Yeah dead funny, someone asks for advice about something they know nothing about hoping for someone to set them straight and gets ridiculed.

Bloody hilarious.

STW is great sometimes, and sometimes its not.

Both very helpful thanks.

Can you run the mmmbop with 100mm forks or do you really need to go for 120+, due to the geometry? Also read that it is suited to a short stem (50-70mm)?

Thinking about building one up as a commuter (mainly road) as I am wrecking my specialized Roubaix (Lacquer on carbon stays is peeling off).

Is the mmmBop a good choice for a road commuter, with some occasional offroad use? or is there a better frame to start with?

I want disc brakes & ability to fit mudguards (prob crudcathers or similar, not full guards), not bothered about panniers. May go 1×9 or singlespeed, not decided yet. Drops or flat bars, not fussed.

Maybe I would be better going for a CX frame?

male or female? 🙂

I assume an explanation is coming?

does that contribute to global warming?

How?

Looks a bit like a shit ache!

Enjoy the trip!!

More madchesta

Oasis – Digsy's Dinner

Could it be a pisstake based on the Tin Man in the Wizard of Oz?

No I am pretty sure they actually do it, and believe it too.

FTW?

any idea how much that pure blood is?

EDIT: Found it 2599 Euros!

Bit disappointing that its only cable disc brakes tho?

I am 5'7 – 5'8"

Also would the mmmBop frame suit dropped bars and a more road bikey build or is it really suited to a hardtail xc type build? Really like the look of the frame but have always had drops on my commuter road bike.

the 20th isnt a Friday is it?

Jóhann Jóhannson "IBM 1401, A User's Manual"

Inspired by a recording of an IBM mainframe computer which Jóhann's father, Jóhann Gunnarsson, made on a reel-to-reel tape machine more than 30 years ago, the piece was originally written to be performed by a string quartet as the accompaniment to a dance piece by the choreographer Erna Ómarsdóttir. For the album version, Jóhann rewrote the entire score, and it was recorded by a sixty-piece string orchestra. He also added a new final section and incorporated electronics alongside those original tape recordings of the singing computer.

The full story of the album can be read at ausersmanual.org

Can't beleive nobody has mentioned Sandy Toksvig yet!

I think there was a video of her in the "Karma/Bullfighting" threads?

You could try something like this: Vinyl to Digital but probably cost a fortune.

What records will you be selling btw, do you have a list? I maybe interested in the northern soul & funky stuff.

many happy tedious hours sat in front of the Pc making Mp3 files.

Some cheaper ones here:

You could probably fleabay them when you are done?

I am saving up for a Maxx-D, already got a joystick but that will go on the helmet with the Maxx-D on the bars.

If you can get the output of your current decks to go into your laptop somehow, probably via a soundcard of some sort then all you need is this bit of free software:

Jenny powell, pretty foxy now?

RE: the op, if you were approaching the second exit, but taking the third, why did you indicate you were peeling off left? I think the driver could be forgiven for thinking that you were taking the second exit

The second exit was split (entry and exit), I should have said i was approaching the 2nd entrance, i was way past the exit.

Ive got a SUUNTO Observer.

Compass, Barometer, thermommeter, alitmeter, and it tells the time!

My old ipod photo used to do this, give it some juice from the mains and not through the laptop!!!

I love on CSI and other US shows when they say "burglarized", surely its burgled?

Surely it's "donkeys years"?

Isn't it Donkeys ears?

try charging it from the mains and not the laptop, sometimes they need an extra "boost".

I am selling an 8GB touch brand new if interested, email in profile.

AUDI garage:

part costs X,
parts + labour cost = X + (Xx10) = arm, leg and first born child

Your better of with your local garage IMO.

I few minor warning lights came on on my A3 (emission control system, glow plugs etc).

Parts were around £100, total estimated bill came to over £900, told them to get stuffed. (they also found lots of other stuff they said "needed" doing, but the car was totally safe to drive).

Hows the sizing? Ive got a size small giant xtc at present which is a 17" frame, so would I need the 16" mmmBop or 18"?

£600ish to spend on a replacement commuter

I am a commuter, can you spend it on me?

Youve got a Banana for a willy, tee hee!!

No real benefit then apart from some minimal weight savings?

Ive never seen a tapered steerer tube like that before, whats that all about then? Anyone explain please?

Ive got an old Giant XTC composite and have been very happy with it, but it has been upgraded significantly, only thing left to change is the crankset/BB but until the original truvative one dies I simply cant justify it.

My traffic is probably quite significant at he moment as I am continually adding & modifying pages, then looking at the page to make sure it looks OK in a number of browsers.

Dont want to delete by city as this would be a significant chunk of the hits.
