    Getting rid of this old 70s floor that's been lurking underneath the carpet in my hallway. The bits are all loose, the stuff around the edge is knackered but there's a decent amount in the middle that someone might be able to find a use for. Hallway is 1.2x6.1m, each piece is about 115x22mm. I wouldn't recommend burning them as they all have tar on the back. I'm going out to buy a rubble bag and if anyone has a use for it they can have it for whatever the bag costs me. I'm in West Ealing, W13. Cheers, Jordan

    Hey friends, dinked the shit out of my front rim and need a cheap-ish (£30 max) wheel to replace it. It's for a commuter so doesn't need to be fancy, just needs to be straight and roll alright. Doesn't need to be super wide either, running a 28 atm. In London in either Ealing, mile end or anywhere in between. Thanks!

    Hey friends, need some advice. I just switched to MTB shoes for commuting (specialized recon 1's, which, btw, I really like so far) and my endura waterproof overshoes aren't gonna fit over the fat tread on the bottom of these without exploding. I've also got size UK11/EU46 feet and skinny ankles, so the GripGrab neoprene ones I ordered which do fit on the shoes are baggy as fuck round the leg. Devastating. Mainly just need them to be waterproof, I'm not scared of the old winter sock/cling film combo to keep warm but I hate putting on wet shoes to go home, especially when it's cold. Been looking at the Sealskinz overstock ones, anyone tried them with fatty MTB shoes? Thanks y'all

    Looking for a set of 700C wheels for a beater singlespeed. As long as they're straight and they're not made of plasticene I'm in.

    Helped my friends gf buy him a bike off ebay for his birthday, it looked pretty deece but it's been no end of shit and now the rim has torn open like a coke can. Seeing as I'm responsible for buying this turd, the guilt is acute.

    Thanks in advance, appreciate ya

    My work are chucking all this shit out, so before I bin it I thought I'd see if anyone on here can use it (or knows anyone else who might be able to) before I sling them in the bin.

    4 x Sony EX3 Cameras, THESE ARE ALL BROKEN. They will cost more to fix than they're worth, hence why we're throwing them out, and before you ask I'm sorry, I don't know exactly what's wrong with any of them. There might be one good camera out of the four of them if you're a genius who knows how to do that, or they might be good for spares. Or you could use them as props and smash them up, whatever you like. They've all put in a big shift and they've got the battle scars to prove it.

    Loads of batteries, I think these would actually be worth some money but they're a nightmare to post and I don't know what condition they're in, so here you go. The red ones look like they're in decent nick. There's a few chargers there as well.

    If you or anyone you know has any use for this stuff, you're welcome to come and pick them up from me at Shepperton Studios. I can take them home to West Ealing if you can't get down here but I'd have to drive in, which only happens on special occasions, so Sheppy pickup is preferred.

    There's probably a camera forum that's the perfect place for this but I don't know what it's called, and there's such a range of expertise on here that I thought it was probably worth a shout. If you know an extremely low effort way I can get rid of these more productively than throwing them away, let me know.

    Happy friday y'all
