^ Yeah
Really?? The area just gets worse..... :-(

You'd think that they would put it somewhere like Clerkenwell Road, Clapham Road, Baywaters, etc.
but oh no, it have to be somewhere in Brick Lane where puncture happen frequencely due to broken beer bottle and careless Chelsea boots.
fair enough, FGL is sponsor by Contiental.

It doesn't make sense though. It's like having an i-pod dispenser outside the Apple store

Did you realise that they'll simply buy the inner tube and go in the shop to get it fitted for them?

great idea, that. they should have them all over town IMO, with some levers in there too.

• #5564
Haha! Surely riding a bike should dictate the capability of fitting the tube/fixing flats by yourself? Or am I missing something?
-
• #5565
yeah, you are missing something. shops change peoples flat tyres all the fucking time, there is money in peoples ignorance.
not everyone always carry a spare tube with them and something like this would be useful at 3am

not anymore, we're living in a time where people ride bike not knowing how to fix a puncture let alone changing inner tube.

Only if you're in Shoreditch

We're also living a time when people find it acceptable for fixed riders to request chain whips and lock-ring spanners on the tools thread; snobbish self sufficiency is a matter of degree, isn't it? Somebody else will doubtless think I'm a pathetic wuss because I have to get somebody else to ream and face my head tube when I'm doing a build.

Ha true that way you could go on extending the argument till you reach "You bought a frame? Should have made one yourself" Changing flats tho is the ultimate basic of self-sufficiency nothing snobbish about it imo. Just making your life easier.

I want one in my house right now. Just punctured. On the f***ing rollers! Oh well, didn't want to do the rest of those intervals anyway...

Yeah! Which is why they should have them dotted around C. London. I started this thread a while back .. in a similar vein .. people would leave some old 700x18-25 inner tubes, some levers and some patches in some secret locations around London, known only to us forumers, leaving us with the means to get home in when all the bike shops are shut and you're stuck with a flat! Never really took off, though :)
