It just missed the girders. The '49 is a ridgid rear/tele front and the '52 is plunger rear/tele front. Both have sprung saddles, so cool. Ive given the '52 to my dad as Ive no more room in my workshop. He's got loads of old brits in his but didnt turn down one more!

Hi, new boy here with my first post.

I have a pair of Girvin Vector 2 forks, and I could do with both the RK0005 and RK0006 (is that too many 0's?) service kits. I have found plenty on ebay and a couple of online sellers, but I'm in the UK and people either don't respond to my e-mails or I get quoted silly shipping prices (try $104 for 2 qty RK0005 kits!).

Does anyone have either of the kits (especially the 5) for sale, or can you point me in the direction of a shop in the UK, or one in the US that would be happy to send a jiffy bag to the UK?

Many thanks.

Neil

That's a kind offer.

I'll PM you over the weekend.

It was one of the ebay traders that tried to charge me $104 for shipping! Nice work if you can get it.

ALL SORTED  :)

One of the on-line traders I got in touch with had mislaid my e-mail, and all the parts I need are now ordered.

Terry, thanks for your offer of help, it was very much appreciated.

Now time to clear off the work bench, ready for the rebuild.

I'm finished with my new 855. It rides like a Cadillac. Thing is its only a 14" frame and fits me kind of small. Anyone interested purchasing  in a 14" 855 Frame and chain stay only? I'd be open to trade for a larger frame or larger different model frame of equal value. Having trouble posting photos so email me if interested and I'll shoot you the pics.

                                                                Thanks, Tracy
