This forum has turned into a piece of shit some of you are wastemen and all you seem to do is chat quim. I'm glad i live and ride in Bristol and i enjoy it, some of you need to get a life because to be honest all you seem to do is hate and bitch about insignificant details and come accross as absolute wankers its not surprising none of us use this forum anymore. The trailer is rad Gav has done a top job in my eyes so all i can say is fuck you to you boring cunts.

Wore different shoes than usual in straps so had to adjust etc, came into uni skidding to a stop infront of about 30 people however i didn't realise that because i was wearing slightly larger shoes than normal and that i had done my straps up way to tight once i stopped and tried to dismount by removing my feet from the straps i couldnt.
Result was that because of my skid people were looking at me thinking i was showing off so i had a nice audience of fellow students to laugh at me as i just toppled to the side whilst still clipped into my bike, grazed an arm but that was about it, i bet it looked pretty funny though.

Did I see you crash into a bus the other day in Broadmead?

they have these mountain editions in 50/50 in bristol, i find the sizing on halfcabs weirder than most trainers, some like these below are really hard to get on but then they feel massive once walking around etc. These to be honest i think look like shit, they have dog bones all over them which to me is a bit strange! I can't say i've seen a single pair of mountain editions i like!

for a start i have always rode with a front brake 'from the beginning'. I have only briefly attempted a couple days of no brake riding and i had to do this as i said above my brake wasn't the right size for my smaller wheel so yer i didn't really dig the way that came across
but still i will take your advice and pop in during the week thanks for the help

Right for a start i am not very technical with bikes i can do standard things and there is a lot that i guess i am still to learn, but basically i have an issue with my bike and it is scary. For a start at current im not running any brakes mainly because i wanted to give it a go so i don't want any hate from some of yall but secondly because i got a new front wheel and as my old wheels were 27" my brake wouldn't fit my 700!
So anyway i recently got a new rear wheel build as my other was a piece of shit thanks to my ebay skills, anyway the wheel is a velocity rim on a halo hub it was put together at bristol bike workshop and im running a 16t durace cog that adotk sold me on top of this i have a new chain! Anyway im not sure if its because its a brand new lockring or what but when i skid stop the cranks slip through which literally makes my heart stop going down a hill and it even slips when i give it a good crank. Is this because it isn't tight enough? I wasn't sure so i have replaced the chain ring and bottom bracket as the old ones looked pretty rinsed anyway.
I've deceided to put a front brake on again anyway, but i am still slightly worried as to what the problem is, i've spent a fair amount now and i have all new parts on my drive system im at a loss to what it might be. Should i go out and conquer some bristol hills or what? Any advice? And sorry this is a tech question but id rather post in the bristol social group forum as i at least know a few of you (in a way) and won't get shot down for being a little runt for this. cheers
