Wait a minute... Lightweight is a real brand for rims? For some reason, I thought people on here were just taking the piss on the horrible fonts those modern brands are using and abusing for their logos. Really thought it was just some photoshopped images people were posting when having a laugh at that.

Hi there,
I know it is a long shot seeing the demand for small bikes when the offer seems to me quite low but I am after a small complete bike.
I have two project ongoing, but I have a job ('finally' said my dad) and not enough time on my amateur hand to make one quickly enough, as the one I usually ride is dying (some would say it is dead and I suffer from necrophilia). I need it for the commute which is about 18 miles a day. It could be quite a temporary bike when my dream one will be built by my small hands.
I am between 5"5 to 5"6 and I will not really fit on long distance a 53 cm seat tube, so I am looking for 50 51 52 max. As for top tube, my current 53 top tube has to be compensate with a very small bmx stem for me to feel comfortable on the drops. so less will be preferred
No gearing system are preferred, I would not like to go over £300. However if the bike justifies the price, let's tempt me. I have actually no problem to try a geared one. I have seen some here going for less, but I also would like very much to give it a test ride, so any bike based in London is well appreciate
Long shot but who knows ! :) Already in contact with sash for an possible one but would like to see it real maybe :)

Sure they didnt change the Lugano ones though. I would put it off the "slightly puncture resistant" list after the three flats i had in the last three days. The last one being me this morning at brixton cycle literally blowing up that shit by pressure it at 100PSI(new innter tube, rim and tyre were okay, glass removed it was just a bit damaged by the glass with a small hole than less than 1/4 inch). Either BC tricks people with fake pump or I have one of this bad puncture week. Scrap that, will switch to Berlin courier at back and maxxis at front on one and a set of marathon pluses for the town bike. shit just got real !

Hi there
I would like to swap a tubular REAR wheel for a clincher rear one.
It's a bit beater alike. Can take a picture of it if interested. Come with a 17t free wheel. Would like the wheel to gave a fixed cog included, that'd be rad!
I got it from here in a mismatched set, but don't want to ride tubular for the p******* curse I am having. Nw8, sw9 or cr0, can also get my arse around too !Thanks. Maxime

If you believe the email address I would say his name would be Jan Verbrugge or something like Jan V*rbr*gge (Brugge being Bruges in Flemish). Unfortunately the name is as common as John Smith round here ( Or John Welsh for the geographical purpose) (and Jean is Jan in a french version and could be plausible as a nickname then)
It sux. That always deters me to buy things posted from people not having a REALLY good rep as traders.

Sorry if I missed the discussion about it, I UTFSed it but no result.
What would people recommend to prevent your saddle to get nicked? I know pitlock is possible, but in the case of a cheaper saddle ( and just not taking any risk to get it nicked - would not be the best ride back home, would it ?) as a cheap solution I used to use a poundland lock, but it eventually got too rusty.
My point is that I believe nobody gonna nick your less than 20 quid worth saddle if they have to cut through something and that you do not want to spend more in the lock than in the saddle itself.
what about kryptoflex seat saver? and what lock would you recommend with that?

Good luck with the sale ! Price is good but top tube makes it too big for me. + got something else in mind now thanks to another friend :) Cheers for letting me know first anyway ! :)
Bubblewrap, really sexy! but cannot really afford this at the moment !
