Any question answered...

utorrent is my preference, vuze is a bit heavyweight and sluggish.

i rarely download these days but to be honest most people just use mediafire/rapidshare for music now, it's quicker, more convenient and there's no uploading involved.

Oh, a torrent of Ozzy's FLAC. He's rich already, right?

Track pump. It sits there next to your bike reminding you every time you go out that correct tyre pressure is a free upgrade to the ride and handling of any bike.

That doesn't seem to work for me any more. #jadedcyclist

did they make the Rolls Due in white? preferably perforated...

My arse is now getting on better with the Due on my road bike than the regular Rolls on the fixehhh.

does anyone know where i can get a beach ball in london? tried all the usual toy places but no luck.
i need a classic looking one with the usual white/orange/blue (or similar) segmented style

those tourist shops? they sell all shades of tat in them.

Hamleys?

Does this amount of pitting on its teeth mean I shouldn't use this cog?

Looks like its made of concrete!

tried all the usual toy places but no luck. i need to get on the tube and go strait to where they are in stock and don't have the time to go wandering about on the off chance i can find one.

also look in the swimming equipment sections of places as they're often used in pools.

party shop 2 mins away, stilted conversation with non native english speaker 'have beach ball yes".
i'm off on a reconnaissance mission.....

^^^ That cog looks like a dodgy casting or something.

Has anyone bought hand built wheels from Parker International recently? Are they good/bad? I'm looking at getting an Openpro 36h on black Shimano 5700 rear hub for £107.50. Good price?

Yeah I just pay £5 a month for spotify these days. It makes me feel less like I'm killing the music industry, and I get instant gratification instead of having to go through the whole searching and waiting game for every album, which becomes a drag.

I still download films and documentaries though. And the second season of Adventure Time oh yeah!

You fucking bastard

panic over, a colleague has tracked one down in muswell hill party shop.
local shop thought a kids football was a beach ball?

In computer programmer language how do I explain I want for example Levi , Levis and Levi's to return the same results in a search?
I've sent screen shots showing the difference but this didn't work.

"I want for example Levi , Levis and Levi's to return the same results in a search". If your programmer doesn't understand this, replace them with one that speaks English.

Is the Charge Spoon saddle based on an already existing design? I really like them, but feel that my bike needs something more tasteful. Currently I have a concor on there, but we're not getting along...

The rant thread had numerous posts on this i'm sure. Dealing with external developer who passes it on to an Indian company.

Go for the Knife instead, they're the same shape, just lighter and thinner.

If you're getting on well with a Spoon, then there's no point changing saddle TBH, even sumo's much loved romin may not be comfty to you.

I had a Charge Spoon, and a Charge Knife. I found the Knife had less padding and, for me, was quite uncomfortable. I've just ordered a Spoon for my new road bike.

Buy cheap, buy twice applies to software developers too..

I'd like to buy a portable HDD for pictures and films so I can plug it in the xbox and watch them.

Can I buy a USB 3 which will be compatible with USB 2 also? As in I can make the most of the USB3 speeds on my PC but it will read usb 2.0 on the xbox and macbook.

Would I be better off buying a portable HDD or buying a HDD enclosure and HDD?

USB 1,2,3 are all backwards compatible, buy a portable if this is your aim.
They are pretty cheap now, £62 for a 1TB from currys even.
If you want to use it on all 3 devices you are stuck using FAT32 so no 1080 rips because of file size.
