The rainwater pipe is the most prevalent thing on the Poundbury monster - what an utter piece of shit.

OLD: The Seven Oaks Nicholas Street - top pub!

You can't land a jump 5m (vehicle and ramp length by estimate) and then land from launch given that the vehicle was traveling at a decent speed which would take the landing away too quickly given the jump- it's a sad story and probably a lot more deeper than the events shown on the gif so can we please move on and show funny pictures to cheer people up?

Thanks! It's good fun for getting around town - I'm going to add a 3 speed rear hub as it's a bit too spinny at the moment - not sure how it'll handle at speed!

EEI - thanks for checking, got the 22.2mm post ordered now so I'll post the results.

I've got an old mountain bike I could polo on - not got much coordination though!- where do you play?

That's great thanks EEI, I'm in Manc so I'd pay postage if that'd be no hassle to you.

DFP good idea thanks, I've got a spare 25.4 knocking around so I'll have a go at 'bromptoning' it later. I'll post the results once I've got a 22 to fit into it.

Hi, I've been looking for a 25.4mm seatpost longer than 400mm for my folder as i'm currently way past the limit line! Appreciate it's a bit of a long shot but figured someone on here would have some tips. I've done a quick UTFS and couldn't find much.

I've looked into getting a 500mm long unicycle seatpost but the end is built for the directly bolt fixed unicycle seat. http://www.unicycle.uk.com/udc-heavy-duty-chrome-seatpost-500mm-25-6.html/?___store=default

Also thought about getting a 22mm post and using a shim but can't find a 22mm tube longer than 400mm. Any ideas would be very helpful

The seats for an ikea folding bike, needed a cheap folder when my office stopped providing cycle parking, it's fun to ride but I don't want to wreck the frame by ignoring the limit line

Thanks!

Test

The Bowling Green off Chorlton Green has a pool table and they do a great sunday roast.

That last story was incredible right up there with dead head - these should be published, I'd definitely buy a copy.

This might cover it.

Could you source a more conventional smaller size seat post and use a metal shim to make up the difference?

The sponsor is your friend!

I use this stuff to get rid of the glue - works a treat and smells good too

I've recently built a wheel with the pedal brake hub from Bikefix and am very satisfied with the braking modulation and engaging. However I've found there is some rattling in the hub even when the cone is tightened to the point of stopping the wheel from turning, I'm going to try repacking the grease tonight to see if this will eliminate some of the rattling - apart from that it's all good!

There is some info on this thread

If you're in Manc GBH bikes on 16 Whittle Street (Off Tib Street)
Northern Quarter are worth contacting for painting. Also Fred Aldous sell rattle can paints just round the corner - hope that helps

I used an 8mm drill bit on a raleigh conversion to fit some shimano dual pivots - fitted just right if that helps

Found this - looks quite dodgy
