Took a punt on this hoping I could make it fit somehow but it ain’t gonna happen. Frame is amazing, made in USA from OX comp III tubing, very light even with the sus fork. Would be banging with a nice rigid one and think you can squeeze 650 x 2.1 in if you fancy it.

Would like to get back what I paid which is £220. It’s now conveniently located in N4 rather than Leatherhead.

Frame is in pretty good condition for its age. There’s a bit of crazing to the paint, some scratches but nothing horrendous, and missing paint and a bit of rust on the bridges and RH stay from dropped chains.

Fork is a 2001 Bomber Z5. Visually very good condition (still have protective film over the decals) but I know nothing about suspension. It’s goes up and down but makes a little squelching sound so assume it needs servicing.

Parts a bit of a pick and mix. Mostly LX, with an XT RD + gripshift. Needs a decent clean and tune up but everything works, the RD prob needs new jockeys.

I don’t ever sell full bikes and have probably missed something so let me know if you need any more info.

note - pedals not included but I have some I can throw on if you need. took the chain off to check the 650 clearance, will be reattached.

I have some old railings that I’m gonna turn into pot hanging racks for the kitchen. The paint over the galvanised steel is flaking but looks nice. Is there some kind of ‘direct to metal’ equivalent varnish/lacquer? Brush on - hammerite seems to be unavailable or discontinued

Bought these on eBay as a backup as some reviews of the PAUL Klampers were not great but I’m happy with them so don’t need these.

It’s a mismatched pair of flat mount + post mount (they are sold in pairs so you normally have to buy 2 sets if your mounts don’t match up F+R).

New in packaging with 160mm rotors, a couple of IS to post adapters and bolts of various lengths.

£120 collected from N4 or postage at cost.

I always keep in mind when reading that X bit of gear = Y performance gains for Z price, that they likely have clients that will eventually be covering the cost of Z.

Chances of me making a single pound from my expensive hobby are pretty remote 🤣

Yeah I have a few outboard bits, mostly delays + an old Roland sampler that you can live process for bitrate drum dirtying. Still need/want a verb (got my eyes on OTO at the moment) and a compressor.

Did look at making cables but don’t think I will go down that route (yet) as my current approach is ‘if it doesn’t hum it’s good enough’ so will prob just buy a couple of snakes and make do with stagg for the moment.

It’s arrived! Don’t really need all the inputs but found it for a good price and couldn’t find anything else decent in a more sensible size with stereo in + groups for the same money.

Now I need to buy a patchbay, a lot of cables and learn how to mix :)

Yeah, VTE-1600. Sounds great though I feel it is a bit of a luxury even compared to the rest of the stuff I’ve managed to accumulate so it might not stay, as realistically the funds would probably be better off used for a compressor, or a new computer etc.

That LUP is thing is madness/amazing.

Holdsworth MTB in what looks like 18 inch (ish) frame + segment fork. Maybe made from gas pipes but would make a good looking runaround.

can I put in a provisional dibs until I can check a couple measurements later this eve?

I have been up to my usual tricks of spending money and not making recording any music. picked this up a couple of months ago.

Studio currently disassembled waiting for a 24ch mixer to arrive (and to free up my desk to do tax returns) once that is cabled up with patchbay/routing all sorted if I still can’t bang a tune out I’m gonna sell the lot and spend it all on bikes and records.

Stump up some extra pennies and get a pulsar 23 😅

Not really sure what the chances are of anyone having either of these knocking around, but figure it’s worth asking here before trying some other forums.

Fork must have a disc tab, other details don’t really matter.

Hub must be the nicely sloping/non-angular shell and in good conditi0n.

Cheers!

Quite a lot of things to do still as only good for blasting it around London at the moment. Not an entirely bad thing as not much else to do...

Gonna go dynamo next month with new wheels. How easy is it to have a setup where you can switch the front light in and out? (edelux/beacon)

2nd dibs chainkeeper

I want to polish this hub to a mirror finish, which tool do I need to get into the 90 degree angles at the flange/6bolt area? Dremel?
