura, avid/SRAM, Hayes, formula to name some. I happened to watch a video on the xt brakes I have, just because they have the catch cannister that screw on to the master cylinder which I hadn't used before, and the procedure...

I may actually have a full rear brake. Remember buying one as part of a bundle of bits I needed and was keeping as a spare as I have a set to fit on my son's bike and so far only done the front. I'll have a look tomorrow and see if I still have it.

Looking for something to adorn a nice set of cranks running a nos outer and granny. 110bcd, 36 or 38t, Shimano ideally, silver with ramps and pins would be lovely, as would condition to match the other 2 rings.

Yes, i-spec EV is one of the 3 I think i-spec options Shimano have created.

I've got some Deore levers of the same style I'm not using, you could swap over or pinch the bit you need from it? Saw this, maybe a full lever swap could be cheap. https://ebay.us/m/4ch05y

I'll have a play tonight and see what's what.

Yes, weird as was fine before the wheel and cassette swap. I'll faff around and see if I can sort it through cable replacing and b scee scrutiny.

If the spacers are out back on incorrectly, you can end up with the BB cup too far outboard which will then bind against the arm. Are you able to post a pic or visually confirm the way the spacers are set up and if the arm is literally tightening up against the BB cup?
