Any question answered...

So I want an aluminium track frame with high bb and clearance for 32-35c tyres. Does this exist?

Dolan Pre Cursa tyre clearance?

A cross post from the house thread but does anyone have or know a solicitor they would recommend?

We're placing a holding deposit in the next few days with a view to exchanging contracts in the next 6-8 weeks so best to get them involve sharpish...

after reading all this stuff abut bike thefts in london, how safe is it to leave a bike locked up..?

For example my closest supermarket will be the sainsburys superstore in camden, say between 6-8pm would you leave your bike locked up outside there with say a krypto evo mini? or would you use more locks? or not at all

Depends what your bike is.

Is there a way that I can tell whether my Look pedals take Delta or Keo cleats?

Also...

Where can I get some white crocheted track mitts with white leather palms? I have a great black pair that were £4 on eBay but can't find their white counterpart.

delta pedals look bigger, and tend to be older.

don't know when they introduced keos, but they look more modern and take a slightly smaller cleat.

Do you reckon these are delta then?

Very unlikely. Too narrow.

I've just bought these Deltas from Jameski. They're noticeably wider.

Just did a little google and it seems that they might be Delta.

Was going to buy those if they were, but I guess it doesn't matter now.

go for keo over delta if you can.

These aren't quite white, but they're quite nice

Thanks! I'll give them a go...

Do you reckon these are delta then?

Yes, they are Delta, not sure which model. Aside from the obvious size difference, the distinguishing point which makes it easy to spot Keo in contradistinction to Delta is the step down in the pedalling platform behind the axle housing, where Deltas are flat all the way back to the engagement claw.

Can anyone enlighten me on what this is?

I think.

^Awesome, cheers!

Why does everyone seem (IMHO) to have such a low opinion of Leader bikes? Are they just seen as bandwagon fixie-wixies for morons or are they promoting bad practise or something?

Whats the likelihood of me getting apex levers to work with mini v's? I'm doing a 1000km tour in a few months and wondering whether it's worth upgrading my whole groupset, as cassette, chain and chainrings are pretty knacked.
