Bad Boy is BAD! Sadly, the price is bad in a non-hiphop way. Boooo.

That chap with the cyclocross frames informs me he has 'diamant, Randonnuer and ALAN' frames in small. Is anyone free over the weekend or one evening next week to help me reccy? I don't think I know enough to make a good decision. I will cook you dinner and/or take you to pub as payment?

Could be alright, maybe a bit slack and would need a tensioner once you change the gear.

Totally DIB'd!!! down London way in three weeks so will be mine if he can wait!

how tall are you Nate?
maybe he'd keep it for you if you did a small deposit or something

Could we get a friendly London based poloista to pick it up for beers?

Not sure how tall - 5'10" ish. I ride a 17" MTB now and it seems right but nowt to compare it to I spose. A friend will collect it for me if he isn't opposed to it leaving London.

Might be OK as you'd generally want it a little smaller, would be good to get effective top tube length, that's more important for sizing I reckon.

yeh should be ok then, get it!

oh also i have one of these you can have for free/beer:

Polo Rig for sale

My 16" DMR Trailsrar2 is now for sale. BB5's with brand new mission dual lever. Deore 525 hubs, hollowtech 2 cranks, BB, rear block & Shadow rear mech. On-one smoothie regular headset, steel forks. Jagwire cables. Has old Tiagra 9speed shifter so 1x9 (32x11-28) until you get an SS kit on there.

I will be keeping the peddles but can find something to make it rideable and also the bling red chainring bolts will be swapped with the ones from my SS rig so they'll just be silver steel ones. Otherwise it's as seen at polo on Sunday.

**Yours for £160 o.n.o **including 2 spare pairs of brake pads. Note - Victor has first refusal on this as he already made enquiries about it.

Also up for grabs...

Shimano 2011 SLX pod shifters (3x9 Dual release) 5 months light use. Mint condition £20

Polo mallets. both 93cm with black pipe drilled heads. 1x Rik using M4 bolt, 1x Perro using M5 bolt. Both only used for a couple of games. £6 each.

Now there's a polo deal, should keep the trailstar in the polo family.

It's a sad day, but sometimes you just have to accept your situation. I'd love to see it stay in the Mcr fold and get used. It's not that I don't love the game or the people but I was already aching after a game as it was. Money is going to be used on a mad project to stick gears and big tyres on my plug so I can at least get ridding again once things heal up.

Sad for you. Sad for us.

Can I have 2nd dibs after Viktor please? I'm not sure if this chap in London has a thing against northerners or summat so if I can't get his I'd be chuffed as hell with yours, and of course you can always borrow it :)

I'll have a mallet too.

If Nate want your bike sell him as I don't know how many time I'm going to stay in MCR. At least untill end of June, but not sure at the moment what I'm going to do after. My idea is buy your bike and then sell it again... and sell my actual shit bike.
But if Nate want it I think is better shell it to him.

I might be interested in your mallet as mine is nearly to dead!

Also we always can share it at the court if we don't play in the same game! ;-)

Looks like Nate just scored the 'bike of broken bones'. Can't think of a better home for it as I know it will be enjoyed :-)

Nate - I'll do you the bike and Rik mallet for £165. You'll need to help me get the peddles off when you call for it and change the bolts. Giz a bell on 07539 286 ohh double 7.

Victor - The perro mallet is yours for £6. I'll chuck it at Nate when he collects the bike, maybe sort money with him??

Give the mallet to Nate, he can pay you and I'll give the money him next day I see him?

Anybody got a way of contacting Lewis? He was after my big ring (ohhh err missus!)

Neil's mate? I'd ask Neil.

No, the dude you borrowed the mtb from. might have gotten the name wrong.

That's Lewis, not Lewis. Not got his number but he's on my facebook, Emma might have a phone number I think.

Actually he's not on my facebook, Emma might still have a number though, you want me to find out?
