  1. Any retro trials gurus able to help me out with some info on these? brought them a while ago but wanting to know more as i've never seen a set like them before. Not sure if they are special edition off a monty complete bike maybe seeing as the hoses are a clear blue colour stamped monty

    Yours looks mint!

    Recently I salvaged my own one from the back of my parents garage (where it'd been for about 12 years). This one was ridden by Chris Akrigg and then Danny Holroyd (who sold it to me). Unfortunately it's cracked around the bottom bracket so needs some repair work and then a good polishing, but I intend to build it up with parts from the era which I'm collecting slowly. Mine has a few differences like disk mount on top of the seat stay, internal headset and (as far as I can see) no serial number.

    It would be interesting to hear if Pace have anything to say.

    Nice! That's not the late one (too big) that Trialskings and Akrigg ended up on so might be a '98. I think you'd want the RC30 forks (not T), the later ones with the neater cnc crown. But be aware the legs are long! I cut a good 20mm off mine and they were lovely.

    These aren't as nice but might match the finish of yours better....

    I remember Akrigg's one with an Azonic shorty stem and double wall bars. basically everything silver.

    i believe from the catalogue images i have seen the rc30t forks are correct to go with my frame but there were 2 slightly different versions from 98 to 99. after that there were a later set which were welded which went with the later powder coated red frame

  4. So i finally got my hands on my dream bike from when i was a spotty teenager growing up riding trials! And to say its in good condition is an understatement pretty stoked right now and excited to start collecting bits.

    I've been following my dreams and ticking a few things off the last few years one being starting my own mtb specific shop based in norwich 2 1/2 years ago which is going well so figured it was time to find my unicorn bike

    frame number is T7092 which from the pace serial numbers thread over on retro bike is already on there previously owned by spitoon

    i'm planning on a period correct build using as near mint parts as i can source which i know is going to take some time and effort and eventually this will hang somewhere in my house pride of place! 

    anyone able to help me identify if its a 98 or 99 model as i want the correct forks to match but the later 99 model i believe had slightly different crown to the 98 version.

    if anyone has anything kicking about that they think would be suitable for the build then please comment or get in touch. I do have a few bits already and a few wishlist parts which are listed below but i'm open to other ideas if people have something suitable
