mountain bike

I have come to accept that my trusty BMW 1 Series is no longer fit for family life - I have 2 boys (aged 11 months and 3.5 years) and they require a lot of stuff. And that is before my bikes get taken into consideration. So we need something bigger - and I keep coming back to T5s, as my...

Hi all, Thinking of buying my first transporter and I'm looking for some advice and inspiration. I'd like to buy a T6 and covert it into a camper with space to store mountain bikes inside alongside the bed (I don't like the idea of hanging expensive bikes off the back on a rack)...

Had about 3 weeks converting my Van so far. Wish i'd found this site before hand as i've made plenty of mistakes already. Pictures to follow shortly.

Hi guys Sorry if this post is in the wrong thread, I've decided that I don't wanna wait any longer before I get my first T5. Current situation means that I will be looking to finance rather than buy outright. Those of you who have experience of financing a T5, can you offer any tips or tricks...

Been looking about the forum for a while trying to build up some ideas for my van. Ive been wanting a layout which allows me to keep a bike with wheels on in the back while also having the bed in there but also keeping some space to cram all the camera kit. After seeing this build thread using...

Hi guys, I'm looking at getting a bike rack for the van, being bit of a tart I don't want something that's permanently on show (I've also got a rear spoiler so I can't use a Fiamma bike rack) I have however heard about the westfalia detachable tow bar with the Strada DL4 bike carrier. My...

Hi guys, Just to explain my situation, I've been mucked around by a company in Andover who promised me to get the van in for conversion and now a month a half later they've just turned round and said no. So what I need is a conversion company who is top quality and can have my van fully...

Hi All. A mate of mine showed me this video: Just wondered if you've got any good ones..

Hi guys just picked up my new LWB T5, Im wanting to convert it into a mountain biking/weekend camper. Now theres lets on here about condensation build up, so my question is: Is there anything i can do to prevent this? I just maybe thought there would be a protection paint you guys have...

This is my son's old bike, he has bought himself a larger framed bike now. This is a 14" frame bike with 26" wheels and front suspension, it is mainly blue and white but its got a few scrapes and chips on it. It has 21 speed Shimano gears which are the thumb shift and come with matching Shimano...

This is my daughters old bike. Ideal for camping trips or that first bigger mountain bike. It is a Raleigh Starz 24" wheeled girls mountain bike. It has 18 speed Shimano Revo Shift twist grip gears. I have changed the cable outers for pink sparkly one's to keep my daughter happy. It has a...

So, reluctantly up for sale is my Spesh SX Trail. Its a 2006 frame in superb nick, never been cracked welded or repaired, some obvious trail stone chip marks and a little scuff on the right side of the down tube above the Specialized name (pictured) but nothing major and in really lovely...

They are both in black, the swing arm looks as though it was red and painted black. There are a lot of scratches and running on this frame, it's been well used in its time. It is the frame with single head shock, this works well. The sale is for the frame, forks, handlebars and stem. There are...
