Sad to hear of your bump MG, how fast were you going, I always ride down there cautously, don't forget if the kid weas german it's proably not his instinct to look the right way on our roads when they cross as they drive on the other side in Germany, no excuse for him crossing on a red, but a reason why he stepped out
I know it's shit, but at the end of the day it was an accident, he didn't mean to cause you to crash.
Hope you mend soon!

RIght, I have got an offer of this bike off ebay for £15
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180429703819&ssPageName=ADME:X:BOCOR:GB:1123
And want to do it up for my girlfriend for a christmas present, she wants a 3 speed bike so I thought one with a sturmy archer rear hub would be a good idea.
The frame alone would probably cost £15 so even if the other parts are kaput its could still be a good idea.
I'd ideally like to do the whole thing for under £100 I know this is a tight budget but I am skint, I think I may even have to re spray it myself, perhaps possibly even get the decals redone myself.
I wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt wheels with sturmy archer hubs, the rims on this bike are probably fucked, but if I could rebuild new wheels cheaply that would be amazing.
I assume I would need the following
Pedals/Bars/Levers/Grips/Seatpost/Saddle?Brakes/Wheels and paint. all this has to be bought for under £100 including a lot of elbow grease!
My alternative is this
as i'd need all those bits anyway.
Just wondering if anyone has any experience of respraying frames themselves, is it something that can be done in a weekend as this is all the time I would have to do it in without her finding it!
Any help or people thinking i might be insane would be greatly appreciated!
