Yeah, the heirachy. Sorry, I don't have the right website vocab! I do like the footer. I completely appreciate that about people with 1024px+ or mobile phones, if you were actually baring that in mind, well done!

Yes it is perhaps the sparsity which is annoying at the minute, but I'm sure you'll find something to fill it with! I just personally don't like the fact the links are spewed horizontally down the page and think solely the footer will suffice and look better aesthetically. I do take your target audience thing into consideration though, it does look much better on my iPhone, currently on a work computer which has a small screen so will have to check it out on my home PC. And yes, the link colouring is all very well done, I do like the colour scheme.

Keep up the good work!

Positives-
Really like the colour scheme, the light blue and grey goes very well. as well as the white. Especially like the header. It's quite like the Strada logo. Very easy to navigate. Looks very good on the iPhone

Criticisms
Front page is messy, two different sets of links which is just a bit muddled. One clear and concise set of links would benefit this page. Subheadings also messy on IE. Basically, it looks very presentable (other than the two different pairs of forum links) on the iPhone, but on browser its not so presentable.

As a nice comparison, I think sub forum categories like this would be nice, if you could do them:

Thanks, will try this when I get back.

You mechies are very kind!

That worked, thanks a lot! Only problem is, there's one on the bottom of the fork which I can't get off now.. any suggestions?

Thanks for all of that but no, its not the headset cups. Its like a sort of rubber/metal wedge. I think its number 5 on this picture:

But I will take photos to confirm. I have to get the bus today, FML

LBS = local bike shop. If you put your cursor over the majority of acronyms used, they generally are defined.

A bit of a novice question here but just wondering if someone could help me out. Was just attempting to replaces the forks of my De Rosa and got the majority of the headset off with no problems. Then I got to this bit which is kind of part rubber, part metal. It just won't come off! there's seemingly the same bit at the bottom of the headset.

I'm sure I've read somewhere that often Campagnolo headsets require some sort of tool to get a piece off - is this it? I just can't see how pulling it rigorously could do it any good. Any suggestions?

PS I'm sorry if this is a commonly asked question, I've searched and not found but apologies if I've missed something blatant.

Thing is, even if I found the bike now, I'd have hell trying to prove it was mine. Wonder if they'd take this post as evidence.. hmm.

Am interested, have PMed.. although not looking to pay extra for vintage if I'm honest!

Thanks Tom, I saw that yesterday. Would like to see if anyone else has anything to offer!

Yeah I've seen thanks Diablo, but the majority look pretty shifty to me - I feel slightly more comfortable buying off LFGSS.

I know Bromptons are expensive, but I think particularly in the folding bikes market, price does really constitute quality.. I think.

Hi there,

Looking for a Brompton bike for a little town runabout. Will also look at similar folding bike sorts. Preferably the S-type but flexible, also preferably not a loud colour.. will probably looking knob-ish enough as it is!

Budget is also flexible, please show me what you've got.
Many thanks.

Good luck mate, a bike with a geometry that aggressive won't sell so easily. Keep an eye out on http://bikeshd.co.uk/ and report it to the police. Regardless of their incompetence, it certainly won't hinder your search. My sincere condolences..

Haha that's it. Very good film.

What you do is incarcirate him for 15 years then trick him into sleeping with his sister who he no longer recognises.

Do it proper

This sounds uncannily similar to a Chinese horror film I've watched.. hmm.. but its with his daughter. Anyone know/remember this film? I require nostalgiaz.

Ha, the exact saddle for my De Rosa.. shame.. lovely though.

Be subtle with your bumps, 'oh and one more thing, this bike has been ridden by me, which surely increases it value' etc. even subtler bump

This guy is apparently la creme de la creme of remake decals, I'm considering getting some myself. It's a real shame we don't have a specialist decal maker in the UK. Or to the extent of my knowledge.

Seen it in person, it's lovely. and you're HUGE.

what's wrong with that EM? ^ the seller seems to go out of his way to not let the sale happen. yeah it's rusted, yeah some chips. and?..

To be fair, I'm sure he knows that anything with Eddy Merckx written on it will get attention, and restorers will happily restore regardless of a shoddy condition. It is probably just about in standard circumstance for a normal bike of that age. And, perhaps excuse the old idiom.. 'Honesty is the best policy'?

looks pretty nice.

Needs more gears.

I have an old front and SS rear which you can have if you pick them up. They are old wienmann alloy rims. I live out Leatherhead way.

Thanks a lot for the offer, would love these! However have just googled and would cost £20 to get a train to Leatherhead. I will consider but I think it's just a bit too far to pick up. But again, thanks a lot for the offer.

These espresso brand track style wheels are only £70 a pair...bargain

a) ew, they so would not match the rust and decay all over my frame.
b) as above, what the hell? The spokes muy be made out of wood or something simular.

Sorry, if I were to pay £50 they'd need to be complete wheels I'm afraid. Thanks for the heads up though.

Stoop, as much as I want it I can't justify it. And I can only pay in cash anyway unfortunately.

But its appeal is soo strong.
