Hi all - Just picking up a new to me MTB frame tomorrow (in attachment if it works) and looking to build it up with period correct parts as far as I can. Cant say I know anything about mtbs, been concentrating on road for the last couple of years. Any suggestions AT ALL would be helpful to me.

Anyway - trying to source everything for this bike - so anything would really be considered (do have seatpost and seat). Not looking to spend a fortune - but l am looking for reasonable prices for reasonably used pieces of XTR M900 (period correct) and or XT Components. Front mech should be 34.9 pull down - that is all I know at this stage. Dont know measurements for anything else yet, so hopefully I am not asking a question that cannot be answered....

Perhaps Retrobike is the best place to post this - but I am not on there that much....

p.s. I am in Stockholm - so anything you have would have to be shipped!

bueller.... bueller...... bueller.......

Cheers,
D

was interested - but not at 1000 and not with the cheery attitude :)

If you come asking for price guide - and then throw out 1K ...

I would honestly say if you offered it from 500-650 tops you would get some nibbles. The bike is most likely not slx - but sl - and doesnt have the most desireable group, and does not seem to be in immaculate condition.

good luck with the sale

I think it is worth 100 quid shipped to sweden. ;)

could you kindly confirm model (prestige/super prestige), columbus tubing and top tube/seat tube measurement.

and if willing to ship to sweden at a reasonable price of course.! ;)

post number 12 of course ;)

I was looking for it myself

where?! Anyway, no matter. I know now.

if you can send to Stockholm - I will take the bartape for 25
Cheers

nice one - just saw one of these more local to me - but lesser components.

good luck

why did you take pictures of the bike standing in a childs bed??

seems a nice build

god I love happy endings

kudos

paint drip?

Oi you! ^

There's more pressing issues

ohhh my- I missed that one, must perform forum searches on my username going forward...

thanks for letting me know there was a storm a brewin.....!!!

holy fuckin sweet fancy moses....

Not so fast El Guapo! Or I'll pump you so full of lead you'll be using your dick for a pencil!

I dont even remember what website on this internets I first had to utilise this name - but El Guapo is really one of my childhood idols..

In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face. For some, shyness might be their El Guapo. For others, a lack of education might be their El Guapo. For us, El Guapo is a big, dangerous man who wants to kill us. But as sure as my name is Lucky Day, the people of Santa Poco can conquer their own personal El Guapo, who also happens to be the actual El Guapo!

I dont know why I am reading the thread - but when I look at the photos - I have one burning questions:

Could someone kindly direct me to the thread which specifies why people put extra long bmx pads on their top tubes.

I am not joking or trying to start a flame war here on the world wide wide. I must have just missed that memo - and frankly just dont fucking get why there is one on a track frame unless it is to protect the privates on a too short gent. I used to have one on my Schwinn Thrasher - but that was the last time I saw the top side of one of those.

Dont have anything to add to the thread - but like the frame and think the logo is fly.

Good Day.

not a stupendous bargain - but I think this is a deal if it is in great condition... just a tad too big for me. I mean 1100 USd - that aint much. Atlanta rims - Super Record group. He was asking 1300 a few weeks ago - so must not have gotten any bites - so could be negotiated on...

agree - misread myself - thought she had copy and pasted the full description from the other... and the photos...

I saw this ad right after it was posted and was thinking it was a cracking deal - would cost that much to just post some Zondas to me ... and almost threw in dibs just for the zondas..

3 wrong pics (pics were from her other bianchi sale)
1 wrong description

only thing that might match the bike that got shipped is the main description

Bianchi 603 celeste

lets just hope this ends up with the bike being shipped back at the sellers expense and money refunded (paypal gift = no coverage for nuthin)

could be a nice honest mistake

ed - looks nice.

what year/model is the colnago and tubing? got any rusty bits on the frame?

sorry if I missed it in a previous post

if you dont mind me asking to point me in the direction of said conservation tips - stopping rust etc -not had much luck myself finding complete trustworthy info.

cheers

Claud Butler 1951 New Allrounder. Almost ready to assemble. I'm waiting for the seatpost and sprocket. My first intention was to repaint the frame. Some guys from bikeforums.net persuaded me to safe and conserve the original painting. At first I stopped the rust. Then I experimented with some self made outlandish mixtures... Finally I used acrylic to restore the sanded areas and a self made pigmented wax to harmonize the different surfaces: rusty spots and areas, primer and top coat. It gaves the painting also a fine gleam.

bling bling

sweet fancy moses I want that

I dont know you - but I dont like you

glad the tommasini is too small....

hi benjy - that would be sweden.

i assume you wont have an issue selling it locally.

i would love to say dibs - but you aint gonna ship.... my loss

nice bike

2nd dibs on the stem depending on size (110?) + diameters and that the selling is willing to post outside of the U.K.
Cheers

maybe not edible but I would definitely lick it
