Yep, prices do seem a bit crazy. I'm looking for a cheap rear hub and even pretty old stuff is selling for big money. Quite tempted to empty out the spares box
Mad another £50 and you can have new ones that work in whatever colour you want.
I've sold a new-ish (fitted but hardly used) hope stem and chairing this week and got within £10 or so of the rrp for them

But can you?
Just done a quick search and £140 each end, most places are out of stock with the odd rear or front in stock in some places.
I need some vbrakes for my sons bike. Remembered that xtr’s use to do that parallel push thing. Insane money!!!
Ooft.
I've a set of M8000 XTs I don't need any more....

Interesting, I have some XTRs in the shed (callipers & levers), what are they worth?
I thought the old XTR V’s with the parallel push mechanism went baggy after a while as the bushes wear - and then they squeal / aren’t much good to anyone?
I've had XTR Vs on my commuter for the last 10 years, never had a problem with them...
nickjb out of curiosity what sort of rear hub?

I'm putting a disk on the back of my commuter so nothing fancy but it needs a disk mount and a 10 speed compatible freehub. 135 qr.
Just sold a frame that I paid £255 for in 2007 for £385, I felt a bit uncomfortable with it tbh... And a pair of 2007 forks that were £250 for £220. Madness..
I think I've got an old Hope pro 2 hub 135mm QR kicking around. I can check tomorrow and let you know if you're interested. I take it its just a hub and not a wheel you want?

Sounds good. Just the hub, I have a wheel to swap it into. Message me, thanks.
I've just sold a set of Profile clip on aero bars which I used twice. Went for £35 more than I paid for them new! Crazy times.
Will do when I know for sure i've still got it.
An old E4 and c2 is shoddy condition - £183 must be 25 years old
