Went for a spin this morning on a B road I used to ride all the time, now it's just series of connected potholes - which is quite laughable given the councils spending huge wodges on posh sandstone pedestrian areas. I managed to rotate the bars and loosen the headset with one big wallop. The air was blue. Bolton roads are shite, my ex contends its the fact its pissing down all the time. I'm running 100psi in a pair of 25mm conti's, so surely thats about right for a 14st bloke.

Christ thats awful, tough girl, hope she pulls through okay, then sues his ass.

Nice detail love the blue bits.

Sorry it's in Manc.

Clicked on a Hope Head Doctor, whole thing £15 ish on eBay... 4 days later just the top cap arrives. Check my eBay account and it says thats what I bought and was charged for - £6 from memory. I umm don't think so, I know a feckin assembly when I see one. Not even caning the copper alley fire water that night. Almost like a server bollock was dropped. Very annoying. Is that even possible?

Suitably bagged Tom.

Available for just a small donation to the forum. Plus a fiver to me for P&P as I'm broke-ish.

Shimano road pedals, the guy that gave them to me uses cheapo shimano mtb cleats with them, but I heard unlocking can be a little unpredictable, he used them for time trials, but some people hop between a fixie for work and a swanky racer with the same shoes which is handy.

Theres a pair of genuine SM-SH70 cleats on ebay for £24 if you were interested or feeling pedantic - 0° float jobs. More about these kewl pedals here...
http://www.bikepro.com/products/pedals/shimroad.html also someone else uses these on here.

Classic, I had a Pavone I was very proud of back in the day. Got nicked by a postman who was caught doing his round on it by a copper who was into bikes!

Classy that. Subbed! Dayyum that trick brake bridge...

I'm gonna go... OLMO?

Great thread, love the inspiration sources too.

Back on two HUELs a day now. A tad gassy, but feel and sleep great... like Ed I'm off the beer, I had one last night and felt steamed!

Got it today, just need to keep drinking the huel and laying off the beers, otherwise not a great advert. Hehe looks great though!

Even a parent should get this to have the hippest stude on campus.

Kerchunk... £65 posted... now includes a new vittoria tyre which cost me more than a tenner. Really nice wheel. Seems a pity to eBay this so I thought I'd offer it here.

Phat retro ride. Sure it'll sell.

Damn it. Anyone selling a pair of longer legs...

Gutted mate, always thought they looked great fun, and quirky. Should be easy to spot on gumtree etc. Here's hoping.

Nice guys, bought a cutaway c15 brooks off them (yeah decadent) they asked me for a build photo for the site, which was nice...

Beautiful condition, stainless spokes, small flange campag record QR with skewer, silver polished MA2 rim no visible oxidation with original transfer, hardly any wear to braking surface. Nice tension, runs true - tyre not included. Could use new rim tape that's all (popped some narrow insulation tape on over the top). £65 posted, Bargain for the nick it's in. Came from an old guy who had about 6 bikes. Good for a retro pose.

Well kinda what i meant, it's a big ol faff tho! Like that frame i must admit... Quite relaxed angles?

Or just in the case of the pedals a manufacturer's product shot. If in doubt i generally save an image out, even a cropped grab will do then run it through tineye.com a reverse image search engine which will tell you where the pics been used before.

Good spot. Shame he's selling it as a bike where I'd bin the parts anyway. My road bike (well TT) cost me £450 plus £50 for a new front wheel as the parts were already sorted too.

Probably the same seller as the wheels, dodgy as the proverbial. another completely zero feedback with a spurious name. Don't touch with a bargepole. Even if its a real sale if they are knockoffs just as bad when your foot comes off.

I think the terms ighly polished... woah... they are chrome!
