  • I'm acquiring myself a MTB frame and wheels. So I need lots of things to get me up and running. I'm hoping not to spend too much monzig on this, but I'm a bit of a snob, so we'll see how that goes.

    So before I start ordering bits I thought I'd check to see what people on here have that they might want rid off. I have some money and some fixed / road parts in trade if you might be able to help me.

    So I need everything basically, but here is a brake down:

    Hollowtech II Cranks and BB (triple ideally)
    9 spd Cassette
    9spd Rear mech, Long cage
    Front mech.
    9spd Rapid fire shifters
    Brakes - disks - Cable by preference (avid BB5?) + levers
    short shot stem
    Lock on grips
    FORK OF SUSPENSION - 4-5" by preference.
    Lizard skin chain-stay guard

    Joplin seatpost :P

    Many many many thanks,

    Harry

  • They don't have disk mounts hidden somewhere do they?

  • i have a 9sp sram cassette and a pair of rockshox recon forks
    details tomorrow if interested i am about to sleep.
    zzzzzzzzzzzz

  • Bah, no it was a kit you could get separately so I guess those forks would be useless in this day and age.
    Maybe swap it with someone for a straight cro-mo.

  • yes please smith. Send me a PM with prices when you get a chance if you like :)

    Hippie: How old is that deore LX stuff? And what are you looking for for it?

  • Got a brand new XT Chainset, Shifters, F+R Mechs sat here, what have you got to trade?

  • What do you want? XT may be out of my price range though.
    Drop me a PM

  • I've got everything x3 i bet in the garage. I'll write a bit of a list if you want. Most of it is very good stuff too, i just cant ever seem to say no. :(

    Also, have you got the frame and wheels did i hear you say? If so, are the wheels and frame disc ready, or is it V's?

  • ignore the last bit, i see you want discs. However, why cable? They suck!!! Especially as you can buy hydro for as much as the BB5's.
    I have a few hydraulic sets, and a couple of singles i can do you. Got tyres, seats, stems, allsorts. I'll list em tomo for you. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • They don't have disk mounts hidden somewhere do they?

    The rear hub is definitely disc mount. The front, I don't think so.

  • yes please smith. Send me a PM with prices when you get a chance if you like :)

  • PM'd

  • Slim can you pm me a list. Particularly of dosky things. Send me everything!!!!!

  • Can I get in on the list as well please? (After harry's had a look)

    Been meaning to build up the mountain bike for a while now.

  • Harry do you want the sus. fork back off that Kona?
    It's been sitting around you can have it for nada / hugs.

  • Prav: fuck yes! I'll give you some cash and hugs. When's good for collection?

  • Can you collect from slackers west polo tomorrow afternoon?
    If not, I will be free on thursday I can chuck them into BLB.

  • If interested I have, a pair of alex rims laced to deore disc hubs, a few cassettes 8/9 speed (deore i think), a dirt jump frame,deore 9 rear mech and a triple deore front mech, an LX v brake (very nice), a carrera full sus frame, a conti xc tyre and an old school tioga gumwall tyre. anyone interested drop me a pm.

  • Prav: I'm at work tomorrow. Thursday should be good. Not at work, but will be in millbank all day, and the comming west to pick up some shit from hippie.

  • Harry dude, i've been out sorting boxes and got loads of stuff. I'll do a post with it all in, with pics if i can make the hamster generate enough sparktricity, and obviously you'll have first dibs on it all. However, just kinda an idea, i have a GT Avalance 3.0 disc from that is fully complete, minus the wheels! lol.
    Basically, i leant the wheels to a mate to use for a couple of weeks, 3 days later his bike went walkies. This GT of mine has been used for 5 weeks (another long story) so is virtually new, like the cables probably havent even stretched in yet. If you want that, i would do that for £140?
    Again, its a full bike, minus the wheels, and if you have some wheels coming to you.............
    This is it....

    Also, what stuff have you got to trade. ;) lol

  • Thanks man, but I really don't need a full bike:

    Things I still need, should everything come off with Prav (yay my forks) and Hippie are as follows:

    • Stem
    • Bars
    • Discs + levers
    • lock on grips
    • Seat
    • Chainstay protector.
  • Can't you get some of that at work?

  • Yes.
    But I'm seeing what people have here....

  • Fair enough dude. I just thought things like grips would be so cheap you don't really need to bother.
