@ibob @C4r1s let me know!

does anyone have a spare one of these hanging around?

anyone have any tips on cancelling virgin media? I'm being given the run around ... put on hold that just gets cut off ... i was told a number to call but it doesn't work ... currently waiting in the chat.

mine ends in Feb and tried to make a call but apparently i called a week too early to be able to cancel.

Trying to decide between Zen (there's some referral codes on here) and Vodafone (city fibre) with comes with £100 amazon/tesco/sains voucher ...

edit: looks like vodafone 100 quid offer is over :(

sent you a PM

I've got one spare, think its S

edit: it's red if that matters

except that its just 1 type: stocks

as opposed to throwing in bonds and other types of equity

they can but i'd check that chris king has what you need in stock. and its not crazy expensive. there's one generation of these hubs that make conversion $$$

i've had this headache before.

anyone got a spare pair of conti contact urban they would like to sell me?

edit or know of a good deal somewhere for 2 tyres + tubes. these are sadly sold out.

makes sense, monevator also suggest doing a global bonds/uk gilts but they are doing horribly at the moment.

hard to know if that advice is still relevant now.

but then also seems risky putting all eggs in 1 basket (FTSE All-word, for ex).

is this true even if s&p 500 is cheaper? on InvestEngine -- TER is 0.07 for Vanguard S&P 500 and 0.22 for Vanguard FTSE World ... and lots of overlap (but obvs the former is US heavy, but US tends to be a decent bet?).

I have one of these I could post. need to check shed.

(sorry to hijack thread)

do these stay charged at a reasonable level in the winter months?

is the lezyne brompton pump worth it? i just broke my old zefal one ....

i bought the dynamo wheel already built from sjs (sp hub) -- which cost-wise is really good.

lights can be had for cheap but i went with iq-xs (front) and a b+m (that looks identical to the son rear). not the best value for money but its a great setup.

does anyone have a spare (preferably silver) standard length brompton seatpost? would need posting to cambridge.

edit: potentially could meet up in bloomsbury on a wed

sounds like a good challenge for you :)

is there a workaround to twitter now requiring an account?

i want to send a thread to someone who doesn't have an account, i know there are some sites that will translate it for you

yes i'm interested in this too ... what is it

I know people have run 650b just fine. Unfortunately i have no 700c wheels to give it a whirl.

Been enjoying the stuff from Baron brewing lately (a new-ish local Cambridgeshire brewer)

I need to measure up and confirm but this is the 51cm all-season currently on their website. I don't know if they changed much in the 2nd generation, I'll check, but gives you a rough idea for now.

attempted the wayback machine and couldn't get the older page to load.

I'm 5'5" and its perfect. I think all the small canyons are 650c too.

Putting this up for sale. I know ISEN has lost a bit of good faith on here but as far as I can tell this frame is great, haven't had any of the structural issues people have mentioned, and its beautiful -- I just don't do this kind of riding anymore, so it's time to move it on. I keep thinking I might so I've been hanging on to it but I've got my eyes on a Neutrino project.

Will get some better pics soon.

ISEN 51cm frame - in the cadbury dairymilk colourway

Ultegra 6800 Di2 Hydro disc, 11 speed (160mm cranks)

*king cages pictured not included.
*saddle not included, but can find something if its a dealbreaker

I'll consider parting it out if there was sufficient interest in everything.

Looking for £1850 all in. ONO.

PRICE DROP: £1650

cheers
