Having a clearout and selling a few things. All items are based at my house near Ravenscourt park and Shepherds bush.

2. Rapha trousers W30. Given as a gift, but never worn outside the house. Now 40 pounds!

Damn! been looking for a dutch bike for a while! 2nd dibs in the unlikely case that katana doesn't want it

2nd dibs if pjay doesn't want it for any reason. PM sent

Ya dislocations are annoying things, but as you say worth taking the time to rehab correctly. Rush it and due to the laxity in the tendons and ligaments you can do lasting damage to the joint. Hope you heal up soon.

Sorry to hear about the shoulder, don't know your case of course but just so you have some rough ideas about timing; normally looking at least 12 weeks to fully recover from a shoulder dislocation (simple dislocation, ie no tendon rupture, damage to the cartilage etc) however from about 2 weeks you can use the join OK-ish, wouldn't recommend going into road bike like position for at least 4-6 weeks myself, and in clinic would be probably more conservative then that with advice.

Spotter just wondering in the early pictures of your cdf you have a rear rack and since then it seems you've been front loading only. Just wondering if you found that the bike didn't respond to the weight back very well or are you just trying it out? Reading above I know you said that you prefer front loading now but just wondering if there were issues with the rear rack only. Have a rear rack and was hoping I'd get away with it and a small handlebar bag for a 7-10day (camping) trip. Views? Monsieur Scoble I understand your a deft hand in this kind of thing, is my above idea foolish?

Great Pics and looks like a lovely trip.

ah right even better. Did it play nicely with mounting the Gilles Berthoud mud guards?

Spotter just wondering what rear rack you used? Think it looks like a tubus disco, correct?

Building up one of these for a unsupported LEJOG this summer.

If Sirf doesn't take the basket I will happily do so.

would love a set in silver if there is still one up for grabs, will PM now.

been watching the forum of the last week or so but either stuff has not come up or when it has I have been too slow.

So would really like the following to complete a pub/summer bike for the girlfriend.

• Silver wheel set, doesnt have to be mind blowing but all silver is key, will be run single speed so could be a flip flop with a chewed up fixed side or anything really. looking for something under 80 if possible. if it comes with fatter tires (28ish) all the better but not really fussed on that one.
  
  

-crankset again silver and def doesnt have to be anything special really, around 42t-48t if possible but not too fused. Will be put on a square taper shimano bb. Dont really want to spend much more then 30

So all abit of a long shot but what have you all got?

Thanks guys

Ah sad way too late! Really need some cheap 700c silver wheels with a single free wheel for my girl friends pub bike.

oh well 3rd dibs on the 2x 700c wheels with mongoose hubs and rims and bontrager race lite tire if for some reason the other two dont take it!

haha damn busted, well need to pay for the last few years of med school somehow!

Could be a few things, fistly do you ride in shoes that are very tight at the top of the foot? ie clipless roadshoes that have a top ratchet, if so is this press on this area?

Secondly how long has it being going on? If its been going a while then it could be even be something called Anterior Impingement Snydrome of the Ankle. Or if this is the first time you have been riding long distances as others say it could well be a fit issue. This could be aggrivated by the fact that one leg might be longer then the other (very commonly the case) and hence the forces become uneven, again this is helped with a bike fit and if this is not enough special foot beds can be got.

All in all though if its an acute thing that has just come on and hurts now every time you use its prob some soft tissue damage (drunken injury, ankle twisted or even very tight shoes.) If this is the case then give yourself 2 whole weeks completely off the bike (if you can!), ice it for 10mins at a time if swollen and take some ibprofen to reduce the swelling if any. Then after two weeks lightly increase load (very very slowly) over the course of 2 weeks. If this doesnt work then its off to the GP/physio for you.

Again dont know the time frame but if you have had this for ages then got to a Gp/physio now.

Hope that helps

unkle south, sorry thought I had added this to the last message but it appears I have, the techno-fool I am! Sadly still in the nursery so cant pm (though have posted more then 5 times I believe and have been on here for a while (lurking!)) will post my email on your message board. Do hope thats ok?

Can I confirm about the forks though, as per my first message. Are they included in the 80?

oh ment to say that i would quite possible interets in the stem and handel bars too, are they still up for grabs?

ohh very keen on the frame/seatpost offer, does it include the forks too? If so, Yes please! (will also take the bb and headset off your hand for the 15 pound too if the above is the case.
