after reading the CW post i now know that!

cheers

i hope you get your bike back!

some times STW comes up trumps.

i dont have any MTB parts i can donate.

i have sold and bought stuff from “fennerhorn” i used to pick stuff up from his house in brighton.

i never had a problem with him. but he did seem very aware. (never let me in his house to wait in his hallway whilst he got the parts i bought. (i waited in the rain for 5 minuets whilst he removed a BB from a bike he was selling me)

I think we should have a specific thread naming bad sellers (inc paypal details/bank details, email address and ant other information) so we can do a quick search on their name (using the search bar) and see if there genuine.

Why has no one mentioned bombers or weeing in shoes!

*stays quiet about his stash of out-of-date signal flares*

(We have an agreement with police and local MRT that we let them know, and then have one manic 30-mins to set off all the out of date stuff in one mad go. Got the heart going last year with one that emerged from a sea kayak that was 5 years out of date…)

i had some thing similar in the Falklands. we set off 256 flares all types! was the best 2 hours i had down there (except the drunken walk from the harbour lights to MPA)

i thought the standard torque setting was FT.

FT=Fuc*ing tight

use a hot knife! get a sharp knife and heat it up on a flame and met through the fabric

i have seen a set of forks snap after having a disc tab brazed on. the for was never designed to take the stresses and strains associated with disc brakes.

i used a set of p clips on the seat stays and a seat clamp with pannier threads on them.

worked for the last 5 years on a pearson carbon road bike

You jumped a red light! i hope you get a ticket and a £50 fine! that will teach you.

No debts. I will find a IFA and see what they can advise.

also my company do not have to offer a company pension until aug 2016. There is a nice poster up in the workshop telling us!

Thanks for the advice guys!

Who would this professional be? Bank?

Looks nice. I would wait for the Sram red or order it from the U.S.

Also the stem is the wrong way up (IMHO) +1 for black wheels

petter solberg

Zdenek Stybar

they are quite old and are for specific frames (un like the modern ones which have shims)

charge spalshback

tip top-ish. i like to have my gears tuned and my suspension plush if there is a worn bearing then i will replace it (in time)

So if i can fix it for free (tune up) i will.

the rack will have to be disc specific!

i had all 4 out when i was 21! i was in hospital for 3 days as they had to break my jaw!

but i was told it was very rare for them to do that

the front mech will be ok.

i cant comment on the chain set. but you could just upgrade the chain rings

tbh, i think the whole entering process is a JOKE!

if i want to ride an event i will pay for my entry and turn up on the day. im not going to bumlick and send a postcard asking “please let me ride, i think your great”

i enjoy meeting up with old mates at ssuk. but this year i wont be! WELL DONE

the brakes will be fine for him, im guessing he is light weight. i would do the forks and 2×9 it.

then when he mashes up the wheels upgrade them to a nice set of superstars or classified £100 specials.

tingling in my right buttocks and in my right knee (at the back)

i went to my GP. he asked me to touch my toes and poked my back. he said “does it hurt when i poke it?” (me) “NO” (him) “ok push you hips forward, does it hurt when i poke it now?” (me)”YES!!”. (him)”Ok you have sciatica, ill send you for a scan. it will be about 4 months.”

thats all i know. other than whist I type this im in pain! (sitting up in bed)

he said to carry on as normal inc riding and working (heavy lifing and contorting my self through small gaps and holes)

im not sure what type? i was just told i need a scan so im assuming its either a CR of MRI. im a 25 year old male based in south london but will travel.

lower back pain (level 5 Out of 10) more on the right hand side but hurts on both sides of my spine.

i took mine on a few years ago.

i would ask the BA!

Another no to alu nips!

That will be me then!

E licence allows you to tow over 750KG MGW.

if you have the scaff boards then thats what i would use. they will last for ages. you dont have to worry to much about weight (i guess you have e licence)

do him for whiplash!

im sure thats the “done” thing at the moment!

+1 breadcrumb 👿

i was chatting to the Mrs last night and she said i hate it when my Scottish mate says “ken” which means i know. also a few other scottish slang annoys me “give it a chap” means knock it.

i think that come from my hatred for a guy who i used to work with when i was in the army.

these are very narrow! i tried them on and i was unable to fit my foot in!! http://www.evanscycles.com/products/bontrager/rl-mountain-bike-shoe-ec028020?query=bonteranger

how about a bit of round bar?

no sweep at all

Today i got “roger that” For f*ck sake your not in the forces or using a radio communication system!

if you dont want the bb then a hammer and chisel could work or a pair of water pump pliers.

but i would take it to my local bike shop.
