brilliant thank you, have some rep. next one is a scene i remembered about an evil bomb maker, i seem to remember his hide out being in a ship. His final bomb was triggered by a ball bearing rolling though some elaborate mechanism, kinda like a rube goldberg machine. I think al his bombs might have had bb's in.

Can't remember that one. The only films with boats and bombs that spring to mind are Speed 2 and Juggernaut. I haven't seen Speed 2, so might it be that one? Juggernaut is bloody brilliant, although dated now. Richard Harris and Roy Kinnear, together at last!

ah sorry i forgot to say an abandoned ship, but te more i think about it the more i think it might be a warehouse

I think it was The Seventh Seal.

Mancini looks like a stiff-armed nodder with too much money to burn. Brings shame on the nation of Il Campionissimo.

Larson strips are quite difficult to get hold of. Where did that one come from?

I find there's an increasing number on-line and you can usually get them if you Google about their content. Of course, spelling his name correctly might help. :) (I know that Google takes care of this these days.)

**What **frame is this? [picture snipped]

Maybe a Giant TCR?

Well, what do you know, the stickers all over the frame were correct!

Giant TCR Advanced, Soul C5.0 Wheels, Sram Red.
Weight = 6.22kg (13.71lbs)

Ha! What a mong.

Somehow I managed to completely miss that one - I just thought it said Giant as well.

Strictly speaking (although I realise these distinctions are considered pretty weak nowadays), you didn't ask the question correctly, either. 'What' here would normally ask about the kind of frame, e.g. 'a carbon road frame'. 'Which frame is this?' would have asked for hippy's kind of answer.

do you pair your socks up?

Only after it was me who washed them.
My wife only returns one sock from each pair.

BB lockrings are generally a larger diameter than fixed hub lockrings so you might find it slips off

Thanks

Any cheap lockring spanners going cheap?

Wheres a good place to take a carbon wheel to have it confirmed that its buggered? Will evans just scratch their heads or do they know about this sorta stuff?

X-Ray dept ?

Does anyone know anything about evil bikes? I can't say I've heard of them much at all.

I'm looking for a track frame, well I suppose a path frame since I'd like it to accommodate mud guards and this frame sprang up on wiggle and It's half price at the moment;

It doesn't look incredible but I think you could make quite a nice bike out of it.

half the price, no guard mounts, but there are solutions to that.

Triple Triangulated goodness included....

would only buy on the basis though that the decals aren't laquered over.

I'd only go for something like that if you could take the decals off like you said. But then it goes back to having no mud guards and with something like that I doubt you'd have much clearance for them either.

Me again.

After my tumble the other week I need some forks, my question is what do I need to measure before I go asking around the classifieds.

So far I have
Straight (Although not necessary I think)
1 1/8"
Black
Cheap
?

you need to measure the length of your steerer... don't do a Tenderloin...

What about offset?

LIke these?

you mean rake?

never thought it was something you needed to worry about... i may be wrong though.

is it for a road bike?

Yep road

Why can't I see any pictures that Dammit posts, well I presume it is pictures for example posts:

Are you over 18?

How about something like this then? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EIGHTHINCH-SCRAMBLER-TRACK-FIXED-GEAR-FRAME-55CM-WHITE-FIXIE-FRAMESET-/400248707257?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5d30ae98b9#ht_3583wt_942

Actually has fender mounts too, comes without the decals applied. Doesn't cost the earth. hmm I could be on to a winner!
