+1, no-one needs a half link chain. They're shit. The bend in the plates gets straightened out, putting pressure on the rollers, stretching the chain (actually kind of true for halflinks) and making a fuck ton of noise. If you buy a halflink we can't be friends. You need a halflink in a normal chain.

Halflinks do stay on even when ridiculously loose though. A bit strange.

ok so how can i solve this: I am running 32c tyres on fuji track 2009 which means I can just utilize only 50% of the drop out and now I am at the end of drop out, taking a link out would not work because of the tyre width so I thought if I had a half link chain removing half a link would be perfect, i don't want to change gear ratio or tyre width.
Edit: Half link in a normal chain, enlighten my thick brain now

That being so, I'd change my frame before using a half-link chain.

Is there a decent helmet camera thread on here, with tips reviews, GA2G style lists etc? I tried searching but all I get is Indra riding around on a double spok.

Awesome cheers, will have a read.

I was given a really small little camera as a gift, it's nowhere near GoPro standard, but it was very generous and I love the idea so I'd like to try and get the best I can out of that before I upgrade.

I'm reasonably sure Evans have a relationship with a 661 distributor, anywhere which stocks other 661 products should be able to add some supports onto their next order.
edit: see what you can find on http://oneindustrieseurope.com/ I couldn't get the dealer finder to work in Chromium on Win7.

Flying with Ryanair tomorrow, only taking hand luggage, my helmet can't fit in my small case, can I just carry it on?
-

Yes - attach it to the case handle. If they tell you to pack it, put it on your head.

I am thinking how big is a chance of him having a pair of left ones only.

Yes - attach it to the case handle. If they tell you to pack it, put it on your head.
and explain that you've watched too many plane crash movies, and it makes you feel safer. Tell them you even wear it in the car.

ebay or gumtree for bikes that don't sell "on here"?
No you don't.
