Mailed you any way.

im becoming one of only 10 clock tower engineers in the uk. im 1 of 28 shipwrights in the british army (im leaving soon).

quite boring.

nice pic!! i would try and get it out with some pliers if that fails then off to your LBS

thanks all. ill have a look in to CRC.

1111 are the last 4 numbers in my regimental army number.

thinking of getting it changed when i leave the army to “clock shop shaun” as im going to become a clock tower engineer.

green!

There are screws on the arms screw them in that might help. Also to run v brakes (properly) on a cx bike you need to run either mini v’s or use a ratio gainer, as road levers pull less cable than MTB ones. Hope that helps

I had a formula caliper mated to a hope lever, work very well.

Crank bolts? I’m assuming you mean chain ring bolts. Are they single ring specific? Use a touch of loctite on each

Met mine in the skylark in south Croydon. She was under age and I was only just legal! Mutual friend sort of (her cousin is one of my best mates) saw her and fell in love almost immediately! 6 years ago, still going strong

just do away with the pin.

i “make” my own cassettes by breaking a few apart to get the ratio i want. i never replace the pins and never had a problem

Toys19 Thank you very much!! i didnt have enough rebound!!

thanks i will have look!!

i have been eating easter eggs since early feb!! had them on offer for a pound so got them for all my family, i ate them so i replaced them ate them and replaced them not eaten the 3rd time round so far!!

just out of interest, but why dont you want to use a half link?? it may be a cheep and easy solution to your problem.

i had this problem a few years back, i changed chain and cassette (cost a few ££) all to be solved buy a 99p half link!!

any joy???

hope all went smoothly!!

yeah they will be fine, make sure your frame can take a bigger tyer!!

fluglebinder!!

bonus STW points if you can tell me what it is with out using google/wiki/ETC.

lucozade tablets!! http://www.lucozadeshop.com/body-fuel-energy-tablets/03626.html

always worked for me!! i think there in boots for 50-60p.

pork belly with bbq/oriental sauce!!

im up because the cat decided she wanted to go out for a widdle. ill be going out soon for a little gaunt before meeting my mates for a ride this afternoon.

yep i get it quit bad!!! i had the injection 2 year ago and it works!!!

im not hit at the moment but have drugs on stand by for when i do get hit!!

The older style LX levers had a adjustable pull ratio thing built in to the lever! If you have a spare v’ee brake lever I would suggest that you try it out.

I’m currently a shipwright in the British army but I start my new job soon as a horological engineer. Both are cool and unusual jobs!!

i went up a clock tower and put together my 1st clock (and it works)

just to throw it out there but how about a CX bike with road tyres??

then you can ride it off road also. thats what i do and some of my mates also.

i had problems with schwalbe tyres. they kept falling off the rim!!

in the end the bike shop gave me a new pair of high rollers!!

as i said it doesn’t bother me at all. it was just a question of “why do they still use MPG as petrol is bought and sold in the Litre”

thats all

was a jibe at the name!! i couldn’t help it

bit of a chopper hey woody!!

oneoneoneone, what age did you start driving a car? (assuming that you did), not sure what age I learnt about gallons but I’ve certainly known what they are since I started driving. (I’m 24 too)

i got my licence when i was 17. i knew it was a measurement of liquid, that was about it. i had other things to worry about at that time!! 😉

So if I offer you 16 pints of beer or 8 litres which would you prefer

either, all the same to me. but a pint does sound better

my dad didnt know what a gallon was and he is 45ish??

im 24 and i didnt know until i asked my grandad.

why would kids get taught about gallons? its a unused measurement that is only used my the motor industry (publicly)

Also i care about fuel economy. as well as giving it some “beans”

swinton is about £5.50

if any of you have kids around 16-24 and ask them what a gallon is.

i know its 8 pints which is about 4 litres.
