  • how much for a 1" threaded headset and fitting? my steerer needs cutting....don't think i can do that at home as it may need more threads added..

  • ^you can buy a tool to do it

  • Hey Dan. Can you order a set of Mavic Ellipse Clinchers at all?
    That'd be cool if possible.\Cheers

  • hey pistaboy. i'll ask one of the guys to see if we can get them on monday - i'm not in for a few days.

  • As ever my friend - quality.
    Cheers mate - have a good few days off.
    :)

  • yeah, they're in stock. if you want them we need payment in advance. 380 quid retail, minus a little discount.

  • That's great Mr. WentSkiing.... ;)
    Pay day arrives on Friday, so i may be up for getting some at the weekend.
    Thanks for looking for me!

  • Whoa.

    They look like badboy wheels. Light as f--k no doubt. My mate has Mavic wheels like them (almost exactly the same hubs but with a 9sp freehub at the rear, bladed spokes) on his cannondale... which he paid 200 for

  • I should add that it's a nail, it has a loose bottom bracket, barely any brake pad, and the wheels could do with truing

  • if he they are low spoke modern wheels he should really sort that out quickly.

  • He knows. But he;s a lazy fucker

  • in today: charge plug £500, charge plug racer £560, charge plug freestyler £530. should all be built by tomorrow.

    also, we now have powerlink b/bs to match our SRAM cranks, surly jethro tules, and tuggnuts.

    in further news, i just got some nice expensive tyres, and much to my surprise, they feel so much nicer than cheap tat. roll faster, grip more, and damp vibrations better. i will never have sub £25 tyres again...

  • not powerlink - powerspline. eeeerrrgh

  • what tyres were they Dan?

  • charge plug £500, charge plug racer £560, charge plug freestyler £530.

    Fuck me they've gone up- I paid £400 for mine last year. (Not to put anyone off OYB though, they've gone up everywhere)

  • yeah, loads have things have gone up, stupid weak pound type scenario apparently.

    the tyres are 24mm continental grand prix something-or-others which retail around 28 quid. a nice german guy rolled into the shop and handed them over for free, singing the praises of the black chilli compound. i thought it was so much marketing nonsense, but i was certainly wrong. i just wish they weren't so tight on my rims - i've pinched a few tubes already, raising the net price from free to a fiver.

    damn.

    i also got my surly dingle cog and stainless chainring, so i'm now fully "geared up" for a) offroad blasts around earlswood, cannock, etc, and b) gentle cruises with the missus.

  • Thats cool mate. I could do with having a look at those conti's. Might look good on those deep v's you built me....

  • I wonder if the black chilli compound is just standard tyre rubber with added capsaicin?

  • mmmmmmm spicy.......

  • gp4000 are the dogs danglies. Gotta love 'em.

    Where's OYB, is it central? I might have time to kill fri PM.

  • Mate - its at the bottom of my road - Bradford St.
    If you've gotta kill some time, you're more than welcome to drop by for a brew before hand. Should be back home from work for half four...
    PM me if you need to.

  • cool, may just do that :)

  • just in: half of a delivery of miche stuff plus some nice chains:

    primato hub sets, 32h, single-fixed. £55 off the top of my head

    miche 1/8" chains £6.95!

    a load of miche cogs with their nifty carrier system (1/8" and 3/32" available) - £13.50 each

    (sorry, STILL no miche cranks. grrr)

    however, we do have some absurdly glamorous KMC track/bmx chains - k710, hollow pins, machined plates GOLD: £42.99. SILVER: £26.99.

    that is all

  • whats the sketch with the carrier system? ive looked at it briefly, but whats the benefit of it?

  • Is this OYB as in On Yer Bike Charminster Bournemouth, is there a London shop now?

    Possibly some extraordinarily stupid questions, but I need answers...
