beats everything for comfort, pricy but nice and if you unwrap it, stick it in the washing machine and put it back on it is as good as new.
I have used a roll for a bit over a year, and lots of cobble bashing, and it has some slight signs of wear, but it is lush.Those sound great. Damn I may go for those. Excellent for dampening you say? Hmmm...

DAWS yesterday for Holborn a fellow "Fixie" Rider. Brown jeans long curly hair. Short black tee short riser bars. All black Fixie with Front brake. Had fun cruising around then.... He stopped pedalling and started coasting as we approached the intersection by Condor Cycles. Hahaha what a shocker. SS Rider. Had me fooled. That's why you didn't DAWS back or even a DAS. All the kit, the look but hasn't made the jump yet. I figure that will be next anyway good ride bro.
If you are on here Flip that wheel around and drop those brakes and SKIIIIIIID

I need advice on Bartape.
I currently roll with the Fizik Microtex. Regular haven't tried the extra thick yet. I love the look and feel but these London roads are getting so bumpy the dampening just aint enough anymore.
Was looking into Cork tape as I have read that nothing gives as good a feel of dampening HOWEVER its pretty rubbish if it rains. It just gets soggy. Don't know if that is really the case.
Need you guys advice.
Fizik Extra thick Microtex or Cork. To be used in all conditions London.

Geep and dicki on board
No one is commandeering anything. That idea is ridiculous. Taking pictures and placing on a site for all the public to see is a great idea but that is plan B
Plan A: utilise our anonymity to our advantage. Don't waste time with the small stuff. The bikes being sold on ONE day. Locate and positively identify the LOCKER where these bikes come from. Good Surveillance is the key.
And while we have crimestoppers trolling this site rather than getting the police to get up off their arse I will say.
My ethos:
Surveillance,
locate the source lockers
Identify main traders
Recon and post regular images to the public - this is not for the owners to be able to identify cause they probably won't be able to easily. Especially after the brick lane scum paint and disguise their stolen wares and mix and match. This is done to shame the police into action and you the trolls for not lighting a fire and their arse.What I'm not doing is compromising my anonymity buy making a fuss and commandeering stolen property. I don't expect anyone who joins me too. Most importantly we pay the police to do that.
Besides done that before and it wasn't worth the hassle. Too much time wasted and stolen goods continued to be sold while it was happening. Waste of my time.
Anyone else in now you have a clearer idea.
Summer is upon us lets get cracking cause crime waits for no man. PM me. -

I use these. Been great. Cheap and cheerful however you might want to use STEEL Bolts and not Aluminium. I use Stronglight Steel Bolts. But the chainring works fine and is still going after a year and a bit now.
Enjoy.

Looking to trade my nitto b123aa 35cm for some Nitto pursuit bars 38cm. Or buy from on here.
Any larger than 38cm may cause an issue for me as even the 38 were a bit large when riding through traffic.
Let me know if anyone has one and is willing to trade or sell. Would pay a little extra if they had the 25.4 clamp size but I can still make the standard 26 clamp size work.
