  Maybe a bit too modern and wheelset, but I have 28h Record hubs (silver) with TB14 rims which I am looking to move on?

  One of the team members at work keeps using the word “irregardless”.
  I cringe every time.

  Thanks for replies all.
  Still seems a bit excessive, but I guess that’s the world we live in now.

  Hi all,
  How has your experience with Laka?
  My friend has had a bike stolen at Putney Leisure Centre.
  Lodges claim, provides photos and receipt of bike, him on bike, bike only etc.
  Claim denied as he cannot provide receipt of the lock it was locked up with….
  Seriously - if that’s it, waste of time and money

  Thinking of selling, or maybe leave with a bike at my dad’s, in a country far far away

  Call it midlife crisis.
  I bought this frame in 2013, and loved it ever since. Always kept inside clean, very seldom ridden in wet weather.

  The good:
  Its pretty
  Its very very good to ride
  Aggressive geo
  Its high end steel and the nostalgia

  The bad
  Tire clearance (esp Campagnolo brakes)
  The upper bolt of the downtube bottle cage detached itself from rust, so we crimped a 6mm rivnut. It works fine.

  Geo is
  HT - 137mm
  TT - 542mm effective
  ST - 470 ctc (sloping tt)
  Seat tube is a steep 74degrees if I recall

  Frame - £400
