Amdro Angel?

Just to further Craig's description of the stolen bike, the 'Juliana' stickers on the top tube had recently been removed leaving an area of shiny, 'as-new' paint which is quite obvious apparently.

Keeping my eyes peeled and fingers crossed here.

I love the idea of them but fear that my 1/2 UK size difference between feet will prevent a good fit… like climbing stickies.

Well, now the weekend's over I can report that a bike did get nicked.

A friends car was broken into while she slept in her tent not 5m away. The scrotes pinched a small Santa Cruz Juliana in black with SID's. Juliana stickers have recently been removed leaving a nice shiny patch where they used to be.

Please keep an eye out.

Its ok, I have a van in which I will be kipping in at the same time.

impulse girly deo works a treat!

0.99 start price, 3 piccies, the killer was the reserve.

+1 for Pen

Maybe not totally in your area, but Revolution in Bangor have always been good to me.

Biecs Betws in Betws-y-Coed, near Penmachno and Marin trails gets my vote too.

Further south, Holy Trail in Mach is another good shop that I have only visited once, but worthy of future custom.

oddjob –

If the on-one wheel is in ok nick, other than the fubar'd freehub, I may be interested if you want shot of it. I'm after a very cheap 29er rear wheel for an experiment!

Dunno if it helps, and sorry if it's a bit cheeky, but I have a steamroller for sale:

Surly Steamroller

Yeah, that'd be good, except I'm running BB7's.

Maybe they're doing this to protect YOUR card details from being robbed?

Joe Blow sprint here – just cos I am original.

Aboout 20 pumps to 110psi (700 x 32c) – not as good as I had been led to believe by reading online reviews, still a well made pump though.

+1 for D321 or even D521 (rim brake version of 321 – may be cheaper).

Hubs? what ever you can get really.

A dehumidifier and a heater can turn any room into a great DIY drying room for all your gear!

Langdale campsite has this setup and it really works!

I know of a few hostels that use it too, so Im guessing its worth a shot for your room.

I've just got a Kaffenback (its my only roadie bike) and it gets the thumbs up from me. £700 with lots of Ultegra and a bit of 105, steel frame and all the braze-ons. Whats not to like?

Any behavior like that, no matter what age deserves nothing less than two fingers and a pint in their face.

Dogs.

Can't girls go out without be made to feel like meat?

Old Man Mountain racks don't need braze-ons, Tubus do universal fit kits for their racks too.

hmmm…. ill wait and see if anything changes. doubt it. Real shame.

Pieface – no sorry, Hollyhead – cardiff/chepstow – Hollyhead in 7 days (at a guess).

You could always get a train to Bangor, cycle leisurely (as I did) to Cardiff then train back to Sheffs.

Just a suggestion. The route takes in some really nice parts of Wales.

I can really recommend the 'Lon Las Cymru' – Hollyhead to Cardiff or Chepstow.

It was my first tour and loved it. Took 5 days singlespeed. I reckon with gears you could make it there and back in 7.

Ale – Bath Ales 'Barnstormer'
Ale – Abbeydale Brewery 'Absolution'
Ale – Wadworth '6X'
Ale – Jennings 'Snecklifter'

I let it soak for about 10 mins then thoughly rinse with water.

Not sure if its the right thing to do, but I assume it is.

Macpac Minaret

KoolStop 'Salmon' pads are worth their weight in gold!

Schwalbe Marathon XR.

Brilliant tyre. Surprisingly capable off-road.

I really enjoy CyB on a SS hardtail with 80mm forks.

Mud Lovers here. I likes 'em muchly!

Thanks for your input.

Im edging towards the logo, shame really, as I had just accepted the high price tag of the Vega (£50ish) and the Logo goes for approx 50% more! Oh the price we have to pay for steel! 😯

lx stuff is now a so-called 'trekking' groupset, hence the larger gears.

if its for a mtb, i'd go with the deore.

Roller skis you say….

any good?

Excellent inbred!

And yes – as cool as it is to bash on-one on here – I think that geometry-wise they are one of the best bikes EVER!

Amdro make some good, true, 'multi-purpose vehicles'. The T5 conversion may be what you're after. check them out. http://www.amdro.co.uk

just bought the whole kit Kaff! got it fri and just finished it!! its raining hard so no test ride just yet.

I went for drops.

"bant"

I toured the length of Wales in a singlespped inbred with a carry freedom trailer. I sold the bike to a mate when I was short of funds ad would pay twice what I sold it for to get it back – even if I only used it for touring. They work very well for this.
