i know you hardly know me so you have to scrabble around for things to try and slur my character with in your bid to "win" in your strange little world - but to mention the "episode" of my buying your sugino 75s as some example that i'm "tight" is a cheap shot and a badly judged one.. you offered me them in perfect nick for £100 and then proceeded to make a pig's ear of taking your old pedals off them.. you even started a panic thread about it, so clueless were you in this most rudimentary of all bike tasks...let's see if we can find it now...
http://www.lfgss.com/thread27895.html
in the wake of this thread and the battering the cranks had seemingly gone through during it it's true i did enquire as to whether the cranks would be as pristine as you had promised them.. and yep, there they were when you handed them over, scratched and chipped on the crank near the pedal thread you had clumsily set about. i still bought them and paid the price you wanted, which was i believe the self-same £100 you asked for when they were still on your bike, unmolested by pedal spanner and mallet. so let's be careful when it comes to calling people tight in public my talk-a-big-game friend... when it comes to me selling them on in the future it's your fuck-ups with your pedal spanner that will be devaluing them and which i'll be having to mention in the sales description.
my reasons for wanting the langdale to remain under the radar - it's wonderful that you can afford anything and everything you like without so much as a thought about whether you are getting the best deal for your money, and it's wonderful that you can buy anything you wish at a whim and never care whether you can afford it or not. I happen to be broke, and I'd like to try and buy a track bike that doesn't cost me more than it needs to. it's not "tight" mate, it's "poor". on the other hand you seem to be living proof that having money doesn't necessarily make you an happier.
Christ, it's true what people say, you really are a moany, whiny old woman! You had first dibs(I never offered them to you - if I'd've known you were that much of a procastinator I wouldn't have bothered!) on these cranks for nearly a month when I had atleast 6 people willing to pay the money on the day with no tedious emails
I met you and you asked atleast twice "Are they still £100?" having inspected them for 15mins and could clearly see they were fine. You then asked if you 'could have some time to think' to which you walked away with the cranks to discuss with your mate....finally coming back and closing the deal and making me feel guitly for taking your money! They were a perfect set of cranks(and don't start whinging about the tiny scratch on the inside of the pedal insert again!) that ALWAYS go for £100 2nd hand value - sold 2 sets on BIN ebay before both within hours of posting. They were a set of cranks FFS, anyone'd think you were buying a 4 bedroom house! -

You can use OldSkool Sugino BMX chainrings, you can still get them for £6 at Alans BMX but they've just got gold in 43t and 45t. The cranks alone are £71 at HubJub. I'd say that's a good price.

The advert doesn't claim the chainring is Sugino, just that the cranks are.
