Good idea! can it be a night-ride too?

Ahhhh...I mis-read your original post. interested in a red / blue 135BCD - would like to see in real life to sort my colour-matching.
This w'end would be great. Thnx man. have whispered my contact.

Yes. Perhaps. I don't know. Does it matter?

Yeah I am into trying that shizzle too - slicks for winter / knobblies to join my mud-loving mates (but they wear body-armour! eek!).
I just bought a pair of 26 inch wheels - rear has a White Industries ENO hub so can fix / SS any frame. I also bought a resprayed pre-2001 GT steel frame that I know is too small for me! But we'll see what happens..
If you can get a bike/frame that she likes and fits her well, then perhaps get a ENO built up? The hubs can be gotten for much less over in the states than here ($120 vs. £110).
SS is a trend in MTB too so I would suspect that the off-the-shelf bikes have similar drawbacks to 700c ones..?

Czech out this picture: BRIGHT RED!

Excellent! Can I bagsie the 135BCD 44T chainring please?
££s same for Red / Normal?

Yeah - I'm almost 6'3" but inside leg is silly long - 35-36 inch! Erm... its a shame that frame is a bit £££s and scruffy otherwise looks like a great fit - short TTube etc.. I would have to faff about drilling that fork (Try finding a 1 inch fork with 35cm of steerer!) but hopefully some other fellow lanky bloke will take advantage... unless you are suggesting that I buy it?? anyone?.... hmm...?

^ It took a lot of willpower for me not to start bargaining with the man! But I have a frame stuck in the postal system already... Argh! If only this had been a week earlier...

Stealthy... 'Ninja bike' is born, do you wear a black catsuit and go cruising through the shadows like a comicbook villain? ;-)
Good photography mate - crank + valve positioning are spot on!

(hug)

I'm super! Thanks for asking!!
awww... don't be like that SK. Just follow the crowd and adjust your bicycle accordingly. the criticism is because you would almost certainly enjoy riding your bike better if it was set-up conventionally. horizontal saddle + some foot-pedal attachment.

Don't panic!

Dibs!! Please I need a 42 (begging).
EDIT - actually - I'll pass - can't be arsed changin BB from campy one..
Still available!

Err... wrong topic?

I has yellow? Sunday polo come get.

Best:
Brian Rourke frame+fork - second hand. I love the 'Birds Custard' colour scheme and it rides nice. (Can be seen stacked 3 behind Cornelius' brushed mystery metal frame in that thread.)
Campy Record Pista Hub tied and soldered to a tub rim + Continental Sprinter Gatorskin Tub. So light + stiff! From my sensei Momentum-San. Has finally got me fixed after months and months faffing around!
Worst:
Flouro-yellow Tioga toe clips and matching zefal bottle cage from Ebuy. waiting for my crappy bike to be assembled I don't know if I love or hate them yet.
Half-link that snapped pulling away from the lights from CONdor. Chain was making funny sound for 2-3k before - it was raining and I didn't stop to check it- d'oh!

Hockey stop! Hockey stop! Hockey stop! (Search threads)
Or do as I do and endo + skid/backpedal the rear + wobble + look panicky.

You must buy these brakes or everyone will laugh at you.

Meet you at furnival gardens?!

53cm Lemond Fillmore. Second hand - Grey. £275 delivered. The owner is jumping off the bandwagon - jump on and save £150!?

Someone else posted this - I think in 'fav cycling pictures' thread - uncanny similarity!

The very same day that my rear brake cable snapped when SS I was unable to stop at some lights and crashed badly (also some rider error), fractured my patella, wrote off a frame, and caused hundreds of pounds worth of damage to an innocent car driver. If I had 2 brakes I almost certainly would have been OK..
Confession: Even after recovering I ran SS with only a front brake (being cheap) for a couple of weeks - but very carefully and being super-aware of road hazards. I feel better now I've got that off my chest. Whew!
