I am 90% sure Robert has 90% of the parts needed for 90% of the bikes out there.  hehehehe

You always seem to have the obscure part someone is looking for.

Hi Everyone…

I’m not sure if anyone can help…

Scott Spark 960 (2016) - Swingarm

I was stoked to manage to get my hands on a second hand frame (quite affordably I might add) from the UK. It’s a very long story, but a long trip and some squashed luggage later and it seems the rear triangle (swingarm) is now skew 😔.

I have wanted to upgrade to a dual suspension for a long time and now finally bit the bullet on this mission. I’ve already paid to convert my headset and everything, to be able keep all the components from my old bike (Scott Scale) but am looking for a second hand, not bent, rear triangle, or even just the chainstay? Please let me know if you have and what the cost would be? Please and thank you in advance.

I have the Seat-stay part you can have - the side a bit chafed by my shoe and a few scratches, but usable. ?  (sorry about a BIG pics ☺️)

Not sure i'll find this here as most people will still be riding with them, But trying to source these new is a mission and those who can get ask silly prices. Willing to pay aswell.. But anyone perhaps have a written off pair of Sidi shoes with the below heel rubbers no longer using the shoes??

Getting there 🙌🏻

Picked up these bits on Contermans trails.

If it's from the same bike ....sorry dude must have been a serious wipeout.

The one item is a Bolt from (I think) dual suspension linkage.

About 19mm by 19 mm.

Second item is a top cap of a suspension fork - Rebound or lockout adjustment. (fits over a +- 3mm shaft)

Sorry I have no value to add here but just wanted to say that looks bleak. Also sorry for whoever bought some property there.

The black one is definitely A linkage bolt , not sure where from but you can rule out Scott and Trek right away.

 

Second one is A compression selector from A fox RP shock , bike is very old if it has A RP shock.

My money is on a KTM Scarp and they do come lose and fall out a lot . The rider did not have to wipe to have these parts fall off.
