It's a labor of love and a testament to the quality of these old steel bikes. I'm not familiar with the RS650T? Good luck and happy trails!

Noticed some of these saddles on eBay recently and just wondering how your saddle has held up over time? What was the break-in period?

I've used the Schwable Crazy Bob tires on my Trek 930 on some pretty rough stuff and it has handled well. The only thing I didn't like about the tire was that it had a lip that extended over the wall...

Thanks for the replies. I ended up going 9 speed as quality 8 speed stuff seems much more difficult to find. I'm only 140lbs and don't ride that hard so I doubt chain life will be any issue. Nice to...

Microshift Advent 8 or 9 speed?

I recently built up a 92 Trek 930 to a 1X9 setup and quickly realized that my 1:1 granny ratio is not low enough. I've got a use for the shifter, derailleur, cassette, and chain on my Bridgestone and...

The Ritchey crank pulled of my 92' Bridgestone MB-1 had a 120mm spindle which is hard to find. I plan on trying 118 and will see if that's close enough.

Cheers.

Thanks for the suggestions. Definitely going to look into 36. For the amount of time I'll be using the middle ring I want to make sure it's not too tall. Thinking of either the Surly moloko bar or...

Thanks niknak, I think I will go for the 48/38/24 as I have my eyes on a couple of steel chainrings in that size. Figured I'd compromise on the high end to get me a few cm of ground clearance. Bike...
