Being new to biking and 49 yrs,i fell of my butler mercury pretty fast downhill about 5 months ago,i slammed my brakes on at a junction,and bars thudded left,and i flew over bout twelve foot,my left elbow is getting worse pain in forearm going toward wrist now,any opinions tendons muscles etc..!! Ive used difflam n allsorts but cant ride my bikes yet due to pain,my doc says complete rest but cant even pick up an asda bag :(

That lots just made interesting reading,especially the bit about not being able to undo wot ive said as a newbie,im glad i had a root round first,feel free to rip the piss out of me :) however please try to remember resentments the number one offender, and ill forewarn you lot i aint got a clue about bike parts but i aint no virgin :)

Hes 67 the guy i bought it off,it was manky wen i got it,like a plonker i washed it in the bath with muc off but kept it on too long and took top laquer off,ive been bob jacksons shop re-a respray,ive took the bags off carradice,there a bit worn,ive cleaned it up since these pics,it looks different now,im prepared to spend money on it,but would like it sprayed before any extras,the decals are a bit worn its 521 double butted so he says,weinmann brakes,im very impressed just to own a bob jackson,my others a peugeot 501 racer,and i got a claude butler mercury,im just gonna listen to the experts and go with the flow :)

hiya im steve,ive got a peugeot 501,and a bob jackson 521,im brand new to this game and want to learn as i go,im thinking of putting pics of my bikes up to get feedback,im a bit clueless on bikes,ive been bob jacksons shop regarding a respray,and the guys were very helpful,i recently bought the bob jackson and washed it down with muc off but left it on too long and it took the laquer off,then i touched it up with a small pot that the previous owner gave me,but the colour didnt match,anyway ive decided on a respray,and ive joined this forum to learn more about the hobby...:)
