Hey All,
I am wanting to embark on a couple of new projects and need both advise and parts, so hoping this is the right place.
1. I have an old langster frame and am not sure of these parts, the correct forks, BB or headset.
2. I have been given an old Peugeot bike (carbolite103, I think) this could be a fun re-build, but not even sure where to start.
Thanks in advance.

Re Pug - you mean you have been given the whole bike or just the frameset. If latter, you may want to think before starting collecting bits, as it makes no sense throwing money at low end bike unless you want to learn...the hard way :) . Full bike can be bought for £50 or less even, so you have plenty of options to furnish what you have.

Thanks for the thoughts, it is a full bike, but does require a fair amount of work. Based on what you have said, I might move it on.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
