Hello!
I want resto an Specialized Hardorock like this one in pic, but white.
Do you have a list of tools that I need for dismantle all the components please?
Thanks!
Picked this up at goodwill the other day. Another subreddit help me narrow it down to 1990-1992 based on the shimano 100gs but I can’t really find much else. I can’t find anything from KHS with the top tube sloped down around those years. Anyone have any ideas?
All finished mechanical restoration of my daily get to the gym bike, ended up getting new rims. The Chris King hub was easy enough to find a 26inch, the Bontrager front hub proved more difficult due to spoke count, hence the mismatched set, but it had a mismatch set before, so it feels like the way it should be for this old bike.
This is my first new project. A Radiant from the 50s possibly early 60s
Serial# 52004901640
It's either a 90 or 91 and love this bike. Had one years ago and stolen from storage until. Got another one and I want a rear luggage rack and a kickstand. I have original paniers for it but need the original vintage rack..
So I picked this old Fuji frame up from my local bike co-op, I can't find anything about this model online and Fuji's archives only go back as far as 2006.
Can anyone shed some light on it?
Hi guys, I have a steel road bike frame (from the 80s), that was repainted, but I remember it had "Enik" and "München" written on it. Do you know anything about the manufacturer?
I got this sirocco frame for ONLY 60€. It feels super light and the tubes look like Gilco tubes but there is no sticker. Is there a way to be sure if it is Gilco tubing? And there is some kind of heart underneath the BB shell, does that indicate something?
Another question I have would be if anyone knows something about the brand sirocco? All I could find out was that it seems to be a brand from the Netherlands. Do they maker good frames? And there's a name on the top tube of some previous owner but he seems to be a private person and no racer.
And there are some kind of serial numbers on the lugs, is that normal?
Thank you for every response, I look forward to finding out something about this nice frame!
