true, but judging by the number of 1 star reviews (12,392) they appear to fuck up quite a lot 🫣

anyway, hope you get it back.

might have something in the shed, I'll take a look in the morning

these guys?
their reviews aren't particularly favourable...

I ran some errands on this guy

it's official, 2nd Nov is international singlespeed day, and being a predominantly fixed gear and single speed focused forum (ahem) I though it was appropriate to have a topic.

please post a pic of the singlespeed bike you rode on #internationalsinglespeedday

@rhb

a few months late, but I finally found the lfgss wordle stickers!

it's not bad. i don't tend to ride this bike particularly fast so slowing isn't that much of an issue.
it's such a great little bike for just pootling around on.

i had to run a few errands over lunch so took the mini cargo out.
thought it looked cute next to the butcher's raleigh

it's annoying.
last couple of tins have been pretty bad.
the first was much darker than usual, almost as if the peanuts had been burnt during roasting, so the flavour was way off from usual.
the second was so badly separated that it took a good 5 mins of vigorous stirring to get it close to the regular consistency. the lower half of the tin had a consistency closer to that of hard fudge and needed slicing through with a knife before it could even be mixed.
of course as a PB connoisseur i'd normally expect some separation, but this was on another level.

does anyone else buy proper nutty in the 1kg tins?
this has been my go to for a few years since getting addicted during COVID.
unfortunately the quality control seems to have gone downhill since the production moved from Yorkshire.

Sticking an ad up on a public forum is like putting something on the table at a car boot sale. First buyer to the table wins the prize.

yeah, i do get the point.
fairly sure most car boot sales you have to pay an entry fee though. maybe the min post count is like the entry fee?

if it's been tried before and didn't work then i guess it's a non-starter anyway.

should the classifieds be hidden until a user has 11 posts in other parts of the forum or changes their username from default 'user5634673546715471' ?

this.
if i sell anything (rare as i'm a hoarder) i'll try here first before going through the ballach bullshittery of ebay.
i'd rather take a bit less money and hopefully be able to help someone out + give a bit of a donation to the forum when something sells.
i'd never ever resort to facebook marketplace, selling or buying.

trying to buy tickets for a gig my daughter wants to go to on her birthday next year
(tyler the creator)

got into a pre-sale ticket website which opened at 10am, and all of the standard tickets have already sold? only premium tickets at £200pp+ left.

was there a pre-pre-sale? or is this just how buying tickets work nowadays and i'm just old?
is there a chance that i might get a standard ticket (£70) when they go on general sale tomorrow if i get in early enough?

quite the headtube on this. Very cybertruck.

I guess you got what you wanted out of the sale, but pretty fucking rude of them all the same.

hmm, I didn't know that.
I mean I'm not actively looking for one anyway, but good to know just in case!

520 - the one trek i'd consider owning

thought you were looking for fixed rather than singlespeed?

Hopefully I live to tell the tale.

good luck! :D

any links?

ah, my teenage self dream bike

Cheers. feels like it's a change of tyres away from perfect.
tanwalls and winter roads aren't the best mix, and also it really needs tubeless.

replacement hips?

in fact, I just had a look and the new range has user replaceable batteries which makes them even more useful, and also comes with loads of different mounts options.
the top of the range 1800 lumen one is £60
