beauty is in the eye of the beholder I wouldn't give you tuppence for that

was it like a fixed that you was looking for or just any old bike...?

Wanting both really, but the pug i would keep stock, It's too late now i've won it.

Whats the max that pug is worth, it's at £51 at the moment. ending soon.

21 inch frame should be fine.

I've read that also, but it doesn't tell me if that particular bike is correct, it's actually going higher than i'm prepared to pay so may leave it.

I have, but no answer as yet.

I'm tempted to just buy the one above and take the risk, (heart ruling the head) if it goes pear shaped i'll stick it back on ebay.

Yeah, i saw that but couldn't figure out what size it was (the way the seller has it written) having a thick day i think.

Whats the likleyhood of the pug having the wrong threads.

It doesn't appear to come with a fork so you'd have to factor in the cost of a fork.

I have some forks with an inch steerer, also a headset and bottom bracket.

How much would be a reasonable price be taking into consideration the postage costs.

I'm tiny, thats the problem i'm having, can't seem to find much for us little folk, is it worth a shot.

Is this shit, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1970S-PHOENIX-ROAD-BIKE-FRAME-REYNOLDS-531-TUBING-ETC_W0QQitemZ180260974636QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item180260974636&_trksid=p3286.m14.l1318#ebayphotohosting

Ok i'll leave it, cheers.

Stop pissing about you lot, i'm on a mission to find a bike that fits me, is this worth a punt or not, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250266698234&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=015

Just quicky i guess When Buying A Peugeot Bike how do you know if the threads on the BB and headset are english or french.

I have those cane creek ones, good levers, whatch though as there is two sizes 26mm and 31.8, also if you decide in the future to run 25.4mm bars the 26mm are far far to big clamp wise. Set up wise you can run your cable out of any side of the lever, you can also adjust the levers reach. The only thing i dont like about them is the hinge on the clamp, depending how you mount them the hinge can dig into your hand.

To be fair it's not that big, it's an outhouse which at one time was sectioned off to create a toilet and a coal bunker, until i knocked the wall down that is, you can't swing a cat in there with all the gardening tools, kids bikes, my tools, good job i have an understanding missus as i still use our dinning room with a waterproof sheet down.

Cheers.

egg-sactly what i thought.

Been on with that workshop for months now, revolving things around work doesn't help, took me about 3 weeks just to make the bench, i've put boards on the walls so as to hang tools up but cant be arsed to gather them all together, the place is a mess really,i'll post some pics when done.

Back to previous question though, will going from 23inch down to 21inch make that much difference.

Yayyy a positive comment about my home, you can come for tea if you like, will be EGG sarnies though.

You mean sunflowers.

The thing is the 21inch bike is on ebay so can't really test it, will 2 inches difference really make that much difference, BTW my missus says you are a twat and welcome to decorate her kitchen.

Discussed this with you in another thread i think, 5ft 6ish inner seam around 29 inch ish, i just new someone would comment on something esle other than the task in hand but as usual i fall for it everytime, poor me, i deserve a frame that fits after those comments.
