Argon 18 Electron

hippy I know what Columbus tubing is, I meant "which bikes uses columbus"? Wasn't the comparison with alu bikes? Or do YOU have a Columbus frame?
Is the alu tubing on the Dolan Columbus? Is the Argon tubing Columbus Alu as well? Did Columbus really sail as far as he claims? Is the earth flat?

Thought so. Yes. Nearly. No, it's tinfoil. No, it's tinfoil with a posh name. Probably not. Flat enough for 49x18.

I like the fact Columbus calls its tubing 'mecano'.
Its like being a kid again, except much, much more expensive!

kowalski It looks like generic Taiwanese to me.

It also looks exactly like a Dolan Track Champion (£395)

Yep, it is similar, I had a good look at the 'track champion' a while back.

lpg i don't understand leeww .... you already have a bike ....

What is it you are having trouble understanding ?

Got the Electron frame set today, looks ace !

Piccccccturrrrees.

Soon, my Electron hungry friends, soon.

:)

lpg i can get this from America for fairly cheap

How much by the way ?

hey tynan, we should be bike buddies. yours is nearly as multicoloured as mine. (a photo will magically appear within the hour)

tynan add some links to that chain ;)

dogsballs tynan add some links to that chain ;)

Me no understand !?

your chain is right in the rear drops meaning it will be a biatch to take the rear wheel out with-out cracking the chain ;)

dogsballs your chain is right in the rear drops meaning it will be a biatch to take the rear wheel out with-out cracking the chain ;)

It's not quite in there (even though it looks it) it has a another 3-4 mm that it can move forward.

But regardless even if it was right in the dropouts with no movement left, the chain is flexy enough to allow me to derail it with my finger (I don't run it super tight).

And even if the chain was super tight and I couldn't derail it - it has a master link that you can just unclip and slide apart !!!!!!

And if it was super tight and had no masterlink and was all the way forward I could always just shoot it off with a gun.

And if I didn't have a gun I could just wait for the winds of time to erode the chain and watch it slip off.

And if time came to a halt I could simply philosophise that both myself and the chain are part of a contiguous whole and the notion of 'removing' the 'so called' 'chain' is not epistemologically sound.

See, there's always an answer.

this is also assuming that the bike gets riden, my guess it hangs on the wall with your complete set of mint collecter edition TMNT dolls in the boxes :p

as time is simply the human way of rationalising the passing of events, the fact that you are philosophising demonstrates that time, according to my own definition, has not halted, as your thoughts punctuate different points on a time scale.

You rumbled me.

asm as time is simply the human way of rationalising the passing of events,

'Passing' ?

asm the fact that you are philosophising demonstrates that time, according to my own definition, has not halted, as your thoughts punctuate different points on a time scale.

I don't think there is anything such as a 'time scale' - that is: a stage on which events are played out - it is, as you say, simply a way of rationalising (for me: more correctly 'registering') a change in the physical world, to that end I do not believe in epiphenomena, that is: only the physical exists, everything else being 'emergent' including time. Of course I could simply just stick a half link in.

hey tynan what rim is that on the rear? you 5x4 loving weirdo

billa hey tynan what rim is that on the rear? you 5x4 loving weirdo

DT Swiss RR 1.1.

It's not really 5x4, it's my girlfriends cheapo Casio point and shoot camera + a 5x4 large format boarder scan, scandalous I know ! :)

a fake 5x4 border, that's so wrong, at least it wasn't 10x8

MrSmith a fake 5x4 border, that's so wrong, at least it wasn't 10x8

5x4 and 10x8 are the same ratio, is it just the size that hurts ?

Here you go, for all you Photographengers:
