...what kind of frame this is please?

maxstilwell: would you walk into a pie shop and ask for a pie without researching what flavours of pie the pie shop sold? Would you then get angry and stand-offish when they pie seller asked you what flavour you wanted and whether you wanted chips and a soft drink with it?

Haha this is quality!

I love that frame!

Yeah haha, I rode to Killingworth from Heaton on Saturday night about 10.30pm and passed 3 fixed gear bikes. 1 just passed Sainsburys and 2 sitting outside the Newton Pub. I also passed a nice lad on a pretty battered racer who shouted "What you looking at dickhead!?"

Yeah the only thing really throwing me off was the price, I've bought cheapish skateboard parts in the past, been really let down and ended up having to spend more money in the long run. Bikes are a lot more expensive and really cant afford the same thing to happen.

I ride my bike almost everyday, its my main mode of transport. Wether it be from Heaton to town or too see my parents in Killingworth. Thats standard then I go on rides withh friends quite a lot recently too. Rode from Corbridge yesterday, really good fun. So yeah, I ride quite a lot and I dont wanna be let down buy some dodgy wheels.

The wheelset comes from this guy - http://www.lfgss.com/thread41555.html

I've spoke to Billy and Tommy Lee about them and know what they think, but the more feedback the better.

What you reckon? Think its worth it?

Im thinking about getting a set of these pretty soon. Its £140 for the complete wheelset and fixed cog. Are they worth the money or would you recommend an alternative?

Im so close to getting rid of my brake now. The past few weeks i've barely touched it but I like to have it there to use in an emergency if need be. Im getting way more confident now though.

Who's the guy who blasts round chilli rd with an illuminous yellow back wheel? Seen him at the coast rd roundabout a few weeks back and locking his bike up at tesco.

ignore that, im in derby and sheffield. rubbish.

well aye!!!

24th is good.
What times it roughly gonna be kicking off? Is there some kind of Schedule getting drawn up?

yeah 10th is sound. Me, Kinch, Alex and Dan will be down for it.

Nah I cant make the 3rd, Im in Derby. Any Saturday but that one for me like.

Yes! really looking forward to this, 26th june is sound. You heard anything back from the rollapaluza people?

So good!

Go to Bonsers and speak to O'grady, He'll sort you out a treat.

Wylam, pint / food, ride back. Always a winner.

Thumbs up.

yeah tom, lets be friends. forum banter is such a treat, always has been, always will. I'll come back when my bikes up to scratch ayee.

so can he til he gets a fixed cog sorted. and yeah were both gettin footstraps soon as. fuck me, if i hadve known i was gonna get this much of a slating i never wouldve bothered. nothing like welcoming people into the community.

Definately get these printed on tees. If Billy's still got his screen printing carousel im sure he'd do them super cheap. It'll cost about £15 to get the screen made. Youll make your money back easily.

Sounds awesome mate. I'll look forward to it.

Risky game he's playing there!

How many BMXers play that same game everyday though?
He's not doing too bad really. and he is sorting some foot straps within the next few weeks. But whatever makes him happy really.

nah, he rides fast, no brakes, no foot retention.

I picked this SE Draft Lite up from Dentons a few month back. Changed the stem, bars and pedals. Still needs a bit of work. Stoked on it though.

... and Kinchley rides this.

Just been reading back through the events on the newcastle fixed site.

This one seemed to go really well.

Any plans of sorting another one in the near future?

I know theres a weekender planned in Edinburgh over Easter Weekend but im not sure if i'd be able to make it.

This is awesome! Such a good post. Nice to see people helping out. Dont really see that too much these days.
