you need breathable waterproof imo, goretex xcr is perfect. the prices vary greatly due to the brands. i would recomend some army surplus goretex xcr gear (jacket and shorts) available from camden, mile end or an excellent shop in lee green called mad mikes

Does anyone know anywhere in london that stocks straight bars? I checked decathlon but they sold out

hi jontyponty,

i dont hink it was the one thenmate, sorry to get your hopes up. I was offered a bike i have no doubt is stolen from my incredibly dodgy neighbour. Had another look last night, its a dark blue ridgeback racer, size 54, with lots of chips on the top tube. I checked the wheels and they are both the same. It also has a sticker saying what shop it is from. If anyone has lost this bike and knows where it is from let me know.

hippy Are there any second-hand bike shops in England? In Melbourne there was a place called BicycleRecycle and it was filled to the brim with all manner of bmx, road bikes, full on DH bikes, old track kit, parts, forks, NOS bits, everything!!! Again, it might come down to the fact that bikes here get used until they're scrap whereas in Oz they just get thrown out.

theres a joint called recycle in elephant and castle, crazy prices though

^i know the place i'll check it out. thanks.

winston [quote]if thats what you think i hope you havent got a great bike because it will get nicked. those newyork noose/abus chains are nothing like normal chains u buy at a hardware shop, thats why they cost so much

Absolute Rubbish.....if you believe that then you're a muppet who deserves to be ripped off....do you think that cyclists are the only people who require high security, super-strong chains or locks? I'm not talking about the stuff you might use to make a garden fence you know....exactly the same chain AND super tough padlocks can be bought at SOME hardware stores and builders merchants for about a third the price.....put a fabric sleeve on it and recognized name and Brand obsessesd "you get what you pair for" mantra chanting idiots will pay through the nose.....[/quote]

thanks, could you tell me of any hardware stores or builders merchants in london that stock these chains?

i was planning on buying a new lock tommorrow and i dont have much money,

from what i've read the abus granite d lock level 25 pisses all over the new york d lock but 160 is a lot of dough

get in the bin

eh? twas mocking your spelling

(look on your wheelie bin)

aidan maggy's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

in lewishem,its like an all you can eat breakie,and unlimited cups of tea and toast

lewishem?

shame on you.

just seen a level 25 abus d lock in the bikeshop behind new scotland yard - £160! better be harder than nails

jontyponty get in touch asap.

lpg this fat builder type gets out 4ft bolt croppaz and snaps sold secure rated chains in less than the time it would take to read this sentence.

what chains though?

no cant view vids here. be my eyes and describe it aidan

i thought kryptonite new youk noose/fahgedabouitt and the abus equivalent could withstand bolt cutters?

i've seen the chains and i couldnt imagine bolt cutters getting through them, an angle grinder yeah....
