May have to move to Reading for work. Is there a LMNH-type place where fixie skidders gravitate?

Brown b17, nearly brand new, £55 delivered if you’re near SE?

if you want padding, inner tube wrapped flush around it, finish with black gorilla tape.

Cheers 👍

Is there something special about Park, Unior et al fork steerer dies, or would any new 1-24 ,fine, right-hand die work to cut new useable threads in a blank steerer?

Body Alliance in Brixton have been really good for my accrued lifetime of sports injuries. Lower back injury, neck tightness, wrist sprains, several pulled muscles and injured tendons in arms and hands, plantar fasciitis, overused knee tendons… Really dedicated pros at a good price.

Way less technical than expected

That’s interesting. I guess they mostly need to do the basics routinely, reliably and as fast possible? Can’t imagine they’re rebuilding wheels or facing bottom brackets when they can just get new components. Would be cool to solve some of the bizarre challenges they get though, like adapting shoes for wider feet (example of bizarre not cool).

do something more lucrative but still with bikes.

Honest question- like what? I don’t personally know any pro team mechanics but I do know people from F1, and to a man they said the pay was acceptable but not high, especially with the stress/hours/experience required, and that working with F1 cars effectively counted as a job perk. I’d suspect cycling is similar?

Not a mistake you’ll make again I reckon.

Height, feet and inches.

Unless it’s the altitude of cities which is usually metric, and then it goes back to feet for aircraft altitude (though that’s an intl civil aviation rule).

Usually happens the other way around so you’d be lucky if it was just the bolt.

Finally coming to terms that a dremel isn’t enough for my projects and I need yet another tool, but I don’t want to pay for new. Anyone have a good quality and condition grinder they’d part with?

Stand and rack gone. @PandanRoll and @FrankieKnuckles, good meeting you both.

Gone.

Gone.

How do I post a gif? Can’t find info or figure it out 🤔

Anyone missing a titanium frame with carbon fork, Chris king headset, enve rims, sram cranks?

I've replaced with one of these for now, seems to work. Any reason not to ?!

Cool. I’ll let the other folks have at it, budget went wild this month.

Interested. Is postage from UK?

Hey still have these?

Incredibly effective distraction, must say. All the corruption, incompetence and thinly veiled bribery/embezzlement will just fade into the ether while society is transfixed by partygate and Johnson’s circus.

No wonder he hasn’t been removed.

I put an 11sp Athena on a 10sp Veloce shifter+cassette, worked fine. Ymmv

Replied 👍

Rack double dibs noted.
