bullandbladder the one thing that is absolutely sure to unite you cowardly psychological parasites is a chance to take liberties and harass people safe in knowledge there will be no consequences. As long as this entire site sits back quietly while this kind of character assassination and harassment continues not one of your opinions has any value. As far as I’m concerned you are simply another fiend lurking in a human body with all the depth of a teaspoon and all too willing to follow the jackals to their next feeding. You know nothing about me or decency and humanity for that matter.

barnsleymitch I can study your behaviour just as anyone else can it's there for everyone with a basic understanding of motives and attitude to see. Let’s see harassment stalking organizing others into a concerted effort and quite a bit more. You are a psychiatric nurse who specializes in forensics. So you tell me what kind of an effect will this kind of treatment have on someone and there mental state or are you simply trying to help me ? Reverse psychotic psychology your very own kind of healing.
As I have said and continue to say your attitude and subsequent behavior considering the position you hold is worrying.

Tandemjeremy You lot are all TV brain washed your always looking for a plot or storyline otherwise it simply doesn’t make sense or isn’t interesting enough to distract you from how boring and senselessly pointless your lives are. There are millions of used bike frames many of which would be too expensive to refurbish or service and subsequently sell on. Is it too hard for your brain to understand that I specialize in fixing frames cheaply and restoring them so people can use them again. NO PROFFESIONAL TRADER WILL TELL YOU WERE THEY SOURCE THEIR STOCK FROM GENIUS!

I do not believe that there is a supply of legitimate secondhand frames on the scale you have them - simple as.

I don't expect you to tell me the details but enough to convince me they are legitimate.

I know where the bike chain gets its stock from - the legitimate suppliers such as Madison and the other importers.

Have you ever stripped a Giant Glory Frame down? If so can I get it back as it is probably mine.

Thanks

Being a shop kaesae i source all our stock from the relevant supplier, ie Lapierre comes from Hotlines, Shimano from Madison.

Don't confuse being a shop with being an ebay reseller of second hand goods.

Plus we only sell new or ex demo items so i am not sure where you are going with it.

ANY reputable retailer of any good in the world will be transparent and tell people where stuff comes from. To say anything different would be silly.

TandemJeremy As I said TV and stupidity. you do not believe because it fits your plot NOT! Millions of frames but a proffesional international trader can't get a hold of 300 a year? I have connections from taiwan to lanzarote or have you failed to notice the bearings bolts and other items I sell. I DO NOT ANSWER TO FOOLS.

thebikechain Unless their a small trader and it would damage there business to tell people. Ask any second hand car dealer were they get their stock and how see what they tell you. Or ask argos how they respray their frames. Anyway I asked about grease not lapierre or shimano. before I forget how do you guys weather proof your bearings and what kind of bearings do you service your frames with ?. It's easy to be open when your possition is secure.

depth of a teaspoon

Now that made me lol. Must remember to use that in conversation.

Second Hand Car Dealers - surely they get their stock from car auctions & trade ins.

Oh, the Sale of Goods Act states that "The seller must have the right to sell the goods", therefore the seller should be able to prove that they are not stolen

"Reverse psychotic psychology your very own kind of healing."
You know Kaeasae, it's arse drivel like this that encourages people to keep having a go, but then again, I think you are already aware of that. Could this be a case of unconscious trolling? Think what you like of me, you unusual little man, but please stop whining and playing the victim. As far as your 'business' goes, in spite of claiming to have clarified that youre legitimate, you've done nothing of the sort, and are still coming across as a bit of a dodgy geezer. Try stopping the vitriolic outbursts and insults, be a bit more upfront about your supplier(s),and ease up on the grandiose claims about your abilities. You never know, the people on here may then start to treat you a little more seriously. Just a thought, and for what it's worth, I expect nothing more than further abuse in reply to this. 😕

Our bearings come from the original manufacturer, i,e, hope for hope.

Generics come from the gruff but nice men with oily hands at Forth Engineering. They work well.

Grease, Rock n Roll generally. From Silverfish.

