Sorry matey, group bought with Retro di Corsa a while ago. It appears that it's still going on so just get someone else to share a buy with you. Or buy two and sell the second one here?

Oh sorry, didn't realize it had been reduced.

I have 13 in the box.

I've decided to make an executive decision and take these off the thread for the following reasons:

1. They aren't turning a profit, and testing/packing/posting is a lot of work.

2. They work beautifully as extremely bright torches/or helmet lights, but some people have complained they become intermittent/cut off on bumpy roads mounted to the handlebars, an issue I didn't come across until very recently. I have offered refunds/discounts to those who contact me with a fault.

I'm sure I should find some use for the 30 or so torches i still have in the box. Suggestions on the back of a postcard!

Still in packaging. Size: L

Taken at South Beers a few weeks ago using an iPhone. Completely untouched yet it looks like a painting.

I think we should pool our frames together and get them all done one colour at one time. Might work out cheaper per person.

Argh Andypancakes would be perfect except my hubs are 36 hole!

I'm still looking for rims! DP18 or anything with an ERD of 581mm!

wtf

Thanks

Sure, let me know! Thanks

OK, so I bought some Rigida DP18s in red with intention of stripping them.

Bought the paint stripper, applied a coat and got to sanding the paint off. I'm just over half way through the job and I've given up.

If you want to finish the job - removing remaining paint, sanding and polishing the rims - be my guest. You'll get the rims, and whats left of the paint stripper tin (not much but it's a start), for a bargain price of £20 for the pair.

You could even leave them as they are, and just have a quality pair of rims disguised. A thief would not go near a bike with these in their current state!

Going to make some self tightening pedal straps I've designed. I sold my sewing machine a while back and am starting to regret it!

Anyone have something sitting around I can buy from you for not too much money?

Thanks

Titanium has a pretty bad fatigue life compared with other alloys such as steel. People get confused by the fact it is well known as a metal with a very high strength to weight ratio, but it is actually pretty crappy in reality and is rather prone to catastrophic failure.

Check out these stem fatigue tests on Sheldon's site. Low-quality titanium can be pretty bad for fatigue.

Glad to say I'm still alive and the shit that was kicking off downstairs seems to have cleared. The pizzas pretty cheap here. 6 euro for a large.

Oh and the king prawns you get here are like lobsters.

They're rubbish.

I quite like pizza express, the really big thin stretched ones are nice. I cover them with their fake parmesan and tabasco which seems to have gotten weaker over the years.

This is going to be merged with the pizza thread isn't it.

Yeah, PM me your address.
