What does your dad do all day Steelsreal?

its a good question, not much. Hi hearing has gone and he never wears his hearing aids, he has diabetes so sweets are olut, half his foot was amputated a few years back so walking is out…

it is a nightmare…at this rate he’ll be getting a pompino frame & forks!!!

my dad is a nightmare,

87 retired master mariner, no hobbies, no interests, doesn’t watch TV, doesn’t read, doesn’t drink..

All presents for the last 40 years are in his wardrobe boxed and unused…

Thinking about sneaking in, taking some presents from a few years back and giving them to him again.

Thing his he gets a bit sulky if he doesn’t get a massive pile of pressies…

absolute nightmare..

triton cycles have the horsethief, the spearfish’s bigger borther, normal BB woth ISCG tabs, 142×12 rear end, and a kashima rp23 for £809.99

anyone want a On-one scandal in 19.5″ with a slackset to help fund this???? aaaarrrggghhhhhhh

does that mean you may be willing to post your pompino?? (do you still have it??)

I always use parcel monkey or parcel 2 go.

Think as long as you get the box under about 32cm it will only cost about £15 for upto 30kg

what wheels have you got with what tyres?

Thinking my boring road fixie needs an update to a scary CX fixie so want to run some CX ish tyres, not sure my omega rims would take anything over a 28c…

did one on an Altea, not too bad, if you get the right harness for Auto leads, and a set of plastic trim removal tools it makes the job much easier.

An afternoons work, top tips would be check the forums for Seat to find where the clips etc are, if you have to remove the glove box, don’t unplug the airbag unles syou have the battery disconnected,
other than that pretty straightforwa

blimey they’ve got a freephone number!!

Thanks a lot

a b2flex would be nice, or two to be precise, how would one go about procuring two Mr Trout sir??

and yes it was taskled that is currently on holiday…

wow that some impressive metal work, mine looks small by comparison..

where are you fused? I have T8-T12 fused and i ride a 19.5″ scandal with a 60mm stem and find it fine. Pre fusing I liked a longer stretched out position but as my stiff bit (!) is between my shoulder blades i find a stretch is too uncomfortable now…

Used to ride a 20″ inbred but changed to a scandal which i thin translates to the smaller inbred>??>

I guess it all depnds where and how much is fused?

How are you fused too? mine is metal work and a cage, dunno if that makes a diffrence

thinking of doing a weekend instead of wales for a bit of nature rather than man made. Any one got any route maps or gps files for some of these…

did one out of lynton that was really good a few years back but any tips greatly received 🙂

just checked back and we all paid £180 for the flights accomodation and transfer from a city somehwere nearish to Barcelona..

hostel we staid in is here

http://www.booking.com/hotels/hotel/es/barcelona/hostal-boqueria.html?sid=000935acf2d5e28ce431d2febcada22f

this is basic and the rooms are all the same size with differing numbers of beds in, but you will only need it for a base and a few hours kip right? On the ramblas so pretty much in the centre of it all, just watch out for the saucy ladies trying to feel you up but really lifting your wallet and phone…

Can’t find the link to the chopper hire there is one called fattire but not sure it was that one, we had proper low riders, choppers etc, and we even had a race, great fun..

barcelona, we managed to do it quite cheap flew ryan air to girona (laughably called barcelona by Ryan Air!) stayed in a hostel on the ramblas, took in a barcelona game, rode chopper bikes (push bikes) round the sites with a guide (£50 i think) and had a generally good time…

have you tried the clubs like Sotonia, fareham wheelers etc,

live in fair oak so will keep my eyes peeled for a pair of roadies, usually ride that way on a tuesday night, whereabouts on the Bwhatsist are we talking?

how to deal with complaints on social media…

right thats it then i have made my mind up…

I have officially no clue what to get

arrrrgggghhhh

getting confusing now…

kaffenback
cotic x
cdf at 899

anything else, ideally would like this ordered and done by the weekend 🙄

Can you post a link to the wheels please? Can only find single wheels for that price??

Also I rang tweeks just to check and they have no CDFs left so looks like a Cotic X may be coming my way…

i have only seen rrp as £899 so £719 is not bad…

But I have £800 so if i can find a groupset, brakes and wheels for £450 I could be on for a cotic X…

so any tips on where to get stuff like the groupset and wheels?

I have two pairs of these and really like them, not too bilky and not too hot either..

http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=43466

seem to keep the water out for a decent amount of time and easy to get on and off, good cuffs etc..

and only 799 for a 15.5″ matt black one, all the others are £989.99

crc not merlin

I read about Scud’s pestered him a bit then copied what he did…

New raw 29er, slackset, 120mm forks, absolutely love it, seems much more nimble than my steel inbred 29er and feels much livlier..

Absolutely love it..few issues with the hose clips being in odd places and far too many of them but one its built well worth it..

nice honda, but petrol, has to be diesel…

Looks like my only option is to rent the big thing, painful

Emma Leven…

Sally Betch

I have one of these;

Party grill, has a BBQ type top and a traditional pot stand, when in BBQ mode fill the bowl with water and keeps everything clean, uses the disposable bottlys, stable on its feet on the floor or a table..

about £45 i think from amazon

http://goo.gl/lGlOn

gggrrrr where can i get one for such a good price, i need one…

looks like very nice bike, love the raw/ fillet mix but for me it was outshone at Bespoked by Tim March’s 26er, built to wheelie as the man himself said…

A “mid life crisis bike” if ever there was one…Just a shame I cannot find any way to buy one…no reply from Curtis on emails…and can find no sign of it on tinterweb…

parcelmonkey.co.uk , as long as it stays under 20kgs it will be £7.50 + vat + insurance which works out at roughly £11 overnight.

Really easy and if you pack carefully you can send a bike for this price too…

Football pundit plural nonsense

the use of “he’s done brilliant” when did the ..ly get dropeed…

Oh and the olympics mean we will be “medalling” gggrrr

“Can i get…”

no, the person you are asking is working there and they can get you something but you cannot…I blame “Friends”

“We are where we are”

Well yes we are thanks for that

the 2.5 in a T4 is a totally different engine to the 2.5 in the T5

the T5 2.5 has a “maintenance free” drivetrain, no belts or chains..

http://pierro777.free.fr/DOCVAG/2.5_TDI.pdf

shows loads of info on the engine…

Thers is a “freewheel” and an elastic drive that should be changed every 100k and is the same sort of price as a cambelt change £400-600

i am informed silent witness is better

thank goodness for pvrs

all the myka FSRs are gone 🙁

Guess I just have to wait for one to turn up on ebay for £250

PF, many thanks for your input, I do consider myself “intelligent” and I work with contracts and things as a day job so fairly confident I can get my articles and mem right.

As the company is straightforward, two fo us and a 50-50 split I think we may be okay. Going to spend the evening researching all this and may be back tomororow for some sanity checking if you don’t mind…

Just been looking at the detail and http://www.startups.co.uk has some very useful guides about addresses, costs etc..

As I am in no hurry, it would appear that with a bit of effort and £20 it can be done quite easily.
