Yup.

I guess the doubles are easier to get in and out of but the singles are firmer.

It depends what you want, a quickie, or a firm hold.

Gotta be careful with the second type. I found that with MKS road pedals, it's hard to get the straps tight enough for a really snug fit cos of the room between the outside edge of the pedal and the outer side of the cage. If you're running doubles, the bridge at the beginning of the straps needs all that room.

Not very well described, but very, very, very true.

As a plus, the second type tend to be shorter in my experience and thus easier for tight clearance frames.

I er, wanna hear the story about the seizure and bent wheel?

Dibs on the blue, whatever number it is.

is that primrose hill?

It's Greenwich Park, wrong side of london m'fraid.

nice, i like the frame a lot. but surely you could take out a link or at least a half link and get it nice and tight in the rear ;)

Yeah, knocked two links out only the other night after glaring at the dropouts and willing them to do something, anything to sort themselves out.

My finished Freddie Grubb comet. Thanks to innumerable forum folk for money and merchandise, currency and componenetry.

Updated!

Steel and also a steal.

Clearing out some stuff. I work and get learned in central, live Blackheath. So pick up from any of those places or I'll drop off within reason.

1. 21T On-One cog // £GONE
1/8in massive thing for mad spin. I haven't used it, but it was second-hand.

2. Selle Italia C2 // £GONE
Standard, cheap as chips Selle Italia, bit of scuffing on the back, some black marks, nothing that wouldn't wash off.

3. Black pedals // £GONE
These are black pedals. They come in black and you can put yer feet on em.

4. Shimano BB // £3
111mm, rusty on the outside, strong on the inside.

5. Miche Primato Chainring 46T Black // £GONE
Little bit used, but sound.

6. Seatposts
(Top to bottom)
Alpina 27.2/320, black, never used // £GONE
Dunno 25/370, chrome, scratches and insertion marks for the first 270mm //** £2**
Dunno 26/380, chrome, scratches and insertion marks for the first 270mm (cool looking clamp) // £GONE
Dunno 27.2/210, matte black, never used £3

7. Right-side FSA Vero crank and chainring // £GONE
The left side threads stripped out, but i've still got the right hand one, it was used for about a week I guess. Ring is 48T and there's some scratches where the pedal goes in.

8. Inseparable drop bar/stem combo // £3
Fused together. There's no visible rust, maybe YOU have the strength to separate them Go on, try it, three pound a go. Shitty white tape that is no longer white, 400mm width, 90mm stem, standard 1" steerer.

9. Ridgeback Genesis // £GONE
I'm guessing it's about 54cm. Some of the braze ons have been filed down(not by me) There's a shimano crankset and, i'm assuming BB in there. Intergrated headset, a stem and a slightly rusted brake caliper. It was ridden for a number of years (but never by me)
If this is your idea of a dream then count yourself lucky. To me it's just a goddamn nightmare. That's why it's free if you pick it up.

10. Zenith Stem // £10
Probably the only thing of value. I bought it cos when I was looking at a picture I thought; 'I like that.' What I actually meant was 'I don't like that.'
It's this one. £21.95 new, all standard sizes and fittings. It was literally in and out so there's a tiny bit of grease on it.
