i heart aufbruch's avatar. and wilko johnson

but mostly wilko johnson

you been drinking Mark?

Put my old risers back on the Pomp, the ones I've been using didn't have enough rise and have been killing my spine... Dunno how that's gonna affect handling/playing, will find out tomorrow...

Also bought a booster for the back brake then found another at the HH jumble this morning for a fiver so I whacked one on the front as well... Next week I finally need to get my 3-speed rear wheel sorted, gonna go with a down-tube shifter on the seat-tube... Unless someone gives me a very good reason why I that's a retarded idea... ;P

And I'm gonna need some new cranks...

In the process of ordering my Marino, he's gonna do me some unicrown forks too, if anyone else wants any then i'm sure shipping can be shared

Mayeut is interested in a Marino bike last I heard...

you been drinking Mark?

yeah. sorry

any news on the booster yet?

Is that the promax lever ppl are using and will it work with normal V-Brakes?

^ Isn't it the same as the one I sold you Cowhen? If so, it'd be a short pull. But TS uses it for his V brakes and it works fine. I gave it up because I am shit at setting up brakes.

^Don't think it's the same as yours, ExTra... it seems to have the rubber grip on the lever, which Jono says marks the long-pull V-brake version. Also it lacks the triangular auto-balancing inner pivot thingummajig which apparently makes it hard to set up for polo, so that's good. Guess you could disconnect/remove the parking brake button. Cheaper than the one I just ordered, too... mumbles, kicks rock

Group buy? I need one (and I'm afraid of the german language)

Edit, actually at that price I'll take 2! :)

Hmmm, fantastic website. German or not I'm confused. Just ordered a lever and didn't pay anything. Maybe they will invoice me instead

Yeah, that's fairly normal in Germany, because most people pay by bank transfer, not credit card.

So will I get an invoice with the product with details how to pay? The email confirmation doesn't have any payment links.

I imagine it will come with the lever, that's how it usually works,

Depends on what payment option u chose.

There is:
-payment in advance (with note saying : bank details after contact???)
-payment at delivery

Ah I didn't really notice anything, just used googles automatic translate and filled in the details and clicked continue until it said done. Didn't ask me for an option how to pay.

This is why I'm afraid of doing it myself! Does it give you postage options for anywhere in the eu!?

Yeah I choose a billing address and a delivery address.
