Anyone have any bar end/time trial style brake levers for bullhorns?
Ideally I'd want some where the cable comes out into the bar, rather than external.

Cheers guys

EDIT: In fact, I wouldn't mind a Dirt Harry or Gold Finger RH lever either, so if anyone has one they don't need, I'll happily take it off your hands.

Hi mate, PM'd you again yesterday regarding the toe clips and straps, have seen that you've been online but had no reply so thought I'd post here in case there was a problem.

Are you happy to post?

Cheers, Sam

Hi mate, how much for the bullhorns and stem together? Potential dibs

Anyone have a silver rear rack that'll fit over 700c wheels that they'd let me have?
The cheapest I've found in Cambridge so far is £15 from Cam Cycles, but that was black and I ideally want silver.

Not sure how much I'm prepared to pay, but I'd prefer if it were under £15.

Thanks guys!

Right, here we go..
Sorry if the photos turn out huge, I'm posting from my phone and can't resize easily.

Anyway, here's the old one - just outside varsity hotel

And here's a new one, not too far away from the first

I know where it is.. Might see if I can get over there quickly before the girlfriend gets home!

I'd go for Rob's frame if I were you, it's lovely and if I had the money I'd have gone for it when he first put it up!

cheers for them dude ;-) clearance might have something to do with the frame being bent....

Loving your MK1 GTI!

Here's a photo of my new beater frame, it was a bit of a "barn find" and I'm just waiting on some new bits to complete it (Namely a new quill stem with more drop, possibly some new bars and toe clips and straps) along with a bit of a cleanup, maybe a respray later in the year.

Hi, dibs on the "Rusted and scratched MKS clips with Christophe straps in equally bad condition, no bolts, FREE"
PM coming now.

Foffa Pedals arrived extremely quickly, honestly didn't expect them for at least another day or so.
They look even better than in the photos too, super pleased, thanks James!

Dibs on the Nike Beanie, PMing.

Hi mate, dibs on "10) Look Pedals (used) and cleats (new). Threads and bearings are perfect - £5"
PMing now.

EDIT: Undibs, PMing again, sorry!

Any photos of the pedals? Also, dibs if you're willing to post them.

Some prick overtook about 10 metres before a junction and decided to cut across me and turn left into the junction, whilst I was rapidly approaching the side of his car. Had to slam on my front brake and lock my legs up to attempt to skid, which I've never actually done before. Luckily managed to stop dead but properly shat my pants. Had I not reacted as quickly, I would have hit a car due to it cutting across me for the second time this year grrrrr

Similar thing happened to me the other day.
Pulled off from the lights ahead of a bus, it then promptly overtook me about 100 yards further and turned left in front of me without indicating.
I absolutely shit myself when I slammed on my front brake and the cable snapped, it seemed like everything went in slow motion and I just about managed to skid alongside the bus and got off the bike and sat there for about 10 minutes all shook up.
Need to change my gear ratio, skidding at the minute absolutely kills me.

Thanks for the Weinmann levers Rob, much appreciated!
Took them apart and gave them a good clean and they look great too, thanks again.

Those look great to me, when are you about for me to come collect? I'm only down Tenison Road so not far away at all!

Does anyone have a single (or a pair of) Weinmann drop lever(s) that they'd let me have for under a fiver?

I've just managed to ruin mine and I don't have another to replace it with, it'd be great if it had a similar attachment to the one shown in the picture below so that it could be a direct replacement without having to remove bar tape.

Thanks!

Right, who owns this beauty?
Spotted outside primark by the grafton.

so as josh says it's a broken "touch screen" it's easy to replace then?
how hard are they to unlock too?
sorry for so many questions but this is new to me

I'll PM you so we don't clutter the thread up!

i'll have a think, anyone local that can replace screens?
presume that it's a 3g too?

Assuming the screen itself works but it just won't respond to touch, it's not the screen that needs replacing.
It comes in two pieces, and the part you'd need replaced is called the digitizer (it's the glass on top of the screen with the black surround)
I've replaced this part three times on a couple of different 3Gs and it's probably the easiest thing I've done in terms of iPhone repair, costs about £15 for the part and takes a couple of hours since you need to be careful not to break a cable.

You say the reflectors on the pedals are nasty, have you got any photos of them?

Anyone know of any jobs going in Cambridge?
I'm currently doing my Graphic Design degree so I'd love something in that area, although I'm prepared to do anything really, I just need the monies.

Red colnago with yellow drops riding near the university botanical garden about an hour ago.

this was it as a polo bike, it now new forks (700c black kinda aero ones) and a new headset, can include more parts if needed, let me know.

I don't see a photo? Sorry for the hassle mate!
Definitely interested pending photos and assuming I can shift some stuff to fund it (I can't justify buying another frame otherwise)

i have an old puch but it is probably too small for you i think its like a 54. but it is super cheap

How much are we talking when you say super cheap? I might be persuaded despite the size, also, do you have any photos?
