    dia comp "gold finger" black 1 finger brake lever brand new never fitted £7

    Can meet at whitechapel area.
    pm me if interested

  • are you saying bike 14 damaged your hub? what did you do about it?

  • yeah im curious, tell us what happened?

  • well i was getting a new sprocket fitted and the ginger guy (dont know his name) was tightening the lock ring then all of a sudden it just spun and his first words were "oh shit" lol. i didnt follow up with the problem because i was converting to free wheel at the time so wasnt really too bothered. i know now il never go back to 14... ever lol

  • To be fair to 14, that may not be their fault. If the person who put the lockring and sprocket on before hadn't greased it well, then removing those could have stripped the threads a little and left it in a bad way for the new stuff to be put on. There's loads of things that can surface as an issue long after the actual mistake was done.

  • Pm'd on the front caliper...
    many thanks!

  • well it was originaly fitted at BLB so i doubt it was at their end lol.. i guess these things happen from time to time.
    as i say the hub would be perfect for someone wanting a good hub for a awesome SS wheel build

  • Why do you doubt it was BLB? Could have been them just as much as it could have been 14.

    Why don't you do your own bike maintenance?

  • lmao, lol, that's hilarious, ftw

  • BLB vs 14

    'FIGHT!'

    wheres Harry Hill when you need him!?

  • I thought this was a classifieds thread...

  • i bought the wheel build as a package and they fitted the sprocket at the same time.. i cant say for certain who's fault it is but god knows and he will punish those responsible lol.
    i have been told by blb that a new outer shell can be bought through them if your determined to go fixed lol

  • Do you have an automatic setting on your computer that puts 'lol' on the end of every sentence? You must be laughing out loud a hell of a fucking lot lol

  • dibs on the gold finger....can meet you even tomorow after 6oclock...
    pm me...

  • i have been told by blb that a new outer shell can be bought through them if your determined to go fixed lol

    Why would anyone do that tho'? Can't see it being much cheaper than buying a new hub... Bummer of a thing to have happened tho', no matter who's fault it was... I recently stripped a Phil... Mega-bummer... :[

  • Do you have an automatic setting on your computer that puts 'lol' on the end of every sentence? You must be laughing out loud a hell of a fucking lot lol

    It means "lots of love". scotti just loves you man, he loves you and this is how you repay his love. What's that say. lol.

  • It means "lots of love". scotti just loves you man, he loves you and this is how you repay his love. What's that say. lol.

    Shit man I'm sorry, I misinterpreted your internet acronym. My bad. Lol

  • it was soo hard to resist the urge to twat him with something when it happened :P
    from now on i do all my own work so i can only blame myself if anything happens lol

  • quick update.. the brake caliper and hub have gone, but the saddle, forks and lever are still on offer. go on make me an offer :P

  • pm'd on saddle

  • Why do you doubt it was BLB?

    Because if there is one thing we do do, it put copper grease on anything we can. We really like copper grease.

    Irrespective, if there was a reason to get a fix/fix Phil this is it.

  • Ha, Harry, that *is *true. Just trying to be fair.

    Reminds me, I haven't been in the shop since you've been working there, I'll be sure to pay you a visit soon.

    It beats me why anyone wouldn't get a fix/fix Phil anyway.

  • Save a few pennies?
    They like the way a-symmetrically dished wheels look ugly and aren't as strong?

    Yeah pop in and see me, it'd be nice. I'm only there fri-sun though. Come have a Lech or summit.

  • Haha

    Will do buddy, see you then
