Brighton Hard Court Bike Polo - Official Thread

Train works too.

could someone send me a sweet link for some tasty shingguards/kneepads (the joint ones sean's got)
also contemplating some elbow pads as well.

I have these

Also if you are still rocking the fixed let me know and you can have that 24t cog, Just come and pick it up next week. Just dont rotafix too hard or you will strip the hub.

I might see you boys there on Sat if I can get there. I will be throwing in with the rest of 'em. Sunday I have previous engagement though.

Shit the bed i've gotna brake and lower gearing.chris can you bring the mallet head on sunday .see you all there.

yo! Brighton, you guys are ace. I want to come play next week (play will likely be a euphamisim for fall off alot) but hell yes!

@matt - I have 2 weeks left of training hun, sorry i didn't get back to you about the flat - I would have loved it but when i realised i had no interweb and no number for you it was too late. x

Yes, Jaqui!

I'm not going to be playing on Sunday, Bird. I can safely predict that I'll be in no fit state!! I brought the head with me on Wednesday. Will try to remember to give to somebody else who might be there.

Thanks man.have a great party! See you wednesday!

I got paid! Woo! Now, which polo bike to buy?

Sillgey Piccolo - so cute.

It's confirmed!

All we need now is teams!
Whilst it already looks like being an awesome weekend, the more teams we get now, the more sponsors we can get on board, hopefully with some sweet prizes!

Sign up on the thread, look us up on Facebook, or drop us an email at soyopoloco@yahoo.com

Look forward to seeing you there!

Great NEWS!! ps. the italian one!

Lordy lordy, it's Sunday again. Polo from 1, who's game?

see you there (might be a bit late as got some technicals to perform)

I'll be praying at the church of polo from 2ish :)

I just emailed Riding In Circle about a polo frame! Fingers crossed I can afford one!

dice you not tempted by the Pompino? they're only £130 at the mo!

Yeah Woody man, I am tempted by the Pompino. I'd just rather not ride 700s, I'm quite crashy and they just don't stand up to a beating like a 26 or smaller does. I'd have to get all the rest of the bike anyway as there's not much worth keeping on my current bike. It's only a question of time and money though!

Just took delivery of 2 meters of yellow pipe if anyones in the needs some

Really good point, i have enojyed being on 26inch wheels,. so much cheaper to get the parts for, get so many cheap good quality secodn hand oens without the hiptster tax for, and stand up to a beating. whats the RIC frame like?

i'll have a bit please pick up tomorrow?

thats to josh.

I think I'm falling for the Sillgey Piccolo Danny. It's as cute as a button as you rightly say and if it doesn't work out for polo it'd be an awesome town bike. I'm making enquiries!

Thats cool thom, let me know o753three zero76 47four

Here's the RC Polo frame - http://www.ridingincircle.it/?s=polo+frame - It's pretty sick but it's 50% more spenny than the Piccolo for the F&F.

Upon further investigation the Piccolo is track/road 120mm spaced at the rear but BMX's are 110mm spaced so you can't just use any old BMX wheelset. Building a nice hub into a 20" is probably the way to go.

Get the RIC frame and forks, you know it makes sense. Check that badge out!
I've got a magazine with a review of the piccolo, for polo purposes, i'll give you a lend of it.

What do you lot think about these? http://www.burrobags.com/store/bike_polo_wheel_cover
