RPM but why, when he can move to Wandsworth and wallow in the lowest council tax bracket in the whole of London?
Cos he rides a bike not a horse nor a BMW 4x4
-
Max No, they are chemically stripped and polished.
Ah, bugger, that explains why I couldn't find any. I'm guessing caustic soda and lots of polishing?
Has anyone ever tried striping dirty harrys? The mounts seems coated, I think its either thick paint or palstic. -
Factor in some hassle and suffering ££ for the bruises. Personally I reckon you'll do better going via the insurance company. No experience (yet) to base that on just intuition, but you'll get £ for a proper repair job on the thorn, damage to clothes, bruises £ etc. Do report the accident to the police anyway. A new Thorn frame plus clothes plus bruises got to be getting on for a grand or more. No way is that not going to be an insurance job.

South of the river? Yuck.
Not wishing to start a turf war but Hackney/Bethnal Green/Lower Clapton/Stoke Newington. -
guffer its called the odyssey mono lever and is avail in chrome and cost around £12.99 .
Cheers for that seems a def possibility.
-
Chris, do they do the gold fingers just in silver? All I have found or seen are gold/black, silver/black or black/black?
Cheers. -
Was going to fit dirt harrys to the fixed, but the change of frame has brought with it a minor change of colour scheme. Lots of caliper levers out there like the harrys with silver lever on black bracket, I may just decide to strip and polish, but can anyone point to nice silver levers? Lust after Paul Loves, but £££ ouch.

makes my frame look small...Damn! Takes a lot for me either diss a Mercian or a large frame, but that was at the front of the queue when they handed out the ugly sticks.
-
Sweet frame, sweet cranks at least a 9/10 minimum. Totally droolworthy.
-
Well, Hovis has just been over and looked at the frame, he (like everyone else) was of the opinion that it was too nice to paint so I'll try giving it a frou frou going over and then I'll build it up and see. After all if I did decide to powdercoat I could strip it, get it coated and built up all in a few days. Onward and upward said the one armed seagull.
-
22 3/4" Mercian frame, paints in bad nick but a £100 BIN.
-
Just been down the pub for the first time since the operation. Hmmm 1.5 pints plus pain killers = squiffy... I'm not going to rush this.
-
asm Is this going to be a fixie or a geared bike ben? (Also how's the arm/collarbone/whatever facilitated the need for a sling? This is alex by the way, was on foundation last year, friends with Aidan)
Its going to be fixed, and yes, don't worry I know asm=alex. I'm meeting with Hovis and gary tomorrow for a debate on the paint/not paint.
Sling thing is making progress but won't be riding for at least another 8 weeks according to the doc.
:( -
asm Me and Aidan will come and say hello to you next week ben, we'll both be round back hill at some point.
I'm hoping to be in on Tuesday as "normal" whatever that is, see you guys then?
-
Nice!
I've actually met a few of the guys one night with Hovis in the Duke of York ages ago(6-8 months). He was doing a parts swap with someone, can't remember who it was though, I'll ask him later. -
Still not up to going out for long. Might venture to the pub tonight for the first time since the crash. Had an op to put a plate on the broken collar bone last weekend so all going a bit slowly. One day I'll meet you guys face to face.
-
Nice old condor for the tallish (6'1"?) with some good bits, vertical drops though so would need new drops welded in for SS/FG. PS: Needs a repaint anyway.

TimHey Tim, long time no see, all well with you?
Big(ICA)Ben -
Rusty Ladies Dawes (guess cheap hi-ten steel) quite recent, locked to a house near me - E9 just off Mere St. Not sure what type of drops. I can put a sign on it if anyone is looking for a hack.

Just a thought from another clydesdale, all these weight ratings have a hefty (ahem) margin of error. I'm 107kg and constantly use ladders rated max 90kg. You pays your money and takes your choice. Maybe talk to Greg at London Fields Cycles, he's been a big help regarding wheel strength on my beater/tool carrying bike which often carries me plus and 20kg tools.
