So after all the issues with customs charges and dealing with tubs, the bike's finally on the road.
A pleasure too. I just need to switch the 14t sprocket now for a 15 or 16. Anyone have one to spare?is that a white and black 'gold finger' brake lever you got there todd...?
incidently I think them 'tubs' is ubercool tubulars got to be the way to go
lower rolling resistance lots of grip

It sure is. I wanted an all chrome Odyssey Monolever but they're Ltd edition and all gone. Was very pleased with the white Gold Finger. Nice with the bikes chrome. Enjoying the tubs too.
ImOnCrank: Yeah sign me up! Witcombs are a joy. You have the nice B&W right?

Todd Hey mate thought I'd whisper so you had a better chance of getting one before this lot pounced! Got it from Condor recently but they only had a few. Never seen 'em in white before. You can swap triggers too. Was thinking it would be good to have white with a silver trigger!!! You'd have to buy one black with silver, and one white/blk. You'd end up with one all black which you could sell. Good luck.
Thanks for the tip ..;)

Hovis Brown The Langster is the do-it-all bike at the moment, but it's ugly as sin. But i enjoy riding it, so i guess that's what matters.
The Langster was the only single speed I could get from my cycle to work scheme... having ridden it over the south downs (ok, I walked up two bits) and commuted for the last few weeks I'm loving this little thrasher of a bike...
I have a Condor Squadra too, but I can't be dragging that from East London to the West End each morning and night

Move to the south east hippy, much cheaper you would be able to get yourself a proper flat for less money and be closer to work. You know it makes sense.
