Hey guys, I don't particularly want to have to split it as I know how these things end up - with half the parts left over...
I'll try and get some close up photos done in the next few days (probably wednesday) as I'm at work all day/night today and I won't be home tomorrow. Just out of curiousity, as I've never had to do so, is this the height from the floor to the top of the seat? Or from the top of the pedal from its lowest position to the top of the seat? I'll probably do both anyway...

Here we have my 2010 Charge plug (Large) that I'm finally selling now I have my new bike all set up. It's a great "introductory fixie" and I've spent plenty of cash on it upgrading and maintaining it (almost HHBS worthy with the colour scheme)
Spec:
Charge Frame - chrome
Charge Forks - black
Tektro Front brake calipers
Salt brake & Odyssey cable
Sugino Messenger cranks
Blackburn mono veloce 41T chainring
Halo 14t sprocket
Generic metal pedals & cages
Charge Straw bars & matching Charge locking grips
Richie Stem & carbon spacers
Velocity front & nearly new Halo twinrails
Velocity Deep V rear & Brev M Slittata
Charge Spoon seat & postBad points:
Could do with a service/potentially new bearings for BB
The odd dink/few scuffs in the usual places
Rear wheel is missing a spoke (but is perfectly ridable)
Both wheels not the truest, slight egg in the rear
Brakes could do with new pads
Rear tyre has a few bald spots/maybe needs replacing?
Toe cages pretty rusty, but still function fineIts been a solid little courier, getting me to east london from south west and ive only ever had punctures to deal with. It's also worth mentioning that the chap I bought it off of had welded the seatpost to the frame in an attempt to not have the seat stolen etc. It hasn't affected the bike (apart from the obvious), and even someone with little legs like me, I've found it to be the right height (I wear 30" or 32" length jeans).
So, how would £150 sound? Currently living in East London (E3), but could always arrange to meet wherever. Only reason I'm selling is because I can't ride two bikes

Normally, the only thing I hear is the rolling sound of my tyres... But yeh, I'm not a fan of creaking noises and usually check things out straight away. I was in a rush getting to work, and in fact leaving (plus it was full of traffic both ways), so I couldn't really hear anything or notice anything out of the ordinary. I shall definitely grease, if not loctite my bolts next time.
Considering getting a second hand Campy Chorus 53/39 going cheap, not no idea about chainline/how well it'll fit on the BB etc

I've got a 103BB which just about pokes out the end of the frame enough to attach the crankarms. The spiders have shoulders on both sides (which I think you can see in the picture - the one opposite the crank arm kinda shows it)
I'm guessing that the bolts just worked themselves loose over time - there's a stretch of cobbled stone road that I have to cycle through in Barbican every time I go to work. I've been running this setup since December and I cycle every day, so would have expected this to happen sooner if I'd done something majorly wrong, I'd have thought
-
I guess I didn't give prior thought to the forces/moments with having it on the inside to get a better chainline... but still confusing as to why it was designed to look like it's able to be fitted on both sides
NOW SOLD (Sorry Mark)
