Too true.

I bought my sister some of that cinelli zebra bar tape, looks great but lost it's 'whiteness' within a month or so.

Vim is apparently the answer.
Or GT45 on a rag with a washing up liquid followup.

Or just buy black! Lol.

The Fizik tape I am using is really good. Super strong. Unlike cork tape, it seems to be made of some sort of material (e.g. Cotton, nylon etc.),

Bullhorns bought, went for the Nitto's...

Dans got Nittos. Reet feckin noice!

RB-019 or 21?

Oh, I bought a bike today. No idea what it looks like mind. One of the Forum staff approached me and Donny on Friday and said he had a 23" 531c road frame for sale. Texted him today and he wanted £50 for frame, forks, headset, bars (no stem), b/b, cranks (no rings), seatpost and saddle. I say yes.

Well my lock has well and truly had it... Just borrowed some money off the wife and ordered an NYC Fahgettaboudit for £55. Chuffed!

Dan, I got a stem at mine you can have if you like. Also if you are building it into a racer, Doms got some 70's Campag wheels...

Oh and Prezet: I use this Fizik Dual tape:

Got the RB018 in the gunmetal finish... That Cinelli bar tape is sweet, but I can't find anywhere that's stocking it yet, so will prob go with some of the Fizik Microtek.

Plus I'm hoping the BH's will stop this sodding pins and needles I keep getting in my hands...

Were you just using risers before? Could also be something to do with the bartape you are using. I used to get pins and needles when I had my Deda Pista Drops on!

Just running a set of flats with a low rise and bmx grips.

pow

Ding, fucking, dong - that's the shit.... anyone knows who's stocking it? Google doesn't know shit.

I thought I had seen them in black. Sure I spotted them on www.prollyisnotprobably.com looking like that!

Plus I'm hoping the BH's will stop this sodding pins and needles I keep getting in my hands...

Try and get your positioning on the bike spot on. You should have pins and needles if everything is set up perfect.

Has anyone got a crankset for sale I have snapped my drive side crank arm :(

Oooooh! That sucks! Nah affraid not. Check out www.velosolo.com. They generally have some cheap stuff on there. Or eBay do some Driveline ones with a BB for £40. They are just a Sugino Copy!

basically new to this site, so jst clicked the reply hopefully sum1 will end up reading this, i was wondering if any1 knows if a new style seatpost would fit an old Hercules saddle im guessing it will but i want reassurance like an alloy one, also if any1 has got a 25.4mm seatpost quite light which wud fit it im open to buying it 4 sure but its gota be silver alloy no colour, and has any1 also got a mavic ma40 36 hole rim which is nice cond. im asking a lot but wot the hell haha !!!

this is still the norwich area right!?!?

700c b.t.w !

and am really looking for a shadow conspiracy half link chain as well 49 links max, holla people!!!??

If the saddle has rails most seatposts should fit fine.

Welcome btw.

Also, I'd stay away from the SC half links in my experience they're shit. Would look at the KMC half link.

okay prezet, nice1 for telling me about that, and the hercules saddle does have seat rails on it i just thght that mybe the older the saddles the mre wide apart the rails may be, making it uncompatible with modern ones, but i take ya word 4 it, furthermre do you knw of any places whr i mite be able to pick up an old (nos) freewheel in Norwich like maybe a TDC or phillips as im trying to keep my old racer almost all ENGLISH (british) haha.
