id be interested in these fin, if your at polo on wednesday could you bring em down so i could have a loook?

sure thing

Anyone got any drop bars that will be compatible with my quill schtem?

Anyone got a fixed sprocket 17t 1/8", its for a Campagnolo flip hub. The old girls going fixed again. Would love a nice coloured one but none of those Halo ones thanks.

I might have a miche one, they are an acquired taste though as they have a bit of rock in them. Not good for the "tight chain-zero play" brigade.

hello all.
I can't really put my heart and soul into polo until i find a bike that is suitable, so i'm after your help. If you happen to come across anything around the 52cm - 54cm size that is in reasonably good shape, please hit me up. I can't really afford the time of building one up at this time cos i need to get going ASAP.
Any help on this would be very much appreciated. Cheers in advance.

I can put one together for you out of a mountain bike if you chip in for parts.

We could actually share it as a polo bike as I need something more polo suited.

I have a biggish old marin rigid XC bike and a small halfords alu mtb I used to ride to college. Both in semi working state which I havent touched/do not use. You'd fit on either.

Cheers for the offer mate, but I'm looking for a road frame, but also something of my own, as I'm needing something to progress with - quickly! That's very kind though mate.

pics of the marin?

pfff, fashion!

An mtb frame would suit polo way more. Easier to track stand, even with freewheel.

yeah, but massive gap between the wheels. i reckon mtbs make sense for shorties, but tall people would need a massive seatpost, reducing the benefits of lower centre of gravity

and who said anything about fashion? I simply prefer the slender tubes and position of a roadie....

I'll be getting a 9:15ish train from Cradley or Stourbridge Junction. The train runs from Moore St/Snow Hill line to Kidderminster/Worcester. Takes about 40 mins from Birmingham tops.

Hi guys quick question,
does anyone know this webshop ?
was looking for a new lock and this seemd too cheap to be true for the
Kryptonite forgetaboutit mini d-lock (56 quid):
http://www.google.co.uk/products?q=Kryptonite+New+York+Mini&hl=en&aq=f

or should i just go for the kryptonite evolution mini d-lock ?
same web shop for just 28 quid ?!
usually its close to 40,

any recommendations ?

dibs !!
as it happens a mate of mine just nackered his wheel and needs a new one :)

does anyone have a road frame that would fit someone who is 150cm tall? or does anyone what size that roughly translates to in (road) bike sizes? thanks

pfff, fashion!

An mtb frame would suit polo way more. Easier to track stand, even with freewheel.

wise polo master

Loads of old steel frames in coventry you should look at. Good condition and CHEAP!

Hyper - can i get second dibs on that rear wheel pls? Badly need one for the new polo bike. Oh yes. Its coming....
Cheers in advance!

Fluted/aero seatpost. 27.0 Made in Italy. £15

Has anyone got a suitable polo crankset they'd like to sell on? Could be a road crankset that i can strip the outer rings from. Ideally the smaller the better.
Thanks in advance.

I have a set of the older miche primato cranks fo sale.
165mm
135bcd
come with a 48t ring

£30.

I already said Im having those cranks as long as they are not too fucked up. We just need to meet up and do the deal!

OK, well, like the good T. Tibbs says "TALK TO ME" because it's pissing me off having them lying around.

X-ion mtb clip shoes, size 9UK (43EU) - not pristine but not overly used.
27" front wheel, with almost new front tyre.
Planet-X carbon seatpost.

First two are worth beer money at best, seatpost is apparently worth £90 new
