Any question answered...

Yes. It's glorious.

Is that a case 'never knowingly undersold'? Where did you see it that cheaply offered?

I probably meant a netbook to be honest. Not good with terminology sincethey introduced the fancy 486 chips.

Thanks all for your suggestions

Cross post from the Berlin thread, but I'm pretty desperate.

Does anyone know anyone in Berlin or London who has a Koga Full Pro Track?

I'm in Berlin for the Rad Race Fixed 42 tomorrow and somehow my seatpost collar has gone missing along the way.

If anyone had one I could borrow I would be eternally grateful. I could collect one in Berlin or there's a chance I could get someone in London who's coming tomorrow to collect it.

Größte Danke im Voraus.

There is a Decathlon in Alexanderplatz, would you be able to get a part there?

Or try one of these places?

It's a proprietary part that's only on Koga track bikes apparently, because it's a weird angled seattube with a thinner than usual diameter a normal seatpost collar or a bodge method probably won't work and might fuck it up. Argh.

If you can't fix it with cable-ties and gaffer tape, it's not worth mending.

It's not a fix though it's just a missing part.

Aaaaaaaaargh fuck.

Yup - I was talking to the old boy on sales there checking it wasn't a typo. Otherwise identical 64gb version was £250! Seen in-store in Peterborough.

Couple of questions:

Forum approved Ti bottle cages - suggestions pls.

Deda RSx01 seat post has a bolt which you access from above. Fine with a saddle with cut out - looks no dice for the Arione sans cut out. Any work around or is it a new seat post if I want to have that saddle on that biek? Tryin to keep all the Ti bits together...

Thanks

Chas

Ti bottle cages

King Cage?

Yep, they look the part. Definitely under consideration. Also currently winning the spenny competition at fifty notes....

Straight bar grip suggestions plz.

For a MTB that doesn't see any serious action.

The "nice but not too pricey" option.

Is there a homebrew option instead of an Octalink plug (to allow the use of a standard crank puller)?

Pound coin?

5 pence piece I think is what I've read before?

A bit of goggling led to the same suggestion, or a 1p as it's a little wider.

However here's not enough thread to allow the puller to engage safely with two coins and one coin doesn't cut it...

Or save money and buy the stainless versions.

Why isn't there anywhere that sells Saturdays papers on Sunday for the busy or the forgetful? I MISS U GUARDIAN

Forum approved Ti bottle cages - suggestions pls.

The Planet X ti bottle cages aren't bad. Not as good as the King ones, but for 15 quid each they're pretty good. @Cycliste has some on her 'dale, and they seem to do the job.

What's the cheapest way to get a van load of stuff (moving out of my studio) from Bristol to London in a couple of weeks?

In a van.

Bit of dowel cut to the appropriate length (pushing against the crank bolt on the other side)?

Good idea, but too much effort for someone else's bike: they can just buy the plug already.

I'm already down 1p.

Does anybody know how to stop a seatpost with internal "guts" slipping?

It's one of these ones:

http://bmxmuseum.com/forsale/92915

It rotates backwards after a while. I can't get in an inner tube, all I can think of is an alu shim. Should I get new "seatpost guts"?

Carbon assembly paste?

What's the name of the clip/nut/spring thing that goes where the red circle is.

It's for a piece of shit/weigh a fucktonne/off the peg kids bike so don't want to spend anything over one english penny.
