how much for a 105 front? what condition are they in?

how do you get those spoke cards, apart from locking your bike at the right place at the right time??? and if thats the only way, what is the right place/time?

whats the waiting list like these days??

im same height, same model flyer, 54, altough i may have slightly longer legs than you as i have ok clearance straddling top tube. I put my saddle forward from the standard when i got it as i like sitting more upright. if you sit more upright you get less weight on your arms and hands so try putting your saddle a cm or so forward and see how you feel. Alternatively you can raise the handlebars by inverting the stem (standard points slightly downwards so that will raise your riding position a bit).

le car I'm bad at maths. So I have ONE skid patch. mmm.

in your pants!

runcible rakan Theres another guy i seen at UCL and riding in hackney, postie bag cant remember the bike.

Ohh poor BMMF :*(

i go by ucl occasionally, mostly for the waterstones there... drive down mare st daily to get to uni, postie bag with lotsa gaffer on it and taped up flyer...

just wondering what sort of life expectancy you guys had on tires (back ones obviously) - i seem to be chewing through them at a steady pace which is bad news considering my student budget! maybe i just need to take a chiller on the skidding...

edit for the pedantics ;)

bit of a shit pic but there you go - front wheel is now 105-open pro combo since a lady decided to run into me with her car and thus killing the original front wheel.

makes me happy that i'm usually not a very aggressive rider when it comes to overtaking...

we went from dieppe (new haven ferry) - first 30 miles out of dieppe is a green route which is an old railroad track paved over, completely flat and more or less straight... after that you get onto the roads, but there's no really steep hills at any point during the route - was about 100 miles total if i remember correctly... follow the d915

is that logo gonna be on the bags? awesome if yes!
