Size ???

If you want to sell it let me know (to replace my stolen one).

Post it in the rat bikes thread.

Not being funny but with your budget you're better off finding an older geared bike with a screw on hub and converting it or buying a new back wheel for it, failing that there's a few on ebay at the moment that have already been converted.

Genesis flyer 58cm complete bike (thats what genesis say but it's huge(i'm 5'11 and seatpost has loads to go and has a long reach), Omnium cranks (external BB track cranks), Look carbon forks, other nice bits and has alex standard wheels with flip flop rear with 18t freewheel and your choice of fixed cog 16t,17t,18t and 48t chainring - all ready to roll, just add pedals. Looking for about £350. Pics on request.

Thought you'd say that somehow ! Can't knock a man for trying though.

You sure you wanna keep that GT ?

Serious bit of kit that, i've always liked the tripple triangle thing.

If anyone spots a 53-54 cm tourer suitable for a 900 mile ride gimme a heads up please! Have been looking myself but work outdoors all day and the regulars of this thread always seem to spot stuff I miss...

Got a Raliegh Pioneer going cheap but in proper good nick, let me know if interested it would make a great tourer i think, got canti brakes and comfy riding position. Just need it out of the way got too many bikes at the moment, i'm in Bristol but can courier to you no probs.

I'm out, gotta work - shite.

On the bay now.

Damn, just bought some 'omega' wheels for my beater - i would have defo had a set !

For sale my stepfathers old but immaculate Raleigh Pioneer, for sale because "he'd rather walk these days" (retired). Not the usual thing for this forum i know but thought i'd stick it on here before it goes on the bay. It's in Bristol but can be delivered any time after next weekend for about £15-20.

54cm ST, 57cm TT.
Lugged 18-23 frame.
Shimano 100GS shifters and mechs. (18spd)
Sakae XTE chainset.
Sakae stem and seatpost.
Shimano M200 canti brakes/SLX levers.
Alesa 414 black alloy rims on ? hubs.
IRC Cross Country 700-38c tyres - like new.
Pioneer Gel saddle (looks well comfortable).
Plastic Mudguards (discoloured slightly and rear has a small crack).

I took it out of the garage and gave it a quick once over, cleaned and oiled chain etc. and it rides very well, i don't think this thing has done more than 100 miles from new.

fwiw I don't think you'll find any risers in 26.0, you'll need to shim...which isn't hard.

I know, coke can stylee. Was hoping for something a bit more old fashioned but i'll bare them in mind - Thanks.

Need some risers in 25.4 or 26.0 clamp size and also a lever to go with, preferably RH. Oh and grips would be nice aswell. Must be cheap don't get paid yet but need ASAP and need to be posted to Bristol.

have you got any pictures of the tyres, not familiar with those ?

just buy this shimano at a ridiculous price. If you plan to ride fixed for a while you should have a good tool. or get the FGL one.

Got a pedros 'fixie tool' for a bargain price, saw that shimano one but already have a chain whip and hated the idea of buying the same tool twice. I have to say that it fits BB's aswell.

Wow. Stunning.

Agreed.

Probably.

I used the pedros fixie tool thing for my BB's, so I guess it would work the otherway round. If you've got one, try it first I guess.

Cheers mate, i thought they looked a little similar - i thought that seeing as the tooth in the slot and pressure from the rest of the tool is the only thing that makes it work, it would fit as long as the tooth did. That means £2 postage rather than buying a new one as i can't find mine and i'm putting a new lockring on a new wheel, so if i borrow one i can't check the tension after riding.

fully rigid MTB is getting there, right now I'm installing Shimano SLX disc brake instead of Deore.

Just put on some flat bar too (not pictured), going to get another tyre for the rear to match the front (2.1 front, 1.9 rear).

Are they 29er forks or suspension corrected ? Look a little too long ?

Nice bike that Marshall, love the gumwalls with black rims - thats given me an idea for tyres on something i'm building up at the moment.

Unless anyone wants to sell me one cheap ?

Does anybody know if an older style bottom bracket lockring spanner (c-spanner) will fit a hub lockring ? If so it saves me buying one because i have one at my other house.
