I have a near NOS XT M735 short cage rear derailleur that I'd like to trade for an SGS long-cage version in similar condition. Mine has maybe half a dozen rides on it and has never been crashed or dropped on. I put a black alloy pivot bolt on it but it will come with the original steel one as...

Let me preface this add by stating THIS IS A RIDER, NOT A SHOW PIECE. I got this frameset about 4yrs ago from someone in Mass. so it has rust. It also has a small dent on the non-drive seat stay. I received the frame this way and have riden it this way with no issues whatsoever. Seat tube...

This came on I bike I got last year and I have no use for it. It's a Trek DDS3 and since it looks like an old RS1 I assume it's a 63mm fork. The steerer is infact a 1". It's 155mm long w/32mm of threads. It doesn't look like it was cut very straight so it my need just a small amount of cutting...

Okay I know, not the right place to be asking but I figure some of you mugs might be into cross as well. I need a 700c cyclocross fork for my Bontrager CX. Something steel and straight bladed would be too swell although carbon would be a close second, 1" threadless steerer of course. Anyone got...

Here's a few pix of my kookie FS bike, a 1997 Breezer Twister. I have never owned or riden another FS bike so I have nothing to compare this to but it goes ka-boing so I guess that's all that matters. After I finished putting it together I took it to Moab last May for it's maiden voyage and I'd...

I want to start looking for a Monster Fat and I was curious about something. I haven't seen alot of them but some I've seen have a cool Frankenstein decal on the headtube (I think it was on the headtube). Does anyone know what year / years they did this or was it just done on a handfull of...

I know it's a Yo Eddy fork and all but that's alot of cabbage for a steel fork. The world of retro mtb's is quickly falling out of my grasp of affordability....ouch. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290027821371&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=019

Was just curious if anyone had seen this yet or if anyone knew if it was available to be purchased on DVD yet? I know there's no mention of Fat Chance on this but it looks very cool and I figure most of you have some retro-grouch in ya. http://www.klunkerz.com/

Howdy, I have a 91 Yo that is painted the stock yellow color and until the decals are available from Doug for a total re-spray I wanted to hit it with a little touch-up paint. Any ideas what the paint code would be and where would be the best source for it...local frame builder, auto paint...

Looking for a 1" threadless mtb stem in a 135 to 140mm and a 5 to 10 degree rise. Would prefer either an older steel Salsa or a Control Tech in black, cleaner the better. Would love a Ringle but too many coins required for those. Thanks all...

Could someone fill me in regarding the Fat Chance fork (the Big One?) and the Tange Struts fork? I just got a 91 Yo frame and it came with a Struts fork, which I'm sure was not stock but they look alot like the Fat fork. Is it kinda like the same deal as the Bontrager fork and the Tange...

I recently aquired a 91 Yo Eddy in size medium and I have a NOS Rock Shox Mag 21 but it's a threaded steerer. I know there are better forks to use but I'd like to keep the parts relatively period correct and this Mag 21 is just too fresh not to use. Would just like to avoid the trauma, and cost...

I have a 1" Salsa quill stem with roller available that I have listed in the "wanted" section. I'm more interested in trading it for a 1" quill stem of similar measurements just minus the roller. My stem is 110mm in length with about a 15 degree rise and is in awesome shape. No rust and the...

I'm putting together an old Bontrager for a friend and I'm needing a 1" quill stem to finish it off. I know I could go threadless with a quill adaptor or use a threadless steerer fork but I already have a nice threaded suspension fork installed. My friend has kind of a bad back and shoulders but...

I'm not sure if many of you check this website much but someone in the Seattle area is selling an 80's Mountain Fat Chance and a 90's Monster Fat. Just thought I'd throw it out there incase someone is interested, here's the link: http://seattle.craigslist.org/bik/150216762.html

So, the Shock-a-Billy on ebay (item 7231793623), does the derailleur hanger look hammered beyond repair to anybody? It looks pretty bent inward and also looks to be made of alloy so straightening would probably be outta the question, right? I confess I don't know alot about them so I guess my...

Okay, I'm dumb. Living in Santa Cruz in the late 80's means one rode a Bontrager so this is my first Fat. I got an 88 Wicked and after a little persuasion managed to get the old, probably original, bottom bracket out. Now I already have the new bearings and I'm just curious. Do I first press in...
