I reckon repair is 100% possible, but would involve an entire new front end and a respray, which much as I love this bike is just time and money I don't have at the moment.

Work have offered to pay for something new, so I think I'll probly just cut my losses and hang it on the wall or something. 35+ is pretty old for Italian steel as it is, and we had a good decade run in each others company. Nothing lasts forever, innit.

T-Boned a rent-a-bike cunt this morning while turning left onto a one way street. The genius was filtering the wrong way up the one way street near Blackfriars road, by the time I saw him I had nowhere to go.

Tried to go round the back of him, but ended up hitting his back end full pelt, went over the handlebars and the cunt just rode off leaving me and my totalled Basso TT frame lying in the middle of the road.

Front end of my frame is folded on both tubes, totally fucked.

While I'm unhurt, I'm pretty devastated at the loss of the frame, I loved that thing so much :( Fucking idiot cunt.

An all time fave, never gets old

Still got some old Profile Race Cranks, spindle and 25t chainring + BB kicking around if anyone is interested?

Oooh, I'll take it Kev :)

I Hate Tattoos on York Way is my regular studio, but only because 90% of my work is by Alice of the Dead.

They're all bonkers and lovely in there, and while not a 'High Profile' studio, the work is always quality and they're always up for walk ins, highly recommended.

RIP Gabe Brooks, apparently got shot outside his grans house a few days ago :(

Price drop on wheels and cranks.

So having stared at it for years with the intention of building it into something else, I've finally come to the conclusion that all I really want/need is a street fixed and a BMX, so the time has finally come to part out my old polo bike as I really need the cash.

• Goldtec Double Fixed Track Hubs laced to black DP18's with plain guage black DT Swiss Spokes. Bit of brake wear to the rear the rim but plenty of life left. Front rim has never seen a brake. 17t Shimano Freewheel on the rear, but opposite side threads all good. Bit grubby and could do with a true but a reliable set of wheels. Front wheel has 1 Silver spoke that has been replaced. £110 for the set - would rather not split

• 165mm Profile Race Cranks w/splinedrive spindle and 1/8" 25t Sprocket. Chrome on the driveside is a bit fecked from previous owners crank grinds but plenty of life left in them. Probably have a euro BB I can chuck in as well if you're interested - £45

• 700x35 Marathon+ Tyres - one with pretty much no wear, other has been skid but no where near dead - £15 for the pair?

• Wellgo Pedals - £5

Pickup from Clapham, Catford or other South East location nearby.

No Postage. No Dibs. Cash is king as I'm skint. Please PM me.

More to come as and when I take photos.

So after years of looking at it and intending to build it into something different, I'm now skint and its time to part out my old Polo bike, so figured I'd put the feelers out here first.

Basics are a stickered up 53cm Black Surley Steamroller with trick forks 4 all ur mad barspinz (unfortunately with a stuck seatpost), Profile BMX race cranks with gusset euro BB and 25t sprocket, DP18 wheelset on Goldtec Hubs with a shimano 17t freewheel (and a 22t fixed sprocket if thats your vibe), rear V-brake plate and shimano brake.

Still working out pricing and need to take photos, but if you're interested in any of the above, drop me a PM and lets talk.

Cheers

Tom

I'll take the coppi 44t chainring if its still going.

Sold.

Provisionally sold.

Right, times are hard so need to shift some shizz that never gets used, and I can count the amount of times the pouch and belt have been used on one hand.

Looking for £SOLD for the lot; this is the larger, deeper BRP pouch and a 1st generation belt as I remember. Both have a little cosmetic wear to the hardware but otherwise great condition. Keyclip is a bit worn from use but still fully functional. Would rather not split.

Pickup from Catford weekends and evenings, or Clapham weekdays (If either of those are super hard I do get about so drop me a line and I'm sure we can work something out.) Will post at cost.

I don't really know what to say, everything has already been said.

You were a gent and will be missed by many gaffer. RIP.

I'm after a 650c spoked if you have some for sale Si46?

PRAV! You wonderful bastard, where have you been all my life?!

In for sure mate, sounds bangin.

Why hello there,

Not been around these parts much lately, I know its an unlikely request but if anyone happens to be looking to get rid of a White Industries eno eccentric hub, on its own or built up, please hit me up.

If you don't ask...etc etc.

Thanks

Woah!

So very sad, my thoughts are with you and your family Niall xxx

Hehe, fair play Bloc is looking pretty mega as well. Alas I'm always too disorganised/skint to sort those 'holiday park' festies out to be honest... often a lone wolf as well which doesnt help with the whole cabin business
