1 1/4 stuff for McMahon Ti frame build
I'm new to the forum, and just picked up a McMahon Ti mountain frame at a bike swap meet. The only part on it is the bottom bracket.
I've done a few searches on the major search engines for 1 1/4 headsets, forks, and not much is forth-coming on finding this old stuff at shops. I don't want this build-up to take YEARS! Also, I'm trying to locate a photo of a McMahon frame...since the decals have been removed. I'd like to see what they looked like. Any suggestions, websites, etc., would be appreciated. I frequent many, many bike swap meets in northern calif., and have 1/2 of the parts already. The front end with the 1 1/4 stuff will be the hardest to find. PS: I'm aware I can purchase some headset adapters that will make a 1 1/4 work with 1 1/8. Also, a shop owner I do graphic design for has a Scott new old stock fork for me in 1 1/4 for FREE. (it isn't one of the recalls). Comments/advice please! |

Santana Tandems use 1-1/4" headsets and stems. You might contact them for parts or network with them for ideas. Larger Santana dealers have stock of some of those type of parts. eBay has listed some 1-1/4" parts in the past. You may want to scan there and leave an open search for key parts.

My Felt Trevisa has 1-1/4 Threaded RST forks. RST may have something.

I've got also an McMahon frame(MTB), with an 29.0? seatpostsize.
What are your MRC seatpostsizes out there? |
