Bike clearout due to renovations. Starting with my Specialized Rockhopper Comp 1990. £250 sound OK? Collection from SE22.
Bought this from @sorethroat here a couple years ago. Done it up a fair bit. Really don’t want to sell it as I love the bike but space and money dictates otherwise. Done a few cycle tours and used for commuting daily. Probably my favourite bike I have ever ridden but I’ve just got a Mini-Max so need to get rid. Photos of bike in various guises. I have the original bars, stem and seatpost that I will throw in should you want to restore to original build
F+F - Specialized Rockhopper Comp. ST: 19" (to top of tt). TT: 23" c-c. Little bit of surface rust in places and a few paint chips.
Groupset - Deore LX M550 3 x 7. 7 speed shifter blew up on me when touring last year so has friction shifters. 3 speed shifter is still working if you wanted to use it. IMO friction shifters work far better so never looked to replace. If you want to restore to original build then there was a pair on here for sale recently.
Bars - Nitto Bullmoose
Wheels - Handbuilt by me (all within the normal inch tolerance I work to).
Front - SP Dynamo, Sputnik 26” 32h, Sapim Race. Will thrown in Alivio front hub as well.
Rear - Shimano Alivio, Sputnik 26” 32h, Sapim race NDS, Sapim strong DS.
(Note: I’ve nabbed the dynamo lights for my mini max so bike comes without them. I’ve also stolen the front skewer so also will need a 100mm skewer if you want to ride it away.)
Tyres - Schwalbe Marathon Mondial 2.15”. Not sure if it is possible to puncture these.
Saddle - Brooks Professional
Mudguards - GB stainless 26” guards. 60 mm.

Just finishing building my cargo bike and was wondering if anyone has a big roll of 2 core cable (0.5 mm) I could buy 3/4 m off?
Should also probably replace the cable connectors so if anyone has a pack of female 2.8 mm connectors could I buy 4?
If not, I'll go to ebay/SJS but would rather spend money here!

I'm sure this must have been covered but I've had a quick trawl through and can't find much.
What's the best way of attaching a dynamo front light to the front rack of a mini-max? I'm leaning towards this handlebar mount but it seems pricey for a bit of thermoplastic.
Has anyone got any smart alternatives? I've got a box full of crap but can't seem to piece bits together to make a suitable mount. I don't want to attach to the mudguard/disc brake mount as I think it might be too low.

Edit - I read road riding and immediately thought 3-bolt so ignore me.
(I do have the Giro Empires left here though if anyone is interested)

Wondering if anyone could give me some advice. Going to build myself a 20" front wheel on a SD-8 Dynamo hub. I've built a few wheels before but nothing this small.
Would a standard 32/3x pattern be OK or would the small rim and large(ish) hub flange result in funky spoke angles. Would I be better off with a 1x or 2x pattern?
Had a look at a few BMX forums and they seem to build with 3x so I guess it shouldn't be a problem. Any advice appreciated!

thanks for the interest. Will probably massively regret my decision to sell this but provisionally sold to @ferriswheeler
