I have some lovely 20" wheels (Dahon design folding bike), fitted with 1.5" width tyres.
http://www.tredz.co.uk/.Raleigh-Boardwalk-Lite-2010-Folding-Bike_27376.htmCan i put 1.1" tyres on the bike?

Okay, I have gotten around to this again. Stripped my handlebar on one of my bikes. Bearing in mind I live in notting hill, where shall I go to get the bars bent? Just want to pay and get it done without damaging them.

I tried a mount off ebay, put it on my handlebars... and at the very first bump, the whole thing went flying. Not great.
I have started occasionally browsing kickstarter with a search like "bike" or "cycles" and I found this great, affordable solid looking phone/sat nav/ speaker mount. $20 including post to the UK. Hope links are allowed... By the way I'm not selling it... just hoping it will get funded fully because i really want one.

Failing it getting full funding (you get your money back if it's not successful) can anyone think of another good mount for my phone?
Also, what do you guys think of the stemrack? Watch the first video. I think it's great because I could leave it on the bike while popping to the shop.... no dirty teenager would bother nicking it.

the answer
Where is this bike from?

I don't wan't drops. All my bikes are flat-bar. If bull horns worked I wouldn't be asking! ;)
Going to look at bending some bars. I'll try and talk to the guy who runs metalwork at my local college.

What tools do I need to strip a handlebar?
-Allen Keys
-Compressed air container (get grips off)That's it? Maybe some spare grips and hairspray in case I need to cut off the old grips.
Anyone got any pointers on this.
Ah the rims look about 1" wide from my fumbled attempt at measuring with a ruler... uh...
It seems there really aren't many places selling 20" rims. Are Marathon racer tyres any good? I want something fast.
