I ordered some of the folding Z Max in 26" and was really impressed with them and quick delivery. They do come up narrow (more like a 1.9) but bang on 500g which is pretty light... So I ordered another pair... and some 26"Peyotes... and some CX tyres... and some handlebars... I was going to get...

Just for info, I bought a really nice, lightly used E4 frame 6 months ago for £70. Great, light frames and that one looks like a 99 model as the rear dropouts were different on the 98👍

I've been looking for a neon yellow Saracen bottle cage for my 89 Limited Edition for ages and then two come along at once 😂 (Let me know if you would sell one separately;)) Great project for someone GLWS

I saw this bike at the weekend at Cannock Chase - It's lovely and wish it was my size! GLWS

Many thanks! Zoom was the first section of MBUK that I used to read! I only have a handful of issues from the early 90's but the race reports and pics are still ace :)

Here are a few photo's from the Retro XC Race at Cannock Chase at the weekend. Bloomin freezing, pretty muddy but fantastic fun! I rode my 98 Orange E4 and my son raced his 92 Aluminium Elite and there were some other fab bikes on the start line including a De Kerf, a KHS, a Raleigh, a couple of...

I’ve never noticed that before but it looks like it!

I've just sent you a PM :)

Can I take this please, I'll send you a message 👍

They seem to appear in waves... There were a couple floating about on eBay before Christmas. If I see anything, I'll let you know. It might be worth asking in the all things Alpinestars group on Facebook

What a bike! simply stunning 😍

I'm pretty sure that in the early 90's, the LX was the lowest spec model of each range. I've a 92 Clockwork but it's a late model with the 93 Deore LX groupset. I vaguely remember seeing mid 90's Clockworks offered with Alivio. They were also available as a frameset so any period parts will...

As a teenager, the early Clockworks were my dream bikes. They were out of my budget but they seemed to be the best value lightweight XC bike on the market. I remember going to the Malverns in 90 & 91 and orange and white Clockworks (and Prestiges), with riders in the distinctive black and orange...
