Names and faces to bikes

I'm in. Cwm carn?

few facts people.
1) these weigh a tonne
2) tyres are street tyres
3) can't run bigger sprocket on front as it wil hit the chainstay.
4) cruiser, not commuter!

so i should just stick with what i have?

What do you want to do tho, increase or decrease the gearing?

^^

Increase (i think).

I just want it to be a tad more forgiving i.e. not so hard on the legs, especially when sitting off.

plus once i get going the gear tends to slip alot (no sure if that's the right word) without going that fast.

..that would be decreasing the gearing.. get hold of a 17T freewheel, slipping could be due to worn parts / shagged freewheel / loose chain?
(Warning - Your maximum possible velocity will decrease slightly.)

You don't speak welsh?
I'll translate it for you; "I'm in. Your sister"

Cheers Murtle.

It was Ray who'd dropped me back down in the first place.

right, where is he???

In the bathroom rouching himself up. Apparently his employer was, once again, forced to chastise him for doing it in public.

I have a 24" Dr Jekyll, can i join in this ride?

erm........LCB, he's running a 36x16 which is spinny, i think he needs to go bigger on the front.

I take the term "forgiving" to usually mean lower geared.

Nice bike! you must post a larger pic.

I do love thin rims.

you look angry!

you look angry!

I'd be angry if that was the only response to my swarthy Gallic good looks...
(and my artfully-posed photo montage).

im just jealous you see...

here's my bike built so that there's not much i'd change. i got the frame, forks and bottom bracket from El Diablo for £45 which i was happy about. It's a nice sparkly black colour and rides really nice. I'm pretty sure it's a faux pas to run a 700 on the front but i havent got around to changing it over yet, and am not sure if i want to. Also i'm sure everyone has comments on the flat bar on a lo-pro but it feels good to ride at the moment. Everything is just taken off my old bike so it's not planned but i like it.

face is the same

I like the frame, I like it with a 700 in there.

That's lovely Fred... Nice job...

Definitely pretty, don't like the bars though. Think it needs to have the stem lowered and put some short risers on there.
