Hi there

New to fixies and been out of biking for a long while due to knee injury.

Got a second hand Pearsons Touche and wondering if anyone knows if the stock BB has any adjustment to it? My chainline seems a little out and hoped someone here would know as I don't get much time to ride at the moment (2x 8 week old boys) let alone working on the bike.

Also, any sizes and info on the stock BB would help for replacement

Many thanks and sorry if this is covered anywhere else (if it is I can't find it!)

Ha ha. Bruce, I have twin boys, but they are eight years now. Eight weeks is an intense period, especially with twins. Pop into your LBS, you have enough on your plate.

8 years! So does it actually get any better??? I've never been good with out my sleep, sort of like a stropy teen. This is just madness!

They say the first 18 years are the hardest.

Seriously. First three months is tough. Grab any early night you can. Schedule them to nap and eat at the same time. It gets better.

And enjoy them. And your bike when you get the chance.

currently going through a crazy feeding period with them. I still don't know where they put all this milk. oh, hang on, just found out!

Looking forward to them settling a little more and giving back in smiles and laughter!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
