There's a silver fixed locked up quite regularly around there too. Think they belong to some guys from Univ.

Rather stupidly managed to get two copies of this book and the cost of returning one isn't worth it. It's a good read.

My rear derailleur isn't shifting very consistently, particularly across the smaller 5 cogs on the 10 speed cassette. What I've tried so far

• checked rear hanger alignment with Park Tools alignment tool as well as removing it and checking it on a flat surface
  
• new inner cable and checked it was moving smoothly through all the housing
  
• cleaned rear derailleur and made sure it was moving smoothly
  
• checked wheel alignment and that the cassette was tight on the wheel
  
• adjusted cable tension but can only get either reliable shifting up or reliable shifting down but not both
  
  
  

I'm running out of ideas for what could be causing my shifting problems. I've managed to get it to the point where it shifts through most gears apart from a couple of the middle cogs where I need to move the shifter until it clicks and then give it a little extra nudge, before it gets to the second click, to encourage it to shift up.

By the process of elimination, assuming the cable and derailleur are fine then it must be the shifter, however it appears to click through all 10 positions fine both up and down. I've read about lots of cases of Shimano shifters jamming up and not clicking through at all but never of one having uneven cable pull between indexing positions?

Anyone have any other ideas as to what else it could be?

Interested in the crankset if you split.

I'm thinking of getting one of these jerseys. What do you guys reckon is most versatile? Long or short sleeve?

could you post? I'm up North at the moment.

Ordered a cog so just after the freewheel and tool now. That one you linked to on Ebay looks like it might be a pain to take off?

I'm after an 18T singlespeed freewheel, an 18T fixed cog and a Shimano style 4 prong freewheel tool. Will need postage. Anybody got any of the above?

Thanks!

What 9 speed tiagra parts are you putting on? You're right that the indexing isn't an issue if you're just friction shifting, however if you're keeping the rest of the original Simplex 7 speed setup you might have issues with the 7 speed chain running on the narrower 9 speed cassette.

Great news, so what's the story?

Before I suck it up and buy one, does anybody have a track hub lockring tool I could borrow?

Hey guys, I'm putting together a cheap beater for uni since I sold my bike when I was home over the summer. Does anybody have a cheap (up to~£30) rear wheel they want to sell me? Preferably 700c fixed but failing that a 5 speed would be good too. Thanks!

Anyone got an CAAD4/5 they want to sell me. 56cm frame size would be ideal. Thanks!

I'm after a Tiagra or 105 braze on front derailleur to run a double. Will probably need postage.

I'm after a cheap (ideally no more than £30) beater rear wheel for a project. Flip flop would be ideal but as long it has a fixed side that's fine. On the off-chance somebody happens to have a 27" one lying around that would be great but I know that's unlikely so 700c is fine too. I'm up North in Sheffield at the moment so would probably need it posting. Thanks!

Just PM'd you. How much would these cost to post?

One last call to see if anyone has a TImbuk2 Classic messenger in the medium size before I buy a new one from Wiggle!

Oops my bad, I didn't read the rules properly.

Old one is the NOC up on the Old Road campus.

New tag, hopefully this one isn't too boar-ing for you guys:

I'm after a messenger bag that I can get my 13" laptop and a DSLR into. Was thinking something along the lines of a Timbuk2 or Chrome, got a budget of around £50 and will need postage as I'm out of London. Thanks!

PM'd

Would you split for the prime lens?

Didnt this just sell on eBay?
