forget this.i thought that it had got lost. ๐ณ
well for one thing,my bikes are my only form of transport(if you don't include public transport/walking).also i would have thought that people would be happier paying less for items,as well as poorer people being able to afford bikes/components e.t.c. my last comment got lost in the either(it said i commented,but my comment didn't appear).
Agree raceface knock the import tax down & put it on petrol/road tax and see how many more of us ride to work every day.

You want to meet Mike Ayles off Bike Magic, he's by the far the most accomplished stuff-breaker I've ever met!
Just worked out that my two lightest bikes are close to a ratio of 10:1 (I'm really fat at the moment!).
By the end of the week I should have a singlespeed together that's closer to 12:1
+1 nick - mikes crazy
i only lost a bet on how long the massi would last because he hasnt taken it to france with him !
Haha! The thing is that Mike looks so sweet and innocent, he's hardly a 6'5" 20 stone animal! Very odd indeed. Think he's the only person I've met who managed to get all the balls in a Shimano hub to disintegrate within weeks!
