^ Steel 2011 or Alu 2007?
The stickers on the steel one will come off with a hair drier and some patience, the alu ones are under the lacquer, so off to armourtex you go.

Much better idea ^
To desticker my steel one (if that's what you have?)I picked it off, but then there is that gross sticky residue left on it. White spirit/ a solvent called 'sticky stuff', which is what I used, works a treat

I would like a Langster, 58cm for preference.

Want to buy a well loved '08 alu frame in green needing a new headset, but fundamentally sound?
EDIT: it's a 58...

I've got a Langster Steel (SS) that I'd like to add a rear brake to - it came with the front brake but missing the rear.
I've been trying to find a brake but getting nowhere fast!
Anyone got any recommendations for a brake, lever and brake cable guides?
I've only found these guides - Wiggle | Dia-Compe DC Cable Clamp Silver Brake Cables but would prefer in black.

New front brake and chainring.

Oh good, that mean you can put the old one on the back after all.

Fuck it. Here's my langster. It's outside, behind a fence on a roof in the dark with 1 brake and no handlebars, stem, saddle or seatpost. And the front wheel is backwards.
Its safe though because I just wheel it round and make brrrrmmm brrrmmm noises to get away from my parents and homework. I do wear a helmet though, and have a brake caliper round my neck as a pendant.
Has that got Gangsta Track V1 forks on it?

Nope, Langster's alu fork.

Huh, I quite like it! Did you get it powder coated then stick some decals on the top?

Looks nice. Well Done
Soo... how do you use both, rear bottle cages, on the rollers, or when travelling at the speed of light ?
Water in One, Iso drink in the other, or a tool-kit ?

I generally use one for caffeinated electrolytes and one for regular electrolytes.

God damn I love that pink Langster. Almost as good as superjoe's pink Bridgestone.

Pretty much, ended up painting it myself. Couldnt get that colour in powdercoat and no one local to me wanted to blast the chrome off, then yeah got some decals cut and stuck em over the top. It didn't look quite right plain

Thanks.
The bottle cages stay on at all the time, whether on the roller or on the street.
Usually water in both, but when I do switch it up, one will be water and the other will have Optimum Nutrition's Amino Energy stuff. When I do ride out on the street I have a lil Bontrager bag with spare tubes and stuff.

I like it too, just don't like the seat angle.
has anyone attempted to de-sticker one of the chrome langsters?
