Wanted 76a worn barrels

Post by stripes1976 »

Ok. I've noticed recently a lot of 76a owners looking for solutions to the common problem of worn bores due to the after effects of carbon issues.

Can someone donate me a set of barrels with worn bores so I can create a cost effective solution for this.
I know the only rings available now are std and no oversize are available anymore.

Also could you make it known if you are interested in this for your bike?

No mate you need yours on the bike at the minute. Shame I didn't think of this before I sold everything. Although spending the few hours with you and your bike at the weekend has made me consider another 76a as a track bike.

well after the 14th they'll be off and I'll try and get them measured but if they're any use as a trial run..... Also you know a track 76 makes sense :)

mate, that just may be a problem.

76 and 73 barrels are different, they might be interchangeable i do not know but are not the same.
