£16 sound not too much. postage is free for UK, possibly somone could buy here and post cheaper.

I think they have someone in preston do all their bike frame repairs and stuff.

Planet X pista hubs. come in black and gold and pink looks like formulas but no ugly cutouts. could add some SKF bearings and nice grease. Its what im getting after all the anti goldtec stuff about lately :-)

Good luck with the sale and all, but I do have to say, im sorry its something i feel so strongly about as unfortunatly in college im outnumbered and bullied by idiots. I agreed with above, skullcandy is for MEGA tools. There uncomfortable, bad sound quality, the only thing going for them is looks, but since everyone knows this the people that have them to try and look cool are just mocked for not getting awesome sennheisers like everyone else.

After much pub debate, our virtual polo team (aka 'The Hip replacements') has stumbled and tottered into the blinding light... we are now in dire need of some gentle tuition (and no doubt some shocking lessons in reality) and look for kind souls/opportunities to coach and hone our fledgling abilities in the south Manchester area - anyone up for it??!

Mr K

PS. Is a polo virgin a Trebor... ;-)

I think what you mean is:

"After chatting with people in the local we have create a polo team called "The Hip Replacements", we have decided to try playing bike polo. However we need to learn how to play as we dont have a clue. We are looking for people to help improve our novice skills, in Manchester. Who wants to help?

Mr.K

PS. ??????????????? ;-P"

However your answer is above. How far south are you??

I sometimes ride down that way, its like 8 miles just from altrincham though, so probably a bit over 20 mines there and back.

No mech hanger, its a 1948 one. Ill have pics of ze wheels in a few days. will measure and get better pics of both frames soon aswell.

Updated with some pics. The frames are all 56cm C-C, The holdworths is a lil bit taller to fit a clamp space, but c-c is the same. Im sorry, there not nervex, found there probably Prugnat 62 BIS. the carlton has no dints and paintork is fair. holdsworth has shallow dint on top tupe and chainstay and no paint. the other has 2 small shallow dints on TT. (ill get pics). wheels are in ish condition, used for polo so some spokes are a bit bent, rims are fine.

I understand at busy times it would be stupid to have bikes on, but 80% of the time the mets arent busy at all, sharp points and hazourdous objects is such a stupid excuse. I'm not too fussed though, why pay £4 to get to town and back when I could cycle for free?

Buy Snoops Langster! they are great for polo and he was selling it really cheap!
although what size bike do you take?

56 or 58.

Ill come down polo tonight, wont stay too long though, not played in a while because i want to get my bikes sorted out, just having 1 bike for everything is a pain. also want to try playing on someones single speed, im thinking of getting one of the crappy create bikes and prolly just stripping it for parts for polo, since it comes with brakes ill give single speed a try.

Glowbike, your leaving it quite late arnt you! :-P deadlines the 16th? for most things

if no one wants it phone them up and quote distance selling regulations, they have to refund postage if its their mistake.

I offer £60 for ze wheels.

rincewind - does that mean you have a sledge?

not anymore I dont think, might do though..... there cheap enough at sports world and stuff though! =D lol.

also... if the weather forecast's telling the truth, does anyone wanna go sledging on sunday? not that I have a sledge or a good place to go, i'm just excited by the idea of it. x

heeeelll yeahh. fixie skidda sledging! good park near me with a slope in it, went there with my grandad and a home made sledge whenever it snowed! =D

This is genious. to make it bike related. bike replaced the horse
YouTube- Look At My Horse WOW

if woodrow doesnt have the cinelli bars i will =D

there is nothing wrong with loose bearings.

what do you mean they fell apart? all the spokes simultaneously unthreaded? spokes snapped? axle fell out?

There is something wrong with these loose bearings, not very smooth at all. Sorry for rubbish description, by fell apart I mean the spokes came loose, from just general road use. some of the spokes had become so loose after the trip I noticed this that they rattled and I could move the nipple by hand.

ill be cominggg!!! =D

Dude its just a path frame, its probably built just after Holdsworth took over FG Grubb, if its freddie grubb at all. If it is FG Grubb 1972+ its most likely just a 531 plain gague "Path" frame. Sililar one went on ebay for like £90 inc postage, didnt look like a proper track frame but wasnt drilled for rear brake and no forks.

Twas great games! had a big round bruise on my leg from that ball... several others from when I fell over are much worse though, lol. I think ill give freewheel a go some time.....
