I'm after a pair of UK10 SPD shoes so I can make some frankintrainers for polo... If you got an old pair I'll swap for beer, and if anyone's done it before and has any tips a pm would be awesome...

I followed this and it worked.

anyone have a 21 or 22 tooth freewheel for sells? or know any shops that do em?

I think BLB does a 120 click one in 20 or 21t. Here's the link: http://bricklanebikes.co.uk/posts/393

cheers ben, they only do that in 20t. they have the 'superior' model in 22t which is only 30 clicks so fairly crap, I really want a 21 or 22 tooth though, anyone else got a 2nd hand one?

Hey Ben someone in Cambridge recently had a WI 22t freewheel for sale. If you want I could shoot him a message?

yes please! that would be awesome Luca! How much?

Not sure, I'll give him a text in the morning!

Hey bro!
bearings? Confused...
And you're saying buy this or the RS8?

Snoops, here's those ebay BB7's if you want a cheap new pair.

Hey bro!

The RS8 has the hollow 24mm axle with the bearings that sit outside the BB shell.
The RS7 you linked to uses the square taper BB.

Square taper BB's flex but not a noticeable amount. Shimano flex even less. But it's all tenths of MMs

If you plan on keeping the cranks for a period of several years then the RS8 will cost less. Good external BBs cost £15-25 where a decent square taper BB can cost £25+

Cranks that use external bb's tend to be two pieces, which means on one join to knacker, whereas square taper can round off in two places.

(I've knackered a total of about eight square taper cranks in about three years if polo, my deores were second hand and are still going after about a year... Probably not a problem for you though)

Also square taper Middleburns are about 100-150g heavier than the external BB versions

Go RS8 dude, external BB is stiffer and IMO easier to service!

Thanks Jimmy, Louie. Just piecing it all together.
No worries about servicing (even though will obvs go for external), I'm officially working in a bike shop and have the Park Tool master collection at my disposal. #tool porn #love a rainy day.

Go RS8 **X-type **dude, external BB is stiffer and IMO easier to service!
(They do square taper and ISIS versions of the RS8 too).

Don't forget to face your BB shell before installing. Make sure a qualified mechanic does this Jones, mainly cus they're expensive tools and you don't wanna be accused of damaging them!

ftfy.

Hey, anyone got a spare piece of corrugated plastic or a used wheel cover I can have/borrow? (700c)

I popped two spokes last time and it seems silly not to have one on as my wheel is only 32h.

Those tools ain't cheap.
