    Yep now seen the link is same frame, maybe perfectly valid reason, have you seen previous listings? maybe postage/collection issue? Does sound dodgy but your money should as others said be safe, you bought a frame of a dodgy seller, could be worse, it may turn up and you find the bearings need replacing 😆
    (sorry Kael)

    I thought it represented the involvement of the Royal Warwickshire regiment in the battle for Bremmen after D-Day (actually the last major battle of 2nd world war)
    The regiment had connections with Cannock Chase I think,I seem to remember reading something about them having training exercises on the chase, possibly them that gave name to Kitbag Hill?
    Not sure on the significance of 25, sadly I would assume more than 25 of the regiment died in the battle?

    Ive no comment on the state of your kitchen cupboard (don’t place heavy tins of syrup on top of less stable cardboard boxes) but your grass needs cutting

    (ps Ive right clicked, saved and am emailing your pics off to Premier Foods straight away, I want free beans for life and Im not settling for anything less. This is a travesty, all over my newly installed kitchen. The shock just sent my wife into labour, and she is not even pregnant)

    Why not check your frame clearance too see if you can get some 700c or 29″ wheels for commuting, with lower profile slick tyres there may well be clearance and will make more difference to your commute than a road cassette – faster rolling, easier to maintain speed and a bit more comfortable

    a mate had a similar issue on his way down A46 a couple weeks ago, the black rubber ‘rings’ the bikes sit on came off the end of the steel tube rack and the bike came off and bounced along the road with them still attached
    Admitedly his fault for not strapping it on more securely but even so there should have been some plug or something to stop the rubber things coming off so easily, even if strapped on if same thing happened the bike would have pivoted and bounced along behind the car, prob damaging bike and car
    He claimed on bike through his Nationwide house insurance and is getting his 5 year old On One Inbred w Sram x7 replaced with a new Ragley Piglet with Sram x9 and RS Revs, they valued his lump of mangled metal at £2.5k!!! (prob nearer £1.2k)

    I can’t believe all you guys are so willing to send the poor lad pedling off to an almost certain grizzly death
    How will you feel when his forks snap and cranks fall off when he is hurling down some gnarly rocky chute, sending him headfirst to his grave, via a tree and a cliff edge. All because you told him not to bother getting the frame faced
    I’ve read some bad advice on here before but this takes the biscuit, I honestly cant believe there is so many people willing to write someone out a death sentence. Your sick, all of you

    Phil will be fine, you just need a cup of his magic coffee, then ask Jedi about me binning it 3 times today 🙂
    Each time exactly as you say in your first post, getting drawn into looking at wheel then washing out
    But got up tried again and largely nailed it, absolutely great day, just wish I’d done it years ago as I now know exactly where I’ve been going wrong and can’t wait to get out there and put it into practises
    Loved hitting the drops and the step up too, especiAly the bigger drop into the last corner, I never would have done that this morning
    Like others said, you decide what and when to do it, although Tony will slow things down without you realising if he feels it’s needed
    I stil can’t believe what I really had to think about doing this morning was becoming second nature by the end of the session, I still haven’t figured out what or how he achieved it, I’m not normLly one to learn so quickly!

    I install gas boilers in Wallasey (which is actually not far from where I was born)
    The real me doesn’t appear on at least the first 3 pages, in images I’m not sure I remember growing a beard and putting on 10 stone!
    My wife however died in 1710 and it seems she was having an affair at the time as some other man (not me) is mentioned and images also brings up a picture of her headstone
    At least that’s the lack of bedroom activity explained… And her smell 😉

    I went from a 1 series to an i30
    Much more comfortable, partly the seats partly the use of normal tyres rather than run flats and softer suspension
    I have the premier w leather interior and more sportier shaped seats, thing they are same as in the ix35
    Been very impressed for 2 years customer service also excellent and has no probs other than a tyre pressure valve
    needing replacing
    Build quality is actually on a par with my old BMW
    Thinking of trading in soon for the new i40 estate, or an ix35

    It would return to normal pretty quick if you left your keyboard for 10 minutes and went out to play with carbon fibre and spoons then came back and showed us what you had done

    16.7mph true average over 5 mile route, 6 sets of lights all normally on red, half route winding through city centre then a continuous riverside path, done on cx bike and in no particular rush (no showers at work)
    Once I’m on the path and nothing to dodge/stop for/hit or run over I’m up around mid 20’s so that section through town is definately the slow bit

    Some downhill bits and decent routes on Ducany? Hill in Perth, up road past hospital to car park, follow fireroad opposite end of car park to entrance, round hairpin bend and to top of hill, next fireroad junction turn right (caution cyclists sign) you will see start of short official DH run (not hard) on rhs with other tracks coming down from lhs
    Loads more around too, easy to explore or google it

    I believe there is a rule for how much you should spend on an engagement ring?
    ‘No more than half the value of your cheapest bike’ or something
    You could always just get her an xtr cassette instead 😉

    We (I proposed before having the ring, bit of a spur of the moment thing in irelnd – top of gap of dunloe co Kerry) went down to jewellery quarter in brum made a day of it, treated her to lunch on way down (ok diner on a38)
    After a few hours wandering up and down we settled on a ring from a plce called Marlows, excellent service got exactly what she asked for (3 diamonds princess cut) rather than sales people trying to convince her to go for something else and more importantly a decent price compared to others
    There is also a pub right opposite the shop so you cn recover!
    Since had wedding rings from same place, made a big fuss about cleaning the engagement ring etc Alao hd ring valued independently and they confirmed the diamond cut, carat and clarity etc so know we got what we thought we where buying
    Struck us as a good honest place not selling overpriced bling like a few of the others down there
    By all means blow your budget flying out to amaterdam or Antwerp though rather than the ‘doesn’t count’ doorstep option (wife’s eternity ring came from south Africa, they do excellent diamonds! 😉 )
    (I was joking about ok diner btw)
