ah ok! now makes sense!

is it a brand new frame? if it is i would be calling dolan and see if they have sold you a duff frame.

i cant remember the last time i a saw a frame with straight chainstays.

in this case it would be the chain stays

but the chain stays will flair out to fit the tyre.

maybe the rear end is stretched out? whats the rear wheel axle width?

does it touch on both sides?

as the tyre max width is a 23mm i dont think you chain stays will be that wide!

also a 23mm tyre is tiny! EDIT 23CM is massive

are you using 180 cranks?

I don’t think it does, its called a CX chainset because of the chain rings.

do you have the correct GPX BB? I know they are different from a normal HT11 BB

there is a penny farthing race at the smithfield nocturn (i think) this weekend. http://www.londonnocturne.com/pennyfarthingrace.php

really! i have never heard of that issue before. unless as stated above, you have a narrow road chainset

measure the axle, i have a truvative chain set on my crosslight. i would be happy to check the axle length on mine

chain reaction are selling raceface cadence cranks for £50.

i was looking at them for my cx frame. sell the outer ring

cold bath helps me.

how about getting BETD to knock you up a hub? i know they dont have a tandem goldtec listed, but i do know they do 1 offs.

im having this issue with my dura ace shifters (all is brand new)

i cant figure out WTF is going on. keep trying new things.

why has no one mentioned bombers or weeing in shoes?

whilst at work i very rarely get a 3G signal so i cant receive emails, but i do get a text.

shed is a little tidier now (i think)

if your in croydon. (by any chance) we could meet up and use my trade card for halfords (about half price!)

haro mx2

or a mk2 santa cruz super 8

i love a 4.5 day week!

as for your paper problem im sorry but im stuck for ideas, but he EMPTY bottle sounds like the best solution

yeah rownhams! that would have been some good rolling

i just remembered, i ran out of diesel in a army land rover on the MPA to stanley road in the falklands once! the fuel gauge read full when i left half way there and i hit a bump and the needle falls in to the red! (must have been stuck) run out 3/4 miles further on. Luckily i knew the reccy mechs so gave him a call.

im going to oxford on friday to go drinking with Stopadooledoo then off to woburn on saturday with my mates then back to oxford to get pissed again!

sunday will be hangover/driving back to london!

i use sram. i buy the cheapo ones and find they are great. i can honestly say i have never checked my chains. when i fit a new cassette i fit anew chain.

but im all 10 speed now.

touch her until she say “For f*ck sake go on then!”

i run out on the m27. luckily i rolled down the hill to the rotherham services. the scary part was rolling past cars at 45mph trying to get on from the M3!

i forgot to add, it does look nice.

flip the stem!

cut the rear outer (by the mech) that will get caught

tweet them!

The cheese sticks are gopping. (might just be me)

Also I think £2.75 for a egg mayo sandwich is ok IF the filling is up to scratch but when 90% is mayo that’s not good.

Not had a lattice thing yet. Maybe next time.

peaslake stores!

brew is ok but there sandwiches are TONK as is the famous cheese sticks!

i just bough a pair of troy lee moto shorts and i was please, Until i saw that!

you win.

a lad who i was in the army with had never been on a beach/seaside.

he became a marine engineer. 😕

any good for night riding?

once i get seeded in a cx race i can call my self a cx racer instead of a cx rider

we (my company) just sold a myford super 7 with a long bed on it. it needs a lot of work on it. got £1000 on ebay.

they are not cheap! we have loads at work i might buy the other super 7 off of them. needs the bearings doing though

ThePrawn, ill see you there. RB 😉

i just got tickets for the womens xc race!

im quite happy with that.

all my road cassettes have a spacer behind the cassette body

is the lock ring to big and kicking the chain up? have you put the spacer at the rear?

i would say it would have been at the lower end as it has a brazed on seat clamp.

90% of Qr’s will be the same.

you would know if you had the 10% other size.

Just changed mine
