Anyone know anything about Geoff Smith bikes? I know there's a shop in Bolton, and Geoff was an Olympic rider in the early '80's (Wikipedia - same one?)
Not sure they made frames but can anyone shed any light on mid-80's f&f they might have built / badged? Have sent a mail to the shop in case as well.
cheers

Always get really (painfully) cold thumbs at the moment. Would any of the above help with that - am on a really tight budget :-(

Double good.
Will try the slack-nut-n-bolt method first and if that fails will hit evilbay (terrific price there.)
Cheers for the borrow offer, live and work in The Oxfordshire so not so simple for a loan drive-by.

Sad to hear Pangbourne's not mincer (or mulled wine)-friendly territory.
Will go hunting for places around here that understand what constitutes proper 'pie and report back.

Ah, that actually is. Cheers. will give that a go :-)

I've single-handedly failed to install these, and now have a hole in the frame to let water in :-(
Tried the wheel-hub / skewer / diy tool method.
Should I buy a rivnut setting / pulling tool and if so, any ideas what I should buy and where from? Or what's the trick with the nut and bolt mentioned by @danstuff?

Unlikely second dibs...

Mincecoin investment index?

Would say white... or these in red!

:-( sorry

Fairly sure I've a still got a black-finish Weinmann concave front, clincher, but a 700 not a 27" (have the pair, rear is a 6spd heliothingy but that rim's badly dented so happy to let the front go.)
Is in the shed, can check tonight and send you pics - if you don't get something sorted sooner? I'd need to post it to you... :-(

So we just scraped the warm-up test?
Reads like the real negotiations on trade might be, erm, quite a bit harder:

Flippin' freezy-cold headwind all the way in and no snow 3/10

This, all the way.

Surely a knighthood awaits.

It's c̶o̶m̶p̶u̶l̶s̶i̶v̶e̶ convulsing reading.
"Davis says he is already late for his next appointment."
Please, make it stop...

So much fucking mud on the roads home, had to stop and clear under the mudguards. Was like riding with a coaster brake on.

Or as I just read, 'regulatory alignment' could be “a bespoke arrangement involving technology and others (sic) things.”
So basically whatever you want it to mean.

Have also been puzzling...
Started to write it all down, then gave up - ended up contradicting myself.
Decided that the prefix of choice ('alignment') simply means the same rules / laws as the UK (currently 'in' the EU) but re-minted as 'our own' (so “'parallel' regulatory regimes")? So 'brexit, means...' no need for a hard border as nothing 'regulatory' has changed...
However, mindful I have no idea really.

Like with puppies, introducing them to other docs? Sorry, dogs.

And in the hedges all round here as well - I call them dogberries.
Perhaps they're waiting for the council drone collection service.
