  Hi All

  A friend of mine has just had her bike stolen! Its her favorite and she's quite upset (as we all would be if our bike was nicked). So as a fellow biker and all round good guy i thought id post it on the best place so other good people can keep a look out for it?

  (UPDATE)
  Its a bright pink Draft SE singlespeed stolen from bow/mile end...hit me up if you see or hear anything on the vines of bikehood people

  thank you

  Had this app for about a week now and worked ok until i got 155 points and seems to crash every time i use it... Great idea but they need to fix the bugs

• How long do chains/cogs/rings last?

  in Bikes & Bits • 15 years, 2 months

  

  I ride 22 miles a day (monday-friday) and i change my chain about once every 5/6 months. But I'm looking for a good chain (any colours) if anyone could advise...

  I live not far from there and used both shops (Everything cycles and station bikes). But if your looking for advice on a fixed your better off riding down to BikeHub (new place) on lea bridge road or Heales cycles near hymes park station.

  Why do people keep calling fixed gear bikes a flash in the pan?

  My nextdoor neighbor (who kind took delivery of my fixed wheel bike) told me a story about how he used to race them when he was a boy! He looked at my bike and told me about cycle moterXcross and how the bikes where the same except his bike had one peddle...

  He said "they used to think it would not last long back then so i'm happy to see your still riding them"

• Charge Plug

  in Bikes & Bits • 15 years, 7 months

  

  I've got a plug freestyler! And apart from being abit pissed that when it turned up it had some shitty type offset under the plug sign...Its a nice bike. I never really wanted to build a bike (what for when you can buy one?) but now i've got the bug and now want to change stuff on my bike.

  I think no matter what bike you ride, you feel tight eyed when someone pulls up next to you on the same bike? We all want to be one-offs but then again we also have to start somewhere. Lets just stick together rather than spliting into builders and riders? Afterall we are disliked as it is... :P
