I spoke to Silverfish and the bloke there said Chub Hubs have been discontinued which is the reason it's so hard to get hold of anything but that he will contact the Hive and see if there is anything available and get back to me. Will let you know.

It's so frustrating they make a great product and then make it so hard to get any parts. I've spoken to a couple of sites and it turns out they don't keep any stock and then just order from Silverfish. Depressing after paying £23 for two bolts I then had to pay £4.75 for standard delivery as well.

Did you ever have any luck with this? I need two bolts for my rear fixed Chub. On silverfish the black and silver end caps looked significantly different but were both just listed as 130mm. Did they get back to you?

My favourite image of the whole thread! @lowprowafer punching a mouse in hand to hand combat!

We had "mice" in our kitchen that I'd been able to keep the true size and extent of from my Mrs until the alpha male got half caught by a trap then promptly walked into the middle of the kitchen floor and lay down. I was in the pub and my other half called to say she'd closed every door and shut herself in the bedroom, got home after a few pints and proceeded to do a terrible job of catching a half dead rat. Either it possessed super rat strength or the B&Q traps are shit! Thankfully she didn't see the blood splattered up the side of the cabinets!!!!

Cool thanks. What would you go for @fussballclub?

What's the current opinion on Archetype rims? I was all set to order a pair but then carried on reading the internet and saw this on strada saying they no longer rated them and thought the quality had gone down. I know that was a few months ago and the only really negative comments I've read about them but it's just put that doubt in my mind.

What did you go for in the end? I'm just looking for a fixed/ track frame now that I can fit a rear pannier rack on and being have a look through that list. Tempted by the Pompetamine.

Cool, just ordered one of them, the one I've got on my beater has been great like you say.

I've bought a new rear wheel and the chainline is different to my existing one , 45mm instead of 42mm. The OCD in me needs to correct this so looking at a longer bottom bracket. 113mm instead 107 should give it the extra 3mm it needs. My budget doesn't quite stretch to a Phil Woods unfortunately though. What do people normally go for? Just stick with a shimano un55? I was looking at this FSA one http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/mobile/fsa-power-pro-jis-bottom-bracket-68-mm-shell-english-thread-prod25307/ anyone got any experience with it or suggestions for alternatives?
