  • thanks hippy. that's as i thought but was worried disappointment / post bank holiday blues may be clouding my judgement a little!

  • What options (cheapish) do I have for 110mm -10 black stems
    Similar to the Deda zero.

    Cheers.

  • :) thanks! i am happy i dont have to cut my foot out!
    i am guessing the hammer was to make a small dimple on my heel to get more clearance, similar to chain-stay / crank-arm issues

  • Yes, it's your choice whether to adjust your foot or your brake caliper really. Either will work, but if you choose the former, you should sniff the superglue first...

  • You'll have trouble- I think most 110s only come in +10 rise.

  • anyone here from Rugby? Spending the long weekend there at a friend's place, will be taking bike if there is any decent riding to be done around. Ideally want two 30-ish mile loops for 2 mornings.

  • :) I will do what I do best...let it run like this and just re'adjust when needed! It's so easy with bb7.

  • I was wondering what the best course of action is.... Go back to the same shop and pay for an adjustment?

    You don't pay, just go in, talk to them about an issues and they should rectify this.

  • Give this a go.

  • Any half decent shop with apologise, get the bike in the stand straight away and put it right. Sounds like it should be straightforward.

    Exactly.

    Small tweak with screw limiter, and the brake sound like bedding in and just need to be re-setted.

  • Was tempted to stick this in the GE 2017 thread but id rather not risk the ridicule. Im not the most politically involved person to be honest.

    I was speaking to my father about this earlier and its left me questioning, as article 50 has been put into action, does that mean whoever wins the election will have to carry through with brexit regardless of whether they oppose it or not? Or can they halt it/stop it completely and withdraw article 50?

    Probably a silly question so Ill prepare myself for the beatings.

  • I've just replaced some bearings in my hubs and now the wheel feels a bit notchey. have i fucked them installing them, or do new bearings need to bed in before they're smooth?

  • Cartridge?

    So you'd rather risk the opprobrium which posting in this thread will draw? I assume there's a Brexit thread, and I assume that the question of invoking article 50 and then not leaving has been extensively discussed there. I'm not about to deliberately make myself even more furious by dipping a toe into those waters.

  • Aye thats the one, I presumed the criticism here would be a little less harsh.

    And not so much invoking article 50 and then not leaving, but more so invoking article 50 and then a new PM coming along that doesnt want to leave the EU. Can then stop/reverse the process or nah. Forgive me for being feeble minded.

  • thanks @edscoble and @TM, much appreciated - will pop in first thing tomorrow

  • I presumed the criticism here would be a little less harsh

    Nope. There are perfectly good threads where you can engage with treaty wonks on the minutiae of the Lisbon Treaty, so if you want to wrestle with pigs, head on over there at your own risk. You both get dirty, but the pigs enjoy it.

  • Do pigs enjoy wrestling?

  • Not if it's with David Cameron.

  • +1 for Angels. I go there for all fancy dress needs. I go there more than I care to think about.

  • Ask in the brexit thread

  • Yep. They did me nicely as Captain Hook! Thanks again @Aroogah
