Hello @rubon87 . If Mathes66 is not interested, I would definitely be interested in a dark grey RM17. I’ve been looking for a 36h version for some time. Thanks Martin

Good evening, I have added a Bullseye rear hub 135mm axle conversion kit, modeled after original parts. Set consist of: Axle in 7075-T6, Silver spacer in 6061-T6 and Stainless steel shims. Thanks Martin

XTR M900 headset mounted. I hadn’t noticed before that the crown race actually has a retaining ring in a groove, nice detail! The steerer is slightly too long, but I don’t want to cut it, so I’m using a few spacers for now. These Litespeed stickers are awesome To get a bit more room for...

Hello! That's awesome. Only 4 numbers! I see you are enjoying the bike, it looks great and what a backdrop! Quite different from what I have in Gothenburg. Kind regards, Martin

Yes agree, that’s one of the things I really like about Litespeed as well. They offered such a great range of accessories. Wouldn't say no to a 1989 Merlin though 😅. Wow no way, that's cool. You took good care of it, the frame is in very good condition and just needed some light polishing. It...

Hey everyone, This build thread originally started on Retrobike, but I thought I’d continue the project here instead. I've shared the build already on my Instagram, but I wanted to post a more in-depth walkthrough of the build process here.. It began with me buying a complete, truly amazing...

Good evening, Added some Cantilever straddle wire ends (or what they are called 😅) Stainless steel with M4 set screw. Use for Grafton/Joe's or similar cantilever brakes. Modeled after original vintage Grafton.

I've finally got some parts finished and will be uploading them bit by bit here. If you have any questions, please reach out to me. Yeti step down ferrules, modeled after originals on my 1990 Yeti FRO. Bullseye cranks shim set, consisting of stainless steel shims and aluminum spacer. 1-1/4"...

Added a new set of smaller Ringlé decals in black, as used on hubs and the stem front plate. COOK’S and PRO-LITE by CQP small oval decals are also available, made for the chainring spiders. These were recreated using original references. YETI rear-stay decals: gloss transparent laminated...

Hello, I’m looking for a Rock Shox RS 1 crown with threaded 1-1/4 steerer. I have to trade a crown with 1” threaded steerer 139mm long - it looks like it could be new. Thanks Martin

Thanks for the replies. Since the bottom bracket shell appears to be in good shape, I’ll reach out to a few frame builders to explore repair options. Cheers, Martin

I’ve updated my reply :) I meant stripping the entire frame. For repairing a section, I do understand that some paint removal would be necessary — and maybe even a tube replacement. I haven’t dealt with an issue like this before, which is why I’m asking for advice.

Thanks for your reply. There’s no visible rust or any hole inside the bottom bracket area actually. Stripping the whole frame would probably be counterproductive, I think paint is one of the standout features on these frames. Has anyone here had experience with a similar repair before?

I’ve been after a Salsa Ala Carte for a while but haven’t been able to find a frame for sale. A friend of mine owns this one (1991?), but it has a nasty crack in the seat tube near the bottom bracket – probably caused by rust. What do you think? Is it worth trying to have it repaired? I’m...

Next up – screen-printed Sliding Yeti stickers I’ve carefully replicated every detail from NOS Yeti originals – all the small details are there. Two versions available: • Early full white background • White + transparent version Note: More matte compared to the originals and also they’re not...