My customers like to know what we use so they know EXACTLY what they are spending their money - plus we don't like secrets. Nasty wee things that pop out later are not nice.

kaesae- .
It is reasonable to ask a seller where they get stock from - you challenge another on here and they answered and challenged you to do the same. You then change the goalsposts and decide to choose second hand cars as a defence for your refusal to answer - which also gets answered. You can refuse if you wish but people [ you may insult them as much as you wish but be aware it generally makes you look foolish as we will tend to laugh at your bizarrely worded nonsensical rants*] will infer a reason for your avoidance.

Millions of frames but a proffesional international trader can't get a hold of 300 a year? I have connections from taiwan to lanzarote or have you failed to notice the bearings bolts and other items I sell. I DO NOT ANSWER TO FOOLS.

Is that meant to convince us ...you get them imported to the uk from your internationall network of suppliers? This is apparently cheap? Does one of them live in a volcano and have a white cat?
Is anyone else picturing kaesae saying the capital bit in the voice of Mr T?Perhaps he has to have them all imported because he wont get on the plane FOOL 😉
Clearly you are a liar - poor health etc , bad back etc yet nimble with the frame...it is hardly surprising people doubt your honesty when you have been shown to be dishonest.
Like Mitch I also only expect vitrol as a reply like most I will just laugh at you.

again fairly easily available knowledge.

Kaesae. We don't want to know all your secrets but we would like to know roughly where you get 300 secondhand full sus frames a year from legitamatly.

do you get them from ebay? No obvious record of you. Police auctions? Second hand ads in papers?

I and others can think of no legitimate source for this number of secondhand frames at the prices you must be paying for them to make a profit after respray and new bearings.

Until you can give us some indication of your sources - not detailed but in broad we will continue to believe that they are stolen.

just a thought... although posting your medical notes online is a bit weird, am i the only one who see's that the first letter(MRI) basically says you have a disformed vertebrae that does not affect your spine at all and the second letter that you have back pain but are responding well to treatment. Its good to hear that the treatment is working, but not too sure what this letter proves/ achieves? (apart from giving all your personal details out on a forum full of IT specialists who using such things?)

kaesae: A few people have asked you where you get your stock from, why don't you just answer and stop being so difficult, or perhaps you really do have something to hide, people have answered you when you have asked.

Meehaja as I said the NHS is useless not many people live their lives lying flat on their backs that is however how a MRI scan is taken. They couldn't even spell my name right. for 18 months I couldn't feel my left foot and I spent 10 months on my living room floor flat on my back the NHS did nothing I had the MRI done after 1 year of yoga self taught and applied and also 1 year of physio exercises. I had also been seeing the osteopath for a while before the MRI was done. I have requested the MRI results twice so far and have received nothing. I can still only stand for 4 hours tops and am still in constant pain although yes the 3 hours of warm ups and exercises each day mean I'm far more mobile and have made more progress in 3 months than I did on your NHS in 5 years. NO Hope Service 5 years constant pain from a prolapsed disc at the top of my back culminating with 18 months of not being able to walk at all at first then clawing my life back day by day. Not surprising their saying everything is fine with so many people already suing them and an inability to manage resources effectively they are not going to admit incompetence any time soon are they ?

See the odd thing here is I think you got a bit of a harsh ride the first time out (not helped by yourself), and I'd still have considered buying bearings from you. However, the fact you're so evasive about where you're sourcing your frames from (even though you post personal details) makes me wonder what is up.

and there's a lot of rozzers on here it seems too

I can still only stand for 4 hours tops and am still in constant pain

SO you strip and service all these bikes whilst lying on your back then?

Personal details that prove junkyard and the TV brains are sh!t talking muppets. The problem with answering the question is simple no matter the answer I would still be giving those asking it authority over me and that I will not do. If you are not buying a frame you don't need to know where they come from as for my bearings and bolts and other products there for bikers and people with the right attitude so you lot having any of them isn't something I would want to have happen.

You seem to move fairly quickly in your vid. Is that because you can only work for 5 minutes before the pain sets in and you have to lie down again?
You say YOUR NHS, are you from this country at all?

Can you not show at least one receipt for a frame, even with some of the relavent details blocked out? That would prove the doubters.

Yes genius, you spend the 4 hours you can stand up during a day servicing bikes.

Do you crawl to the shops, or to see you friends and family then? Do you get wheeled flat on your back on a hospital gurney to pick up all these second hand frames, or do the 'owners' them bring them directly to your house?
