Up to £100 if it has rough condition paintwork (no cracks!) and Up to £250 - £300 for a mint track frame. I'm selling a surly frameset and need a replacement in a hurry. Cash is waiting!

Wanted 52cm / 53cm track frameset, in good condition with 68mm english bb. Anything considered, could possibly go slightly bigger - got small legs and long arms.

Yeh I know stuz, yeh he's a topper. Don't know if I'll manage to fit any riding in this weekend, but Friday afternoon (after 1) and most sundays I would normally be up for something. Going to nip out for a solo blast tonight. Added myself to that facebook list - lights ehh, is that not what street lamps are for?? ;) How many folk normaly go on these runs? Is it all students?

Nah the lemonds pretty straight, blue grey with drops. The charge racer is my mate mitchells though. Banchory's about 35 miles there and back from my flat. I did it in 3 1/2 hours so I was going pretty slow. My mates met me in drummoak and were laughing that I was just in my regular jeans and t-shirt - "I don't have any shorts though" - "not even trackies?" - "no just jeans" haha I might have to get something a bit more cycle specific if I'm going to do that kind of distance again. To be honest I was fine and made it out for a couple of pints on sunday night as well - I'm no fitness freak anyway.

If anyones up for starting a rideout, mellow run on week nights or the weekend I'd be well up for it. My flatmate works in Alpine bikes and I have a few friends that work in Edinburgh Cycles that have been moaning about how serious the aberdeen roadie club is and would love a run out if gears are permitted haha.

Haha, I just joined the forum this weekend and I'm from Aberdeen too. I'm pretty fresh to the fixed gear thing, but have been doing regular runs last week to Cults and Culter and on sunday I went to Banchory. I bit off slightly more than I could chew, but took it easy and was fine in the end. I'm well up for doing some more runs soon when it's not quite so grey.

My mates got a singlespeed lemond, and anothers got a chrome plug. I've got a frameset for sale in the classifields (surly steamroller) and am looking for something to replace it asap.

If you want to hook up for a ride soon just pm me.

That danny macaskil vid was made by my mate dave sowerby.

Here's something ahem, different!

I am selling a brand new 56cm surly steamroller frame, fork, ritchey headset and unbranded bars. I got the whole bike through the cycle to work scheme with the intention of selling the frame and forks to fund the purchase of a bob jackson frameset or something similar. I would consider a trade for a smaller, approx 52cm, good condition english bb chromo frame. I have a £250 buy it now on it on ebay, although I am open to offers.

I bmx and down my local indoor skatepark (3-4 times a week in the winter) where the policy is if your over 18 you can choose if you want to wear a helmet, it's mandatory if your under 18. The park is now into it's second year and there has been no head injuries (fingers crossed, touching wood). For me it's great that I don't have to wear a helmet as I don't get as hot and can ride for longer. As far as the article goes I think his arguments a bit scewed, if you like cycling or do so as a main form of transport having to wear a helmets not going to stop you.

Mind you I objected to wearing one of those massive, bellends of a helmet, called tufftops as a kid with good reason!

It was from edinburgh bikes and my work has an account set up with them for Bike to work scheme. I got a surly steamroller complete from them for less than the charge was anyway, which i'm now selling the frameset of to get something more british haha!

Yeh I was thinking that, but I used to run 32's on my xc mtb no probs. I'm 12 1/2 stone (no feather weight). I dunno if my wheels stay straight enough when I re-lace them, then I'll see. Cheers for the calculator link.

I tried to get a standard plug in small last week but the bike shop couldn't order one in as charge were waiting for the next batch, due in june / july. I don't like the green rims on the freestyler, in fact I just plain don't like the freestyle tag (freestyle is bmx!). The riser bars on the freestyler are also to narrow imo.

God I use 36 hole hubs with drilled out sun rims on my bmx with no probs. I would easily consider going to 28 on my fixed bike when the time comes to get a new wheelset, especially if you get big (heavy)aero rims. Has anyone got a link to an accurate spoke length calculator as I'm thinking about straight lacing my current 32's

Here's a picture of the full bike
