especially with a trixie tool screwed on the dt>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hey, don't take it personally mate, we've all had a bit of hazing for something silly at some point too! ;P
edit: God that sounds patronizing!
I really appreciate your honest post. I wasn't overly offended by the comments, just annoyed that some people seem to be more cheeky on the keyboard then perhaps in person. Human error is natural and learning from mistakes is essential...

Rims: Mavic XM719 32h 2011 (has never seen a brake pad)
Front Hub: XTR HB-M970 + XTR QR-skewer
Rear Hub: Surly New Mountain Fix/Free 135mm
Spokes: Sapim Race double butted
Sprocket: Euro-Asia 16t w/ Halo lock ring (fairly used)
Free Wheel: Shimano 16t (unused)
Tyres: Schwalbe Kojak 26x2.0 (light use)
V-Brake or NO-brake ONLY!!!I build these wheels for my Specialized P3 and used it as a trick fixie for a short while last summer. These wheels are as straight and solid as Chuck Norris. They are like brand new and it makes me sad to let go of them. However, for £160,- I could bare the pain of parting from them.

Hi everybody,
I'm glad to find a space to talk with like-minded cyclist. I love riding my Fuji Track steel frame. This machine was ridden brakeless for time, but not too long ago I didn't see the point anymore and have fitted a front brake. The thing is on, but not in use.
Some time ago I build a road bike frame on a frame building course in Canterbury. Work on it is still in progress, since I haven't managed to clean up those pretty lugs yet. However, I build it up and rode it from London to Brighton and then back to Gatwick last Sunday. I'm hoping to get my hands on a Dremel soon and finish the project.
Cheeky banter is fine, but from my experience it works best if you actually know the person you are slaughtering.
and do you mean contructive reasons regarding on how and what to post on these threads? Surly, bike knowledge wise there is too much 'banter' about to take anything serious. And who are these people that know their stuff? Are we talking professionals here, like Olympic track riders, custom fixie shop owners or long working couriers? Please don't tell me it's the free time amateur who reads a lot of banter infested threads and blogs.
Anyway, all this is just too post modern. Not taking yourself too serious is wisdom. Not taking anybody else to serious is simply ignorant. You got it right anyhow. Thanks for making me feel somehow welcome.
To everybody else: Are there any more girls up for a bitch fight or am i the only one here?
