They're bagged up and on my coffee table - will carry them with me tomorrow as I'm in office Pm so in city centre in the PM. Text me if you're free to grab them at any point 1pm - 2.30pm or then 4ish.
Low bars won't help bad back, so raising them is a good idea.
-
Ok... found them and what I'm hoping is the correct bolts. There was nothing else in my junk box that'd take bolts, so they have to match.
-
Bars as high as makes it comfortable for you. TBH I'd just leave them as they were - you'll get used to them - just adapting to drops as you've never used them until this bike.
Them levers are not designed to go next to the Stem, will 1) look silly (but who cares tho) and 2) be more tricky to use. The levers were originally fitted with cross tops (giving you an extra braking position when your hands are by the stem) - I'll have a dig around and see if I can find the bits I took off- it's just some lever shaped bits and a couple of screws (you'll be able to see where the screw went in).
I'll get back to you if I find them...
-
What sorta advice are you after on bar position? Bring it around here if you like.... cheaper?
Might have to wait until Thurs eve though if you decide to as I've stuff on this week.
-
I look enough of a twat without doing that, walking > scooting.
Bah, Scooting is underrated.
-
Fook 'em. Or just take off the rear brake?
Andy (2 brakes and happy).
-
I was thinking about this only today.
Anyway, ride would be awesome. Lights a must still. That said, this week is out for me - next week not looking great either!
P.s. 48-17 now and it's taking a bit of getting used to. Did you say you had some foot retention devices for sale?
-
'tis flat there... you could've scooted still?
-
the comments on this related commentary are pretty insensitive, and make me glad I'm enjoying the UK roads rather than battling in SA.
:(
-
Front brake only must be fixed then...
Glad you're liking the drop bars :) Pics when all done please!

You'd probably have to spend one week hiding behind the fridge to get a picture of Georges drinking from his bowl. We have a big fight every night about who is allowed to drink from my glass of water.
Maybe if we all started drinking water from the cats bowl instead... had to teach my cat to use a scratching post by using it myself - was quite relaxing.
-
Georges in the shower, the movie
YouTube- Georges in the shower
Interesting - my cat drinks from the shower too, always ignoring the bowl of fresh water by his food. Weirdo.

Think that one's running Single Speed? I've seen it being pushed but never ridden.
Done owt with the Raleigh yet Joe?

There's a scheme in Nottingham... not much use to anyone anywhere else right now, but could prove to be a model which other uni's adopt in the future:

This is marvellous--sky and lake seem to be reversed, and the land seems to float in mid-air as a graceful ribbon. A keeper.
Heh heh - I flipped an earlier one to see how it'd look - the reflections are great for optical effect :)
Here's a crop and mirror of the original that creates an effect I really like:
Had a play with the first one that needed cropping too:
-

-
last one for now - n82 - again would benefit from a bit of cropping
Taken in the grounds of Lacock Abbey - the place where William Fox-Talbot created the first photo negative back in 1835.
