Ha! Still unseized! does victory roll
Just gone past 4300 miles now. Weight down to 12St 10lbs, still falling orf me. Started commuting to work in Holborn on it last month which is good for me cos its 40 mile round trip each day from NW Kent, only managing 2 days a week at the moment mainly due to me being a softy wooss-bag.
The 34 year old Weinmann front brakes finally gave up last week, an alarming amount of 'flex' was causing the blocks to clip the tyre under hard braking. Treated Aldous (the bike) to some Tektro long reach jobbies, yummy stopping power finally.
