HG Wells was the first person to use the phrase "atomic bomb".

lulu i looked at an article from lifesigns network
do u have any info or not?

Is the lack of manners a prevalent social trend?

Welcome to the forum. Who is the project for?

A lady on a red and white converted Raleigh, with a light blue jacket riding west-east across Vauxhall Cross.

dogsballs not really, hard to get nuts for them, hard to get sprockets and lockring for em. other than that nice.

AH... I actually asked about the thread on them, and was told they had "standard threads".

What sprocket/lockring would I need?

Hey... How did the Maillard hub turn out?

Are they a good buy?

One thing I have noticed is that my shoulder stiffens. I think this is partly the bags I use - I have loosened the shoulder straps, and used the waist band more. I also try to relax more when riding.

The main problem is, I think, that I am constantly turning my head round to look over my shoulder to see what's behind me. Not something I can really avoid, but I know that this hasn't helped my shoulder stiffness.

Silver FG with very high seatpost and tiny risers with red grips...

Locked against a lamppost on the Walworth Road last night.

Where are you Simon C?

Interested...

Mash, the same thing happened to me. I thought that the crank had just got loose, and retightened it. From that point on, it would loosen very quickly.

Basically I had worn down the 'square' on the BB so that needed to be replaced. The crank arm is now my office paperweight...

I was given an old pug frame, which I converted relatively cheaply (although more expensive than I thought beforehand!)as a first go. It is a lovely beater/commuter...

I am now working on a second build - taking my time, waiting for the right parts to come up, thinking about what I want it to be, spending the right amount of money...

Basically, what I am saying IMHO is get stuck into your first build. Have some fun with it... I would then settle back and work out exactly what you want for your 'premier ride'.

Chap on an orange fg / ss and blue bobble hat passing through Herne Hill at about Midnight last night - very hnourably giving his lady companion a helping hand up the rise towards Dulwich crossroads.

By Day... Development Officer for a Lottery 'good causes' distributor.

(and no, you can't have any money)

By Night... Theatre Director

My beater is a Pug convert.

The most important thing is that you have a seatpost that fits. After that it is all gravy.

I used an on-one rear hub (36H)... very cheap, but holding up well. Unless the rim is in good nick, I would just get another one. 28h will be tricky to get hold of IMHO, although SJS may have something.

I did my first wheel build in exactly the same circumstances. Good to have done, but the wheel was never perfect. Not sure if it was worth the effort...

mercianary anybody got a sugino 103mm JIS BB?

I have some Nitto Noodle bars to get rid of

Noodle bars you say?

£?

(nothing of note to offer in return - sorry)

Spotted: Dog Kennel Hill Sainsburys... a Pug conversion of the same generation as mine. I left a spoke card.

I sneer at those who haven't spent weeks, months sourcing parts and painstakingly building their conversion.

Therein lies the joy.

Chap on the train from Pulborough with Campag Zonda front hub and a "on less car" sticker on the dropouts...

Sweet as.

Black frame, rear green deep V, front balck deep V, risers... walking outside and then parked outside the Tate Modern yesterday afternoon?

mashton 25th November is the day after my birthday. BUT, I'll be in Amsterdam.

Cambridge is about 55miles, I think. About the same as Brighton but with essentially no hills.

SNAP!

Happy Birthday in advance....

See thread

There are a few tips in here...

Nah, I have to give it to dogsballs ro-land, sorry. He spotted it in the first place and got in when it was offered properly and he supplied the bits for it which he now gets back again. You can buy it off him when he's pimped it :)

Yay.. more space.. oh.. more space for another bike..

Cool! Only teasin' really ;-)

What is the plan for it, Dogs?
