i wasn't s.............blah,blah...... they've got those rear racks

the black one at the front and the green one at the back with the drop handlebars look adult size to me.
apparently the white mk3 at the back has already been sold.

Not too spinny – I live in Bath. I will let you know how I get on though.

work out the gear inches

I believe it's 62 gear inches. (53/17).

i got a question about chain length for my APB.

i have a 44 tooth chain ring which i want to REPLACE with 52 tooth
the chain atm is 58 links long.
does anyone know how much longer the new chain should be for the 52 tooth chainring?
oh, it has a 3 X 7 sachs hub with derailleur drive train.

my qustion is more about hub gears affecting chain length. or do you have to compensate for them in any way.
using an online chain link calculator for my set up 52 28 with a 19 inch chain stay I get 60 inches. hope that works.
thanks

Oooh, do you have your own forge? Bit of a roundabout way of doing things, but if it floats your boat ... ;)

@ OS Fixed it. If anything else confuses you let me know and I will try be clearer.

Ive got a beard so Im allowed to post on this thread, this is a friends AM7, made from 531, with a little suspension in the rear. Actually surprisingly robust, and chuckaroundable, way better than any of them flimsy modern folders, every time I meet this guy he surprises me with something else off the wall!

i am looking for a pair of useable mark 1 rear forks. if you see or hear of anything please let me know. many thanks

[0] yes, letter. he doesn't do this electronic stuff for work.

I'm glad that Moulton's can cost as much as £14k. Means i can always say to my beloved: 'well, if you think that's* expensive, just be glad I'm not one of those weirdos who collect "seperables"...'

(*i.e. whatever it is I've just bought less than £14k)

I'm worried that Moulton's can cost as much as £14k. Means i have to hope my beloved doesnt see a picture of kate moss or george clooney riding one and decide its the thing for her.

many thanks in advance.

bloody 'orrible things
bounce all over the shop,
feel like you have got flat tyres
can't stand up and hack away from anything without it going all wobbly
loads of nodders overtaking me.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

very strange after only riding a fixed for 4 years.

and thanks D.

Are you sure you're not talking about your Geekhouse?

I bought this recently and made a few changes, swapping the carbon seatpost which was too short and i also replaced the saddle, i added a long titanium seatpost, and a brooks b17 titanium.

It rides incredibly well, and is bloody fast!
For riding around london with its shit roads this is perfect, its nice and firm on the flats and takes out any bumps for a fast and smooth ride.

Will post up a picture later.

edit: link not showing pics but i will add some later.
