Looking for some STI for my geared road bike. Its currently got the index changers on the frame.

Looking for both a 2 and a 3 cog front as well as a 7 and an eight rear.

What have you got and how much do you want.

Thank you

this has been talked about before, if you'd searched. i was thinking about it for polo (about 2 years back i think) but apparently there is quite a bit of play in the hub. superTed at fgl had one for a bit a long while back. an interesting project, give it a go. ... or wait to see if the rumored SA 3-speed fixed hub will be re-released...

http://www.londonfgss.com/thread3740.html That ws the thread but I was wndring if nyone had done it since.

Do you still have the 700c wheels with the hub?

Hello,

I was thinking of building a fixed sturmey archer hub as copied from Sheldon Brown (http://www.sheldonbrown.com/awfixed.html)

Was wondering if anyone had experieencce of doing it? Or know anyone that has?

PS Didn't know if here or the mechanics section were better for this sort of post

Check out bikely and search for FNRTTC (friday night run to the coast) usually tkes about 8 hours with a few stops for people and the odd cake and beer

What sort of thing are we talking?

I might be up for this, depending on what it entails

Well it was nice to meet you all,

well Ill appear sometime between 7 and 7.30 I'll be on my three speed comuter.

You will smell them from London Bridge.

I've not shower for the past week so will fit in.

Ok the Roebuck I don't care but how will i regocnise you all?

So where is it and how do i recognise you all?

Will I have to go through an iniation?

I know, ghastly.

clutches pearls and looks out over the arboretum

Next time send the foot man.

She lives in Hackney. It will be stolen.

so location? I want another bike

Steal her bike and see how she likes it..

I like your thinking

Eh, no thanks

So not a real internet hardman then.

I'm an internet hardman? :D

Pissing contest time?

How about stopping buying stolen bikes and closing brick lane? Oh and majority of the bikes on gumtree

I'm sure Plurabelle knows I wasnt being serious.

Not having a go, just being truthful instead of being an internet hard man

I locked my bike to a busy bike stand on a quiet street in North London the other day and sat across the road outside a cafe having a cup of tea. There were lots of new ridgebacks etc locked there too, some with extremely shit locks, and a few old geared Raleighs. Plus one Langster. As I was reading my book, I saw a couple of kids on mountain bikes turn up to the stand. They examined all the bikes, took phone pictures of my bike (a rusty old track frame) and the shiny Langster, and then sent some text messages. they then sat there, waiting patiently. I guess the 'scout' system means that the people they're texting can then turn up with the right toolage for that particular lock. If they want your bike, they want it.

I finished my tea and went and got my bike. They called me a 'mug' and pulled an imaginary trigger at me :(

They do the same with motorbikes

what else are you expected to do? they could have a knife of a gun.

well I am looking at further a field than London.

Seat now taken by selim.

Crank arm anyone?

Still need a tool?

Yes I've seen the armourex thread but was looking for a cheaper alternative for powder coating. I've heard stories of £10-£15 for frames and forks.

The guy that I used to use for car and bike bits has recently died so now need to find someone else between Brighton London and Coventry.

What do I do about the threads in the in the BB and things like the headset

Thanks

(Or should I just rattle can matt black it)

Well have a set of brand new 3T handlebars (dropbars) still in the packet. Model t3er3

The width is 44cm and a diameter of 25.8mm.

I bought them for my road bike but never fitted them as it has a quill stem and chrome bars would suit it better than black.

£20 collected from Londonplease click on them for a larger version.

The bars are still in the plastic as they were never opened.

Well a seat black and red stripes to the rear, its a old and a bit scuffed for free collected from London

A square taper FC-M569 shimano crank 175 mm in length its not the cog side also for free collected from London.
