Another one shot down.

This should serve as sufficient warning to others.

I know I've learned my lesson, just hope my girlfriend doesn't go looking at my history!

I'm looking at the Novatecs with DP18, what's the weight of these ones?

Any idea on the weight of these yet?

If you like that, you'll love Veronica Moser

I so wish I didn't google Veronica Moser, I was expecting some top Italian totty........

Doesn't say on the pack but they are large enough for wearing with 'normal' shoes according to the blurb on t'interweb.

Un-used and still in packet, black double straps with chrome double toe clips. £20 + postage, I can include a pair of Wellgo R025B pedals (blue) for an extra fiver if required.

I went out with no helmet on Sunday and almost took a tumble, but I made the mistake of telling my girlfriend about it.......... that started a long lecture about protecting my skull & a ban on riding helmetless. My argument that I was wearing a cap that matched my top just didn't wash (Although she suggested I buy a new helmet to match the top!)

I used to own a Fuji track and was really impressed with it, I doubt you'll get a better bike for that kind of money.

She has not been well served by lad mag photographers, but in principle I agree that she can cause inappropriate thoughts when photographers play to her**** strengths****

Looking at that middle pic, I see what you did there!

I'm looking at the Novatecs with DP18, what's the weight of these one?

Oops. Faux pas committed on first post.

Anything else I should be avoiding as well?

Me probably!

My theory is that HS sells the same item to several individuals before realizing due to multiple threads/sales/jumbles etc that it has already been sold to several individuals before you've dibs'd. The 'lost in the post' 'will offer a refund', is a polite and intentionally honorable excuse.
Struggles to follow through though....

Just a theory..but definitely a recurring story.

It concerns me that in his email about an item I enquired about he wrote:
"PLEASE confirm after you have made your payment and THEN send me your NAME and ADDRESS."
How does he know to keep an item for someone if they haven't even told him they are buying it until after they have paid for it?

Thanks for your help guys, I think I'll give 'em a go!

I emailed Hilary this morning, got a reply this afternoon!

On reflection, I should have posted this on the bikes & bits section, whoops........

dips toe in water

Wotcher. Just about to build up an old Ciocc SLX frame as a**** fixie****. Here for advice, classified bargains and timewasting at work purposes.

My advice would be not to call it fixie, it's fixed! But welcome anyway, hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

I was having a look at SKS Raceblade in my LBS, they look pretty crappy in my opinion, question is do they do the job they are supposed to? Anybody used them that can recommend them or not as the case may be?

why would the england team worry about australia? they will be concentrating on their own plans/training not what other teams are doing, don't be surprised if England win nothing in april, because they will possibly not even travel to the next round. wouldn't be surprised if the just send the kids.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but last time I checked Sir Chris was from Edinburgh!

Such total excellence!

Did anyone else think they had double vision at first glance?

Hi Polco! Welcome to the world of Fixed again. I totally agree with you on that damn word. Stupid word. Have fun and enjoy the friendliest forum on the internet.

Thank you kindly, I can tell your a man of good taste. Unless of course your a woman......

Anybody use diesel for chain cleaning? Seem to remember it being commonplace years ago but nobody heard of it these days!

unless its a Pea

That made me chuckle!

Here's me with my bike in full flow, handsome, eh?

Hello, another newbie here! I'm a returnee to the world of fixed (can't bring myself to say fixie, what's that all about?) Been lurking a while but thought this looks like a good place, so here I am :-)
