    This thread is like the drunken family argument around the Christmas dinner table about politics.

    We should all shut up, but everybody wants to have the last word.

    DK is concerned that the forum is not such a nice place any more.

    Maybe we should just kill this thread? Lock it or whatever. Threads like this really aren't helping.

    As a newbie, i think it's great that

    1) the forum is so busy
    2) you can argue and call people what you like
    3) no heavy handed moderation

    If you dont like a thread just ignore it, but at least people can say what they want - it's awesome!

    ...and are wearing sandals, which is not unlikely if you're a fuckwit on a brakeless bike.

    with knee high grey socks?

    How about the "unclip one foot, stick it on rear wheel behind seatstays" method ?

    I wouldn't put it in bike porn if i were you.
    this forum will eat your testicles for breakfast.
    try 'current projects' instead.

    back on topic, when I worked down the street the store was awesome, so good luck in the future.

    Thanks again

    I agree, it's horrible. It almost looks fake, like a photoshop experiment gone bad

    I snapped a sprocket on my Campagnolo Record 10 speed cassette, mine was also the 15t

    I just bought a new one, but felt a bit gutted, i am only 10 stone and cant open a jar of pickle without the wife helping so can only think the 15t sprocket is made of cheese (prob Edam)
