i dont really have the time to get to a frame builder, i'm going send villiers velo down in rochester an email that is the closest frame builder i can think of, has witcombe moved now?

thinking about what happened they were trying to steal the frame and front wheel not the rear wheel and saw the sheldon brown technique as vulnerable to theft.

thankfully i still have my bike and components they even left the rear track nuts and chain tugs lying on the floor. could be worse i suppose.

the cold setting sheldon brown describes sounds too brutal for me to do it myself.

any recommended bike shops in the london area that might be able to do such work?

some little cunt/cunts/cock/cocks have managed to bend my frame tonight.

my bike was locked with 2 evo minis one sheldon brown style another evo mini locking the front wheel to the frame with a yale kryptoflex cable and padlock locking the saddle and seatpost and with ball bearings in the allen bolt recesses and a 7mm allen bolt stem.

all this pretty much rendering my bike as secure as possible did not prevent some retards trying to nick my rear wheel and in the process rendering my frame scrap metal.

basically the rear drive side chain stay and seat stay have been bent about 1.5cm out and need bending back i don't know how to do it with confidence and am moving to china on the 1st of september. anyone with the skills to re-align the frame please help!!!

can't believe this shit has happened one week before i leave after 2 years of taking care of the frame and using a beer bike for such occasions as tonight. this city is scum to the brim.

as you can see from the pic the frame is plastered with stickers which may not be to everyones taste. this was done to make the frame less stealable, seems to have worked so far. the frame is in excellent condition under the stickers, there is also frame protectors stuck on the frame under the stickers.

this was used as a pub bike/winter bike.

Hi. I'm the seller of the Bob Jackson frame.

I don't really understand quite what the problem is with my auction listing. I have written quite clearly on the item description:

"THIS FRAME IS IN GOOD CONDITION ALTHOUGH THERE IS A DING IN THE TOP TUBE WHICH HAS CAUSED A VERY SLIGHT BEND. THE DAMAGE IS CAPTURED IN THE PICTURE AND I CAN SUPPLY PLENTY MORE HI RES PICTURES TO ANY ONE INTERESTED IN THIS FRAME - JUST EMAIL ME"

I have in the past contacted several professional bike shops including Dave Yates and Bob Jackson regarding the damage and have never been told that the damage is very likely compromise the safety of the frame. Which is why I chose to use the word "although" because other than the ding and the slight bend the frame IS in good condition.

I don't think the frame is a "deathtrap" plenty of poor sods ride around on frames in far worse condition, knowingly.

As for labeling the keywords with "track" and "fixed wheel" I am simply trying to expand the number of potential buyers - which as a seller is quite reasonable. It's the "keyword" field on Ebay not the item description which is different. I don't claim the frame is a track frame or fixed wheel, however there is a possibility that someone interested in "track" and "fixed wheel" might still be interested in this frame - it would after all suit a fixed wheel conversion.

It's only really "spam" to people who spend far too much time on bicycle forums on the internet.

Hands up who they are...

rocho is swinging by later to collect it. dave - should he decide he doesn't want it for whatever reason i'll let you know.

i live in oslo house so no im not.
