keep an eye out on the ebay/craigslist finds thread. some really good stuff do show up there. give us more idea about what you think is "decent". personally i always find decent frames on ebay going for quite good prices. loads of us here have scored 531 road frames for less than 60quid.

only other thing i can think of would be bike jumbles, but i do not know of any coming soon that's not too far away from london.

whole bike for 199!!! grab'em before dafoney comes

it looks even better in this picture it's sooo full of road grit.

hell yeah when you coming to get the saddle? shame i didn't realise you were to show up at MASH.

and with OS X's virtual memory system you can really kill your hard drive with not enough ram.

i've ridden my mate's 2005 langster and it feels quite nice to be honest it's light, quick and zippy, even with the original forks. i don't know about the new ones, but to be fair i think the frame is not bad. but if you want comfy i think the lemond would be the more comfy option. the slacker seat tube angle and steel frame would make it more forgiving.

still, by the end of the day, it's best to try it out yourself. just make sure the shop get the bikes adjusted properly for you before you go and test it.

and for the 56cm flyer you tried, i'm still very sure it's the setup rather than the frame. if it's the frame it only means that you need a larger one.

for what you do even a macbook is overkill :)

what a lot of people don't notice apart from the video card is the architecture, the bus on the pro is faster than the macbook so with the same processor and the same amount of RAM you'll still have quite a lot of performance advantage. that was the same kind of difference between the imac g5 and the powermac g5 back then.

the pro's got much better build quality too. the aluminium casing can really take one hell of a beating that plastic can only dream of.

JOL, that's got to be one of the best!

billa depends if they shag it or not on a regular basis, i have my twisted bareknuckle remains next to my bed at all times

you remind me of

hippy Dumb People use "Ebay = Cheap" as their online purchasing mantra.
It doesn't always work, especially when the item is something common.

basic economics, supply and demand. i'm still waiting for the day i find track frames in skips.

no worries, didn't shout since i only remember seeing the bike somewhere on the forum... took me a while to find that pic again to find out who it is...

do it properly, use css to style and navigation should be done using a list with div's if you want fancy pants graphics

hippy's got 2 crank pullers, one's called 31, the other's called dogsballs.

those are SR custom cranks should be quite standard i think?

please use search. loads of threads about hubs - pros and cons etc.

that chart's quite old, check the site

520 is 525 made under license

yeah but it's worth the cash. a phil hub deserves a phil cog. period.

if you're shelling out to buy an EAI why don't you just get a phil cog??

no worries mate, if wasn't for a quiet road i would have almost killed myself i don't want anyone to try that.

agree with jos, how far past the limit is it on the seatpost? it's 653 thin man, better not risk it.

spotted CHUG_IT with a mate yesterday on charing cross road walking their bikes round noon. i was the dude on the blue bike outside monty python spamalot selling handlebars to juliettyspaghetti

i thought of getting the original mini cooper... but still looks like a bike represents me best...

you're all wise cornelius, i agree with you totally... until you admitted to taking a night bus... :P

nah, wise words mate.

nothing beats those forks WITH the anatomic bars. ace piece of shit!

at least i can still spell "definitely" :P

you're drunk!

i ride a 51cm track frame and buy my clothes in the "S" size. i normally just pedal harder and you bet i still haven't used my d-lock for its alternative purpose.
