    Are you suggesting that by following my advice, you'll end up like me... no-oh. that is not the bike I ride
    (I just like 'em.)
    -and I was an acrobat before I went to circus school-

    perhaps we should organise a lfgss acrobatics display team :S

    i'm no acrobat.... but if you wanted to show teach me some tricks im sure watching me get hurt would be entertaining.

  • why not... tricks n beer on a sunny day, perrrrfect let me know when you're up for it, and its sunny

  • maybe this is a bad idea...

    nimhbus hup!

    thud.

    No.

    lets stop before someone gets hurt... and blames me for it
    (damage disclaimer)

  • sorry but can't seem to find the answer through a search is the TK2 fork drilled for a brake ?

  • Yes- from t'internet:
    Forks:
    Felt Airofoil carbon fibre straight-blade fork with alloy steerer tube with brake hole

  • oh thanks how did I miss that

  • I ride a Fort track frame, no toe overlap.

  • Much as I'd like to make some witty remark regarding the Langster. I dont see anything wrong with them (OK not my taste look/geo wise).

    Personally I would start upgrading parts. You can really drop some weight this way, spread the cost, and transfer the parts to a new frame in the future if need be.

    I tend to make a rough plan of what I want (with sizes, threadings etc), and then sit and wait for things to come up cheap in bike sales etc.

    You could of course demote the langster to winter/ bad weather duties and buy a summer pimp bike (tiny tyres, no clearance etec.). In fact that sounds like much more fun.

    Remember the n+1 rule!

  • i bought a bowery to get up and running
    and now im going to build up exactly what smallfury said over the winter
    im gna get me a keirin frame and pimp pimp pimp

  • I ride a Fort track frame, no toe overlap.

    +1 Me too...

  • I ride a Fort track frame, no toe overlap.

    yes because you have a road fork on it!

    (and small feet)
