Histogram Mash and a trispok? That might be me, my commute takes me that way around 8:30?

Most likely you then pal. Not to many fixie skidders in that part of the woods. To be fair, if there was another mash within a 2 mile radius I'd be surprised. I'm the dick on the Fort bro-pro with the yellow fade

Nope.

JahTim has a white Oak and enormous purple turban.

(not a euph)

Oh, I've definitely seen him. Nice, clean and functional looking bike with phil hubs (i think), and a wicked safety turban.

I spotted a guy heading south by the Clapham Sth Tesco yesterday morning on a mash with black front spok. The above posts reminded me and now I wonder if this is the same chap.
Also, I've seen the another guy a few mornings on a yellow Schwinn with chrome rear triangle heading up the CS7 by Clapham, and then his bike again hanging off a light post outside the Hope in Farringdon. Very much "on here" looking

Paging nellyrodders?

Cheers Hugo, my thoughts exactly. Watch this space - a garish build is on the way.

any suggestions welcome

?

I'm looking to build a cheap fixed CX / commuter (similar to that amazing Dolan on the forum). Will these forks kill me? I'm hoping to offset the stiffness of the alu forks with a fat arse tyre. Thoughts?

^Amazon

Shit mate, I'll take that rear hub with dodgy spokes etc. pm sent

I'll take the cranks if they are still free. Pm sent

I'll take that fluro pink saddle of you hands. I'm not sure what for yet, but a new build needs to start somewhere...

^story of my life.

dibs please pming

just give me 2 mins to check steerer length...

Quick off the draw - I was about to PM you about these.

Looking at that I only see one game on - ENG vs AUS?

the springbok bar is now an "Adventure Bar", so quite shit. Whilst a bit ropey, the Blythe Spirit in Balham (if thats near your manor) is a good opton as they have a quite a few screens and different areas and will play what ever you ask them in the way of sports.

I put a ghetto fade on my Fort with the halfords paint and it came out better then I expected (actually, better then I wanted as I was going for the shit beater look). I'd defo use halfords over plasti-kote

Thanks Tester, helpful as ever.

Next questions.

1. Can you cut threads into a titanium steerer? (forgive my poor knowledge of metals and their properties.)

2. Does anyone have some nice carbon forks, preferably straight blades, with a 1" threaded steerer that is 22cm (or longer) in length... That I can afford.

I have some kenisis K2's you can have for next to nothing. Not straight blade, but hey. 23cm-ish steerer. I'm after some steel forks I can fit fatter tires into...

I'll get in line for this as well. I've pm'd you re. Wheels, so let me know if this is free and I'll grab it to. Cheers

I'll take both if still free. I'm SW6, so can pick up tomorrow. Pm sent

^I think the frame builder is the only commonality between the two. Different dropouts, seat cluster, tube size...

^^I would ride that with pleasure after pushing the rear wheel back in the drop outs a wee bit.

Good predictions Bobbo. I think the main bone of contention would be Wales vs. Arge's. I think Wales will take it by less then 7. Argintina will be looking to move the ball a bit more then normal though as was seen in the new rugby Championship.

And yes, the Scot's have no chance against the the AB's, but i think 30 points is unlikely. 14 points and change me thinks.

CB - not too many options I'm afraid unless you head south. I went to the last AB's vs. SA game at the Temple walky and it wasn't too bad, but just too busy and the queue at the bar seriously impacted my drinking. There's a Canadian pub in Convent Garden that sometimes plays rugby, so that maybe worth a punt.
