  • Woop

  • Or a happy baby dinosaur...

    That's enough reason to buy one, surely.

  • yes it is

  • I remember that. It was one of my proudest moments as I found about 6 of the bits.

    i remember you finding all the male parts and getting shit for it

  • Stop pissing on my parade you whoopy cushion.

  • Dino ouch...

  • You think a chainring bolt is a bad thing to use?

    Dud, does the pompetamine have a gear hanger? To be more precise can you add or remove the gear hanger?

    Its 135 rear end and got cable routing for gear hub. Is exact same geo as pomp as well according to site

  • So no then?

  • Stop pissing on my parade you whoopy cushion.

    Someone has to, now I'm not around.

  • It's called a chainring bolt for a reason? Looks good though, might give it a shot if my Pomp retires before I warrant a custom frame ;)

  • My old DMR jump frame had the same 'swopout' drop outs, with the same chainring bolts, and was perfectly fine in my ownership.

  • Apparently they are not chainring bolts. In any case having a slotted female bolt is a pain, still thinking ;)

  • about slotted female bolts?

  • Yeah... male bolts too... ;)

    about slotted female bolts?

  • no winky face? You love the male bolts

  • They are slotted nuts anyway.

  • I think I did that once

  • They are chainring bolts, Beagle.

    Think about the torque going through a chainring bolt, in every direction, thousands of times a ride.

    Then think about what the dropout has to put up with; Maybe 150% of rider weight in a crash, maybe 200, still a lot lower than the force you put into your cranks. And it's usually always in one direction.

    Chainring bolts are the perfect mass-manufactured (cheap) fastening mechanism. And as such, are used by nearly every frame manufacturer for holding on of mech hangers, replaceable, and movable dropouts.

    stop embarrassing yourself.

  • Woah!

    Serious sexy James rears his head again! :)

  • Yes, ph34r 'Embittened for not being able to ride my bike' Jimmy.

  • Thought that might be the case... Lot of pent up agression?

    I fear for your poor shop staff! :)

  • I'm not at work, which is a massively good thing. I have no idea how my missus is putting up with it! I don't handle being cooped up very well at all. Even though I shouldn't, I'm going out for a walk shortly... Maybe to the barbers so I can have a conversation with men about manly things like my beard. Yeah.

  • Actually Louis you just reminded me I have let the staff run riot without a checkup phonecall for a whole 2 days. Shit must be on fire!

  • My boss is off on holiday today, three people called in sick, one's working from home, two of us were late.

    Of a team of 8, 1 was at his desk at 9am (not me obvs)! We have a support staff of IT people, 7 of them in today, to support what is now 3 people!

    (this is also why I've spent the whole morning on the forum! :)
