You might want to point Hugo at the home page for that image editor, otherwise he'll just think you're calling me a gimp.

Do all chainsets fit all bottom brackets?

Certain this is a dumb question but I'm awaiting delivery of an old Holdsworth frame and want to get the rest of the bits to put a bike together.

Any costume designers here?

Short answer- no.

Have a look at Sheldon Browns website with regard to this- a wealth of information there.

Ok well i have a mobria transportable mobile phone circa 1982 ive tryed calling antique dealers, phone places, looking up ebay and other places where vintage stuff gets sold but i havent a clue how much its worth. Now i know people have said to me "well its worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it" well this helps me not one fucking bit. Anychance you have come across one before or know of a place i can contact to get valued would help.

check for similar things in ebay under "end transactions"

There's a stall in Camden Market that does them for about £40-£50

£30 to £600 for the later Cityman, so presumably anywhere from £2 scrap value to £1000 for a mint/boxed unit if you find the right collector.

My dad was told by a customer of his that his transportable was worth around £5000 which i find increadable but to know where the right place to sell is hard.

Did the said customer write a cheque for £4000 on the spot? If not, he was full of shit.

Are you sure that was how the conversation went anyway? They were about £5k new, maybe that's what he was talking about.

do condor take phone orders? i only ask as they don't seem do internet orders

Is there a thread on this forum specifically about securing components by putting glue/ball bearings in bolts etc?

which internet provider people should I go with? I don't care about TV and I rarely download stuff but I would like Fast.

For non-cable, I'm not the only person who's been very happy with Bethere / BeUnlimited. Really consistent. You can pay for the landline via them too, rather than direct to BT. I think there's a thread about ISPs…

cheers.


my dad had that one.

It was a classic. The bass was three-dimensional, if you can believe that. I know it sounds fanciful.

did you have to wear special glasses to hear it?
