Hey guys, it's been quite a while and I've moved into some different options for mountain bikes. One of my 4500's is with my stepson in Dallas and the other is permanently loaned out to a friend that needs some exercise. I bought a Specialized carbon and been riding that.

So, I have all this vintage stuff in my garage that I will give away for FREE - catch is, you or someone you know has to pick it up.
I'm not going to box it and mail/ship it anywhere. I live in South Orange County, CA, zip code 92692.
Email me at nph@cox.net if you can arrange for a pickup.
If there are no takers, it all will be tossed (shame).

A brief list of things:

1. My original cross link that is set up with a disc mount - should be my avatar
2. Several other noleen shocks with a bunch of bushings and a complete bushing and pivot set or two.
3. A set of Magura hydraulic brakes that were fun but I pulled them off years ago
4. Several 7/8 speed XTR old style shifters - both sides
5. A few unmounted front and rear disc brake plates for the Proflex 4500 or such including a still packaged Hammerhead rear adapter that was never mounted.
Oh, I have some mud guards as well for the front and rear - maybe go back on some of my old posts and you can see them.

First one to email me and arrange pick it up - gets it all.

OP you cant just bin this stuff! Its getting harder and harder to find good Proflex spares.
If I lived anywhere near you I would call in and pay you for it but I live in UK. Please reconsider postage as I would dearly love to have your Crosslinks with that disc mount. Ive been in awe of this mod since I first saw it. Ive spent hours over many years looking at your photo and wished I had that set up. I still ride with Crosslinks and would so love to have a disc setup. Please reconsider and I'll pay you for your time, and what they're worth. Pleeeeease!!!!

I will try to work something out with Calif. connections to see if this can be saved.

That's precious stuff, man!
Those Magura brakes and XTR 8 speed shifters would come very handy for my "faux 957" proflex made out of a K2 1000 frame.
I already have the crosslink and want to maintain rim brakes.
Is that a crosslink shock I'm seeing? That would be great...

Are you really not interested on shipping?!?!? I'm on the other side of the Atlantic...

Is someone gets and doesn't want them, please give me a ring about those components, so we can work out the shipping.

Pleeeeaaaaaaase!!!!

I'm trying to work my Fairlane club connections there too.....

I can have a friend there Friday to relieve you of the parts.

Fletch.

w2zero · « **Reply #6 on:** February 26, 2014, 07:41:44 pm »

Okay, got the go ahead on the parts. They won't be tossed.

whisperdancer · « **Reply #7 on:** February 27, 2014, 05:46:15 am »

Great!
If you don't want any of them (crosslink shock, shifters or brakes), please give me a ring so we can work out something.

Spokes · « **Reply #8 on:** February 27, 2014, 11:09:14 am »

Yes that's good news. Maybe/hopefully we can talk a deal on the Crosslinks if you won't be using them ....

I'll take an inventory when it gets here and then figure out what I can realistically use and then spread the joy.

Willie_B · « **Reply #10 on:** February 27, 2014, 04:22:32 pm »

Glad you got it done. Thanks.

Great.
Please put me on the list for some parts!

Good stuff. It'll be like Christmas all over again

w2zero · « **Reply #13 on:** February 28, 2014, 06:22:23 pm »

I may have to pile them in my treasure room with the rest of the hoard. Gold and jewels, and Packard radiator caps, COPO Camaros, 427 Thunderbolts with racing histories, a Jimi Hendrix guitar collection and other really precious stuff. Yeah, roll in it for a while and watch out for Bilbo.

My cohort in California notified me that the coast is clear, his helmet is too tight and the halibut is in the freezer. Shipping to be determined tomorrow.

Woot!

Uh, to all then, since the feeding frenzy appears to be somewhat over - you're welcome - - -

I've still a couple of 4500's out there in perfect shape, somewhere, on loan, that may come back someday.
One has a cross link and 8 speed XTR -
The other a Rock Shox Psylo SL, Progressive 5th Element with xt disc's and Shimano 959 wheel set -

I'll get them out the door as well

Take care guys - as an old-timer from the original, original board (we've been thru a few), glad to be a part of the ProFlex innovation and history
