Can anyone suggest a track (but also street use) chain for around the £10 mark please? Am using a 19t surly fixed cog, not very worn at all on the street, should I get a surly 15t track cog also (as opposed to any other brand)so that wear and tear is as straight forward over all three parts as possible? (minimal noise etc)

Unfortunately can no longer make it :( have to meet someone about dog sitting for them. A real shame. Totally down for any veggie or burgess park based events in future though!

Thanks coaches and various people that helped with little problems on my bike. Looking forward to coming back.

lol

Nasty moment today but reading what happened to lynchman makes this seem very very minor. All the best to lynchman and very very sorry to hear that a fellow cyclist is in a bad state. Riding at a high pace past the old vic in waterloo, green light so didnt slow down at all going through the crossing. a black merc waiting to turn right facing towards me was slowly edging out and I thought 'surely he's not going to turn,' anyway, he did and I got a away lightly by unclipping slamming arm and front wheel on boot and then skidding across the crossing still upright gradually wearing down my cleats till I got to the kerb.
Looked behind and driver had gone, couple if people checked if I was ok, which was kind.

Lessons: keep your wits about you, if I hadn't seen him or suspected he was coming out and in turn slowed down as much as I could when he did, I'd be picking bits of his passenger door window out of myself and would have written off the front end of my bike.

And don't ride through central London fast.

Thanks Indra, that makes sense.

How would this be for an everday street setup as well as long rides in the weekend?
All brakeless

As well as this ive noticed a lot of other people suggesting 'mtb' shoes for riding on the road/street. Are they just a little bit sturdyer with more of a sole than road shoes? or am i missing something?

particularly nice looking for cycling shoes i must add.

Thanks dudes, but by the looks of prices of levers, and possible complications, may leave this one for a while and stick with friction.

What components do i need to turn my road bike from friction shifting to index 'brifters'?

cheers me ducks!

def finished.

beautiful!

Is the cannon dale fixed or s's? Is it your daily ride?

Seen here in wet weather mode (due to this morning):

Saw this outside lmnh a week ago. Beautiful. And practical with the hoods and levers both going to front brake.

anyone have a set of gumwall clinchers they fancy selling please? the set of my faggin have started giving me too many punctures, I think just very old and worn out.

Pistoffski - i know not listed but i thought maybe a good place to ask as you have so much stuff. Do you have a pair of gumwall clinchers in half decent condition please that you want to get rid of? for a classic road bike.

This sounds, great, i live about 1 minute from this park so would be in. There is a great pizza restaurant called La Luna just passed my place, about 2 minutes walk away from walworth road entrance to Burgess Park.

Which would certainly be good for veggies, but for vegans, cant be sure.

Ok, as discussed on the vegan thread, let's get a date sorted for pizza in Burgess Park. The date is largely in lulav and xtomorx's hands but how about 12 May (weather permitting)?

Watched tonight's session for 10 minutes or so after a few laps of dulwich park on my track bike. Looked fantastic. Really can't believe that I've lived in south east London for 5 years now and never done my basic training induction for HH.

I even have to contest the sprint up 3 flights of stairs to our flat after my son and I have been on a ride round the local parks - me carrying both the bikes.

haha i race my dog up the stairs after taking him for a walk.

Great service from tokyo fixed gear today, they helped me to loosen an over tightened bolt that i was starting to round off and gave me advice on avoiding squeaky breaks on my road bike. if they were more local i would use them a lot.

The t2 is great, looks better than any other jerseys and the material doesnt get smelly so if weather stays dry i normally wear it for a few morning rides before washing. Great product, fit and price !

for the value and ease of adjustment (with or without cap etc) the Lazer 02 is surely the best. Especially in black!

Better pictures of the woodrup. Replaced that lil spacer/washer from the back wheel and put on a 19t cog. Sound has stopped. Remembered how much of a joy it is riding a nice spinny gear.

Roberts looks so nice. Those black stays are really nice, kinda rare choice but looks big!!
