Polo Bikes

Some confusion on the size so a second opinion from a pomp rider would be handy.

The guy on eBay is 5'10 and selling his 52cm bike, says it's suitable for 5'7 - 5'11.

It sounds a bit small for a 5'10 person and isn't on Max's size guide (presumably from the website?

It looks like a medium. A bit bigger than adrienne's small - which I'm looking at now. If that's the case, it would be a pretty good size for someone 5'10" for polo.

So a medium is 54? Thanks M. Will keep bidding.
Just noticed it doesn't have any v brake bosses though, meh.

M is 51

Ha, in the listing it says it's "customised"

Dude just took them off and taped over it!

don't buy it without v-brake mounts

unless VERY cheap.

This. kinda defeats the point of buying a pomp if you ask me

(not that anyone did..)

He's advertised it on gumtree for £320. Dreaming.

If it stays at that price, then I'll get new forks and a brake mount which is fine, but looking like we'll could be going for the frame and build option.

Cheers guys, 'preciated.

Does anyone sell pompino frames and forks, and maybe a headset installed too?

I've got a set of blue pompino forks for cheap if you need. Long steerer. Someone will fit you a headset for free/beer.

Has anyone got a spare left hand v-brake lever and if possible a brake too?
Also, long shot but I know sopmeone will have, I need a 42 tooth 144BCD chainring.

I've got a cheap decathlon lever which looks exactly like the Avid 7's but without the branding you can have.
Assume you mean V brake? If not I've got a few callipers for £5.

Definitely v brake, that'd be perfect. Thanks.

what are you making em?

A friend had his bike nicked, I'm trying to get him on the road for as cheap as possible using my DMR frame as the basis.

Not sure if we crossed wires, but I don't have V brakes sadly. I can bring the cheap lever tomorrow though if you want it Em.

I know. I need a brake and a lever. You've solved half the equation.
What time will you be south tomorrow?

Unelss it's early I may have to meet you somewhere on Monday if that's cool.

Should be there early doors, 10ish, or I can have at work at Old St. Monday or whenever. I'll just leave it in my bag. No worries.

Lets make in Monday.

Done. Same place as the seatpost swap, 9-5, let me know when outside.

Good luck with the other stuff!

i'll be at souths all day. you can leave the leaver with me if you want to have it tomorrow Em...

Wicksie, I don't get out of work until 18:00, can you pass the lever to Turd.

Dude, I'll arrange a meet up with you early next week.

Done.

Whilst I'm here. Where do y'all get short run t-shirts printed?
I'm assuming no-one else will be wanting a Rusty Rims t-shirt so only want 3!

Depends on the design!? :)
