    ....or not. Now he wants a mountain bike instead. Sorry dude, I tried. Good luck with the sale, I reckon it won't last too long :smile:

    NSW SOLD - 21" (L) Hybrid - Dirt Cheap

    Yeah that's cool. The price is pretty reasonable, given the condition it looks to be in. Good to see we haven't missed it just yet. Currently trying to find a window of time on the weekend where we're both free. ANZAC Day and surf patrol and work and all that.

    NSW SOLD - 21" (L) Hybrid - Dirt Cheap

    Keen. Probably. Shopping for an interested but non-bike-world mate. Was going to build him something, but this ticks all the boxes. Give me a day or three to run it past him. I'm on the northern beaches, he's just moved closer to a city job & has Olympic Park on his doorstep. :smile:

    The Vintage Mountain Bike Thread.

    That is absolutely gorgeous. Nice work dude. Shiver SCs seem to be unobtanium now, certainly in that sort of condition. ...the cranks are knives at a gunfight though, they don't suit it at all. Toplines look best on skinny steel. (An excuse to build another bike!) A set of silver or...

    VIC SOLD Free Stuff!!

    I'd love that SDG Satellite saddle, but alas I'm in Sydney. It's for a mid-school retro steel Planet X hardtail (blue), with blue Z1s, blue grips, blue Middleburn bits, blue DMR V8s... and the saddle is period correct too. $30 posted, pretty please? I figure that covers postage AND a six...

    Trek X-Caliber 8 a good entry level bike?

    Cell have two complete bike shops in Sydney and Melbourne, and their after sales support will be top notch. I haven't bought a bike from them, but the guy who designed the Awaba (and several of their other rigs) is an old bike shop workmate, and has been heavily involved in the industry and...

    3x10 cog slip

    +1 for review gear choice & riding style. 32:11 (middle ring + smallest cog) is close enough to the same ratio as 44:15 (big ring + third cog, or thereabouts). (Divide the front by the rear to calculate gain ratio, in this case about 2.9). A triple chainring setup has a large number of...
