Thanks for advice on SRAM chain connectors earlier.
Not sure why I work on my own bikes, I am far too cack-handed and cowboy like.
Lastest cock-up = fitted new brakes onto carbon forks, did not use flat washer, used old skool serrated one. Now have carbon forks with small round teeth marks in it. Any need to worry, could this be the beginning of bigger cracks and issues?
thanks

Depends how deep the teeth marks are- I imagine that they'd just be in the clearcoat rather than in the carbon.

Does anyone know of some worldwide statistics for meth amphetamine use? I am particularly seeking to find out if it is more popular in the USA than any other country which it seems to be from how it is portrayed in the media.
surely it's difficult to get accurate statistics of drug users?
try asking on a drugs forum like bluelight.from what i know, what they call 'speed' in america is actually methamphetamine, not speed as we know it in the uk.

Very small marks Neil, but possibly into the carbon. Reckon I will get them checked just for my own peace of mind.

I'm not aware of Methamphetamine being called anything other than crystal, glass or some other synonym. Speed is distinctly not meth.

Taking "Breaking Bad" as a reasonably accurate work of American cultural fiction, Crystal is never referee to as amphetamine without the Meth prefix.
The different physiological effects would make a dealer who conflated the two quite unsuccessful.

coke/beer cans.

Beer can material is about 0.1mm, great for shimming.

fair enough, i guess the people i heard of referring to meth as speed were an anomaly.
agree with what you say about the differences obviously..

I was going to buy these forks of this dude (why is he neg repped?) and he tells me he's filed them down so his Chris King crown race fits.
Should I steer clear?Are filed forks dodgy?

Does anyone know a good place to meet in St James park?
And if so how to describe it to someone?

Behind the bushes.
You'll be the man in the rustling trenchcoat, and delirious grin. -

Or the entrance opposite Marlborough Rd.
Or Buckingham Palace.
Or the Horse Guards. -

Will I get laughed at if I use some TT base bars as bullhorns without extensions?
these are very tempting for £30. -

Best to wrap them in duct tape before going out in public.
The other answer is what are you putting them on?
Have solved my stripped teeth problem. Went to a job interview where the reception had copies of the comic and was offered the job on the spot. Clearly Karma was setting me up for the win.

Is proper SuperGlue much better than the cheap stuff from the pound shop?
(I am trying to stick plastic without success)
Thanks

same stuff, the only real difference is consistency - if you buy the more expensive stuff, you normally have the option of going runny or gloopy.
I fucking hate the little stiff bottles the posh stuff comes in too,
ftw.
Next to Fullcity on Leather lane. £6 a pop.
Did a decent cut for me, but I have a grade 1 all over. Not sure if they are good for flowing locks like yours. But they are cheap!
