It looked like they both got up eventually, but it did look like a bad one

Santander cyclist was going far too fast on what is a really busy crossing point down the CS1 with plenty of cyclists and pedestrians about

Seen a bad crash at shoreditch today outside the sainsburies where the pedestrian crossing overlaps the cycle path. A guy going far too fast on a Santander bike crashed into a cyclist coming the other way

Came across this on Facebook - anyone any experiences of this?

Fulcrum wheelset still available?

If anyone has anything lying around, looking to convert an old road bike to single speed but unfortunately it would come without any wheels!

The cheaper the better - located in hackney

Cheers. I have a perfectly good working mango single speed I’ve had for years but I hate the look of it these days! Looking for something a bit more ‘mature’

Just don’t know if it’s worth the hassle. It’s a full bike minus wheels, so would it just need a new single speed wheelset added onto it (with a correct size chain) and I’d be good to go?

Hi all,

Does anyone know anything about this vintage road bike? My friend has one spare and is offering me it just to get it off his hands

I’ve seen in some places vintage Peugeot bikes can be worth a fortune - I’ve even just seen some frames on sale for 400 odd quid!

The frame itself needs a good bit of TLC. It’s a red equipe frame with horizontal drop outs - planning on adding a single speed wheelset to it

It’s a full bike minus wheels just now

The thought had crossed my mind!

Hi all,

I've got bright yellow deep rims which i liked at the time but now really don't like...

im toying with the idea of painting them, ideally just a plain black - any advice/experience of this?

Hi all,

Got a Herschel backpack just now that I’m using for commuting to work, no matter the weather though it gives me the sweatiest back imaginable

Is there any alternatives that are a bit more sweat friendly?

An upstairs seat next to a window might be a better option

I think I’ll be heading back to bus commuting the next few days. 24+ degrees at 8/9am sounds Too hot for me to cycle on

Hi all,

Posted up here a while ago about my original mango (I know) single speed bike.

All original frame and wheels, it’s a good looking bike but obviously not the best to ride

Do any LBS in hackney do part exchange? I wouldn’t mind trading it in and paying a little bit more for something a bit easier to ride

That’s a photo. The bottom bracket looks untouched and it’s jusy worn away the crank arm

Hi all,

My left crank arm is gubbed. Got it tightened at a store but think it’s threaded as it’s coming loose every time it’s tightened.

It’s a chasewood (shitty mango bike brand) and I was wondering if I can just replace the left crank arm without replacing the entire crankset (I’m a bit short on funds ATM!)

Assuming it’s the same size, I can’t see why not?

Hi all,

About 2014 i bit the bullet and got a mango single speed bike. Didn't have a clue about any bikes in general and foolishly thought they looked cool enough to splurge 300quid on.

Its collected dust since then and i've pretty much cycled 0. I've recently moved to London and i fancy taking up cycling to work every day, only a 5mile cycle door-to-door so i'm going to dust down the old mango.

Is there anything straight away from this range of bikes that is a heap of rubbish & i should replace? Or is it a fairly solid enough bike to commute in and around London on?

Cheers
