Are all these your guitars?!

It's bad karma to own so many bicycles. You can give me the Salmon. Or the Pinsello.

I would subscribe to this thread :-)

:0 is a little drawing of me, mouth breathing and losing my shit over your lovely bike collection.

Ha ok :-) thank's !
It's just that I'm not shure about this bartape that's wy...

I love it. What is it?

I have a pair of Planet X 82mm carbon tubulars and i reckon they'd be better used on my roadie. Can the rear hub be changed into a road one? Is it as simple as matching the spoke count and finding a hub? Am i missing something? Never built wheels up before and won't be doing it myself just curious as to if it's possible (I'm 85% sure)

Yup, you'll probably need new spokes as well but that'll probably be handled by the person rebuilding the wheel. If you're in London I believe @arup (http://www.yogarup.com/wheels/) is a forum favorite.

Thanks for that!

@Gaston_Fr is still trying to solve the N+1 equation.

5x+6y=30
-2x+8y=80
8x-6y=20
The system is inconsistent and has no solution. Freeze is killing, be what you are stardust monkey.

All the best tapes are NOS alleycat prizes. This is a universal truth.

I love the old Silva tapes (and their packaging).

Just finished this. Love how it rides. Heavy but oh so buttery smooth. Can't wait to get it proper muddy

Crank condoms (crankdoms?) for getting dirty and staying safe. Genius.

I got that

@Gaston_Fr pictured it.

I'm wanting to put back on the original front wheel on my old Bianchi road bike that I use as a commuter, but am worried about having the front wheel stolen. Any recommendations on what to replace the qr skewers with?
