Thanks TALLSAM, the decal is HOT, I'm reasonably sure it's a sticker thought all the decals where put on after the lacquer and are quite thick vinyl I heard I might be able to get it off in one piece if I heated it enough, has any one ever succeeded doing this?
Just to elaborate (I'm trying to find out Something about a frame brought to England by a friend from Japan in the early 80's.... The bike was built up by a guy in Japan for the friend to bring as a gift.) This bike was give to my father by friend who carried the bike on the same passenger flight she arrived on. I have not bought this bike second hand, I know this bikes history from new, it has never been re-sprayed. The paint is a glittering metallic red and looks too good for a non branded frame but anythings possible. I did consider that the main decal was from the shop from which it was originally purchased, this decal is definitely to do with this frame ( I think BILL got a bit carried away with the whole Brick Lane cut and shunt theme ) like I said I'd really like to find out more....
HIPPY, would you like to buy the bike, I'll tighten up the chain for you.... It's weird it seem like the chain is stretching! is that like possible? Would you have tighten it up at 4.30 in the morning after a long week at work even though neither of the threads was about chain tension? Would my threads be more popular then?
Interesting tirade of pent up frustration, the way PAJAMAS is swinging that handbag he's gonna break a nail.... This emo rant is second to none specially the last paragraph "wannabe high school jock like you, aggressive in his ordinariness" PAJ read what you wrote dude.... And the bit about reading old threads, I remember allot of the threads starting with some new user posting an ill informed message and then getting the piss ripped out of them, using just as offensive language as any I've used? Anyhow I like the way you tell the readers you find my language offensive but make it clear you ant ChiChiMan yourself "I don't have to fall into the categories of fixed gear rider you think you have identified to find the language you use offensive. The fact that you think you have pushed buttons that matter or relate to people here shows how little you actually understand about the fixed culture here" Maybe you could summarize fixed culture for everyone. Again here you make clear your not the poor geek with social problems (god forbid) your defending "There are lots of people who have social problems who are geeks and probably do feel more comfortable with their bike than with a girl - and so fuckin what? Whatever makes them happy bell-end." and you say I'm the one with the ego. Right On
To clear things up the post wasn't about sexuality I'm sorry to anyone apart from PAJ who found it aggressive or bullying (There is non of that on this site)
