Custom fixies... coming from all directions... on Stanton/ Rivington St area, in NYC.

Also, one of the staff from Chari & Co, sitting outside the store with a real nice metallic NJS looking bike. No decals. Glistening in the sun.

my worst ever drunk ride was from old st to dalston one night after an impromtu night watching the football. kept falling off at 2mph, actually feel asleep at one point lying on the pavement still stradling the bike. I missed my eurostar the next morning. Twat.

I just woke up my housemates laughing at this. Fcking classic mate.

Snoops, I'm interested if Johan is adamant on white....

The same messenger spotted on 3 seperate occasions today around EC1/2 area, twice while on foot, once while in his slip stream....Black stickered frame, yellow deep V's front and back....

A bunch of messengers on Gresham street hanging out everyday. Plethora of fixies.

I'll take it for 300 quid then!

Im pretty free over the next few days, let me know when i can pick it up!

Still taking offers Slay?

im interested, can you pm me details and a few images. thanks.

Interest from this corner as well..

Yeah I'm in London. Sounds great, got a pic or shall I pop round this week?

how about a clamp on dia compe front brake? they accomodate short clearances, they work very well, and you don't have to drill...

Yes that did cross my mind, however, I'd rather have a permanent solution as I can't envisage a time I'd want to ride without a brake..

Hi Folks,

After some advice here. I'm trying to ascertain whether or not I should drill my fork and if I'd be able to find short reach calipers to fit.

My original plan was to replace it with a drilled chrome fork, however I'm having difficulty finding a nice enough fork with at least 20cm steer. These generic tange forks etc spoil the look of the bike...found a few race forks (colnago/ benotto) but not with long enough steer... so, back to the drilling..

Is the reach distance calculated from the middle of the caliper pin to the top of the brake pad or middle of the brake pad? Measured distance from (would be) hole to wheel below. 29mm. Does such a caliper exist?

I'll take 3rd 'dibs' on that. I'll be in Camden this weekend.

Smeear... shine her up!

Thanks Fellas... I'll check it out.

I still think it would be awesome (if commercial property was more obtainable) if a bunch of you guys setup a proper premises...... I suppose the downside would be having to charge more for the bikes... but I could never see it being as much as BLB. Their location probably doesn't help.

Nowhere to be found.

I find it strange, given the popularity of track/ fixed bikes in London, that we don't have more stores... and I'm not talking another Condor... rather something to break the monopoly of BLB.

A lot of us are ordering from Japan/ USA etc, and hardly because it's cheaper...given shipping/ handling/ tax.

hmmm (scratches chin..)

Thanks for the tip-off and offer (tug!)... I'm going to be replacing my fork soonish so should probably add this tool to the inventory.

Nice one Super!

Hi,

Anyone have a spare 32mm headset wrench to sell or to loan? Beer a plenty, if willing to loan...

If there are any chrome forks with 200mm + steerer floating out there, I'd be happy to take them off your hands... after Steves & Johan of course.

Should've just done a skid and be done with it... BTW Get a brake! ;p

If I could find a pretty drilled fork I would. Can't bring myself to drill the current one. I need like +200mm steer... I recently bought a 198mm colnago, it was a few mm short :(

phil... did we tell you to do a skid when you were traveling about 1 mph?

that was chirs...oh well it is always chris...

Yes. I would have politely replied had there not been 30 of you shouting the odds.

You cheeky buggers had a go at me too. I was riding slowly next to 2 friends. At least I wasn't riding a unipack.
