Brick Lane Bikes (BLB) Bike Shop

They do! I had one, it tasted like a vanilla milkshake, and the next thing I knew I was in a back room naked, racing on a stationary bike like the ones in Bellville Rendezvous!

Great film.

I don't get it, isn't £10 a normal price for a 15mm spanner? cause it's the same price as Condor really.

You can get a 15mm combination spanner for £3 from the hardware store 1/4 mile away on Liverpool St.

That said, BLB's £10 combination spanner has a ratchet head, which is quite a nice touch, and you'll always pay more for those.

What kind of sad fuck am I posting about fucking spanners at 11 o clock on a Sunday morning?

If it is a Campag tool, I'm getting myself down there pronto!

Condor have some of those Campag tools in their sale.

I'm marginally addicted to BLB.
The only problem is every so often they keep trying to steal my bikes. But thankfuly a police car keeps rolling past and I'm saved.

Ah you mean the normal spanner, my mistake I meant the ratchet head spanner that usually cost £10.

Please insert my obligatory anti-BLB coment here.

But really fred, don't be surprised about the guy's story. You know Yan is a wildcard at the best of times, surely you can imagine him trying to recover something while pissed only for it not to be what he thought it was?

Besides, they were at their most schetchy in the early days, before it had a location. Yes, I have known him that long, and yes, as far as I know he's always been at least slightly shady.

ja, ja I know :-)

Yeah it was the normal spanner, and like sharkstar says, £3 from Leyland... Not the main focus of my rant but it seems to have hit a nerve. :)

For a literally amazing service.

Use the extra £15 to buy a few beers on me.

Cheers.

shirly shome mistak?

Hey?

Wow a new BLB thread. It's been.. oooh 8 hours since the last one.. ffs

Ooh, let me- I went in there with a Unipack and they were rude to me.

Bastards, you should have gone in with your Fuji Track you would have got a lot more respect, that'll learn ya.

they're terribly rude in there though.

The BLB staff ate my hamster

Would this be your timid hamster that you were trying to show us at beers the other day?

well, there's your problem

One a those days, huh. Wal, a wiser fella than m'self once said, sometimes you eat the bar and sometimes the bar, wal, he eats you.

well, there's your problem

they're gonna have to get used it, there's truckloads of 'em round the East these days.

If summer 08 was all about the lo-pro, summer 09's much, much more all about the unipac.
