Avid levers pls? Will pm for postage

+1 on was looking at it, but I have an unfinished frame like that already. Makes a lot of sense and looks great.

Thanks, I was on edge about getting one.

This is probably not good for navigation, just tracking, right?

not my bike, email carradice

I remember from your crust thread that you found the handling weird, how do you feel about it today?

This new one looks not bad at all. Took them a while to get around making this style.

Thanks guys, that's very informative. Shops probably won't be my only option, and if I stay longer term, I might end up dusting off my shit German too.

Such a bummer, it's perfect otherwise.

tracklocross-adjacent?

I remember seeing that sitting on ebay for a while, thought it was a real shame. I hope you get it back, it's a nice looking thing, has some personality.

Agreed, wish I had room for it. If only it were a 26, I'd use it for a frame swap.

I don't have proper shop experience, but prolly enough for an entry level jobby. Would be nice to have an alternative to HR or advertising or the like.

How easy is it to hop on a train and go somewhere nice? Is the traffic/infrastructure alright for general riding?

I visited a while back and really liked the vibe of the city, could be nice to spend some time there.

I'll be moving, likely away from the UK, at the end of this year, and wondered whether I'd have enough interesting riding options if I went to Berlin? It's all flat, which is a bummer, but messing around with a tall fixed ratio doesn't sound too bad.

Are there lots of bike shop/mechanic job openings?

Not really 'sus', but I happen to know that a frame advertised on ebay is cracked at the fork (or I'm pretty sure it is), and I notified the seller, who hasn't updated the description or taken it down. What's a wise thing to do here? It's a bit of a safety issue.

Welll I guess now I'm scanning ebay for a new frame, thanks a lot.

Sorrryy dunno how to delete a thread, I was making a wtd ad and mixed up my tabs

Really like the BMC, it almost feels like what the Dew should/wants to be. I don't like the drop bar look on it but this is great.

Lil green bike got some CAKE.

Fenders should be metal and silver and 50-65mm wide.

Rack could be other than M18 but has to attach to mid fork eyelets

Took it to the workshop so I can work on it in small doses in after office hours, like Johnny Cash. Forgot to take a bb. I think I have to subdue my usual impulse to go silver on the details, I think black will make more sense here.

The 2018 catalogues for anyone curious.
