  • who owns that red fixie always leaves it outside M&S in the City Centre.
    RED FRAME, with chrome forks and drop outs?

  • My first "DO A SKID" ....

    Shouted out by 3 lads outside HH - One of the guys I recognized works (as messenger) for a graphics company up near Piccadilly.

    Didn't want to break my stride - So was unable to comply with there request.

  • I cannot tell you how much I want this bike in the snow. Look HOW AWESOME IT IS.

    it's even called 'BOSS'.

  • haha, i see that bike quite a bit. the rider always seems happy. IT IS BECAUSE HE OWNS THAT BIKE.

  • ^ i've seen and told the rider how cool i think his bike is before, he's often around whalley range.

    Spotted xmas day, green/grey raleigh conversion at chorlton water park, i said a shy anonymous hello and mumbled a bit then went back to duck feeding while you were waiting for other riders, one of whom did a great 180 skid on arrival... Hope you had a good rest of ride.

  • 3 days ago, monsieur lantern rouge, mpg paul and myself yelling "do a skid" to darwin...

    we were ignored.

    this led us to believe darwin cant skid.

    so darwin, can you skid?

    I can skid every colour of the rainbow my friend ; )

    But being shouted to perform such a task – make me feel a little uneasy. So I thought I best thing to do was to power thru & get on with my life : )

    Next time I will try to overcome my fear of authority & comply ; )

  • if someone says do a skid, you do a skid! otherwise your damaging the indignity of the do a skid system

  • every time you dont do a skid a kitteh dies.

  • @ darwin: getting on with your live is the future

    doing a track skid just because three bitter grumpy old men yell at you to is not

    but eh, a kitten died...

    On another note - You work at HH right ?

    How much do you guys charge for wheel builds ? ( for a pair )

    Will the builder include spokes / if so can I specify ?

    Thanks for the info

  • @ darwin: guy rankin is building wheels most weekends at harryhalls.

    £30 for a wheelset

    excluding spokes. he normally uses dt double butted stainless. silver. he doesnt build with black spokes as, in his experience the coating makes the spokes a little brittle. he builds for longevity, not fashion :)

    what hubs/rims/lacing?

    i cant express how good a builder guy is...

    if you phone the store, speak to me only... otherwise pm me
