  • The only bike places in city centre are shit - Halfords and Cycles UK. I'd go see Specialised (map link) but give them a shout first, they're always busy but I'd think they'd fit a job like that in.

  • Surely you just want any old mechanic to do it? Angle grinder to put on some new flat surfaces, then a spanner.

  • I will do it for beer! Easy life

  • mark if you're serious pm me your number and I'll shout you when I get in.

  • Pmd a bit late but holla at me.

  • I only got your PM when I got in last night! ended up hack sawing the nut off at home. Need to replace bb with a new centaur so will take it to the lbs tomorrow. Then the GT will be done.. for now!

  • Tomorrow, final clear out, plenty of free bike parts or very cheap. Whole box of drop bars for £5, Dawes mountain bike frame £5, Box of saddles £5 etc
    103 Earlham Road, just knock if not out the front.

  • Haha sweet. Glad ya got sorted.

  • Heya all,

    Pair of bullhorn bars, in black preferably 42cm or smaller. Can swap for a pair of Bontrager drops if prefered

    27.2 seatpost in black or pref carbon

    Front brake and lever

    Lockring for fixed cog

    18t or thereabouts freewheel

  • I have got lockring, brake, all sorts of levers, whatever ya need. Gimme a shout. You can pop over one evening and have a look.

  • I've got a brand new 18t dicta freewheel. Yours for a fiver.

  • prezet, I'll take it ta, PM me where and when is best

    Mark, I'll text you later on, I'm in the city on saturday morning if it's any good for you?

  • Should be fine mate.

  • In Norwich all week, city center - can meet you somewhere.

  • you in on weekends? As said to Mark, I'm in on saturday morning.

    Also, seatpost now sorted

  • Yep, will be in this weekend - although I'm out in Brundall.

  • Does anyone have the tools or the means of helping me fit a headset? I don't really want to order it online and then take it in a shop and have them fit it, not even sure if they'd do that.

  • I can get my hands on a press. Or just use a mallet/ hammer amd a block of wood. Also a vice will do it.

  • Would that be ok with carbon forks though? The frame is steal.

  • I've used a mallet/hammer on old frames before - no way would I do it on a new frame though.

  • Washers, 2 nuts and a piece of of threaded bar/m10bolt etc.

    D.I.Y headset press for less than a tenner.

  • Just what I've gone and brought on my lunch :) :) I've only got 1 washer at each end but should have got more really.

    Now I just need something to take the headset cups out.

  • Tried that way before with the homemade press - was probably just me but was a complete ball ache.

    Spence - I've just bought a proper press and remover. Should be here on Mon/Tues if you can wait. Swing by and I'll sort it out for ya.

  • prezet are you sure man that'd be awesome!!

    I've just gone and brought the DIY bits, less than a 10er you say? Less than £2 in my case!!

    I'll order the new headset (FSA Orbit XL) where about's do you live? Do you think we could have this replaced in one evening?
