Any question answered...

Thing is I kept looking at the thread and had almost persuaded myself I needed it, thinking I could just switch all the bits over, but then when I put the 2 photos together I realized I'd need to change everything to get the build right and unfortunately I don't have time space or money for that at the moment.

never heard of bob malaysian

You haven't?

but it is so lovely, and it would fit you, and be stiffer than the argos...

The BJ would look great decked out in black modern parts for the track. Sugino, Ellipses etc.

That Argos is nice, and a nice build. But the Bob Jackson is proper special IMO.

"Bob Malaysian!" is the command he will be hearing when he earns the money for the additional bike

...from you.

Yeap, black 75s, low flange phils, grey tb14s, black nitto seatpost stem and b125s, a flite...

I can almost taste it.

shame about aforementiond time/space/$$$ issues.

even black omniums, the frame is beefy enough to compliment them

its xmas, treat yourself, and you have the time to spend on ebay etc to find the parts

Fine taste in rims. My new build's got them, in grey too. Very happy with the look, but not ridden them yet.

Get it bloody bought.

But if it's going on the track you want.

No?

CRC will sell you all the spacers a scoble could ever need for less than a tenner.

Ordered, thanks chaps.

Document wallets. Posh. Smart ones. Leather perhaps. Are they also capable of holding a 15"laptop?

They take my 13 incher but it's reasonably tight so I would suggest not...

Literally amazed it took 2 hours...

I'd like to run a Fizik Arione K:1 with a 3T Dorico seatpost.

Currently I am using a Ritchey WCS one-bolt seatpost, and I had to buy a special cradle as the rails of the K:1 are quite a pronounced oval, rather than the standard circular shape.

Is anyone running a K:1 with a Doric/o, or has anyone heard of this being done?

ProBikeKit say "no, it cannot be done", whilst Sigma say "should be no problem".

Cast your vote!

oh wow, thanks! but what frame is this from?

Possibly made by De Rosa for Eddy about 1981. Note the dropout treatment with the De Rosa points. Also, has signature seat stay caps instead of EM.

Im not putting them on my bike, im actually doing a small composites assignment and a subject i have chosen is the evolution of bicycles, and how composite materials have become so popular (using track bicycles especially) and i would appreciate it if you could just give me the answer im looking for, as frankly, i dont give a shit about what you deem humour as you are a bunch of numb skulled idiots who decide if somebody isnt an expert in whatever little knowledge you may have, they are a 'fool'.
Care to answer my fucking question without being so judgemental?

Mum?

"You're all cunts - please can I have something?"

I'm years from being able to, but eventually I would like to own a Rottweiler. Does anybody have any experience of rearing/training one?

My friend has one, its called kirk and he is the size of a small bear.

If he wanted to eat you, he could.

Dopiest dog ever, and has the turning circle of the titanic.

Precisely what I'm looking for. Stupid, yet slavishly devoted. He must also laugh at my jokes.
