Tighter hip angle means more power though surely...

put some grips and bar ends on that and it's slave.

FSA cranks never slave. Ugly dropouts too.

I got bitten by a random spider, I also just found two bite marks on my hand. My hand and lower arm all swelled up and went oozey. Had some ulcerated bit in the middle, quite gross really.

I really want to ditch my hybrid thing, and my road bike and do all my city riding on a BMX with a really high gear and clipless pedals.

They are just like internet trolls but in real life, the totally undeserved infamy & celebrity status is exactly what they want and enjoy.

I think part of their infamy is ironically a reflection of similar social/psychological conditioning which is neither fully rational nor consistent.

Phelps on his way out.
Some good news for a change.

Why do people care so much about him and westboro? Its only a bunch of 70people with shouty signs. How are they able to emotionally unsettle so many people around the world?

I have done this to my dad.

Can someone help me find the homepage or contact details for artist susan philipsz ?

ok its not the paint. its the logo's..

You cant by charm, those logo's have that.

Posters question was about where to buy flac or wav files.

Obviously flac is a no brainer. But legally purchasing them is problematic I guess. Small artists usually sell directly in a number of file formats, and for the big ones. Well you could just torrent.

~~Dont underestimate DJ's point. Road frames are extremely similar, especially when you narrow it down to "classic steel". Seriously just figure out what your correct size is, if you dont know get a beater with approx dimensions for £50 and figure out what tweaks in proportions you need.

Then hit ebay, bike forum classifieds & bike jumbles. Pick the one with the best tubing for your budget and there you go.~~

Go get a sweet foffa & customise it with aerospokes.

OMG its just clicked that DR WHO is the epitome of lecherous older men in the BBC. The programme started up right in the golden years of BBC kiddy fiddling and features a very old man repeatedly abducting teenage girls and taking them inside his magical caravan tardis for secret fun that nobody must know about.

The end you clamp your AHead stem to; it has no solid attachment to anything else until you get to the wedge/cone inside the steerer, several inches away. If it's a wedge, you can also be pretty certain that the axis of the quill will be skewed from the steerer axis, see Chris King on facing AHead stem for why this a bad thing.

I totally get what tester is saying now, this bodge is definitely a bad idea! With a threaded headset you lock up the nuts so there is perfect tension (preload?) on the headset bearings, and of course perfect alignment.

Same goes for threadless, you adjust the preload with the star nut bolt thing, and the alignment will be right.

With this bodge, the adapter is becoming an extension of the steerer, but like tester said it will probably be wonky! Imagine a threadless steerer that was for some reason bent. Those bearings are going to die, real quick!

You have to go buy a 1" aheadset to find out, hard to get hold of.

I would, but the fork now does not protrude above the headset

If you have enough steerer to get the headset top nut on, they its fine - threadless adapter will work. Or quill stem for that matter!

If you have no threadspace to affix headset your fucked.

-edit-

I just figured out what you were suggesting. Using a threadless aheadset in combination with quill adapter. With the right headset this might just work.

That bike is trying too hard. Its a utilitarian sort of thing ffs. If it was all black and the gratuitous parts like thomson swapped out and what seems to be an excessively high end groupset it would functional hotness.

You make it sound like they are getting these bikes for free and so don't give a damn about them. Tell me more about these thieves...

There seemed to be some sentiment above that thieves would not have a pop at a bike secured with the sheldon method, because they wouldn't think it was worth losing the value of rear wheel etc..

You probably already know this, but most travel insurance excludes bikes, so be wary of that.

Does anyone know how to make a really good traditional Pilaf/Pilau?

Ideally someone from a country than ends with "an". Im Bengali myself, and sure we are the kings of curry. But our versions of it are bollocks. Plus I cant even get that right. I suck at cooking rice, add the whole ghee thing to the mix and I create a mess everytime.

There is certain flavourings in good versions that I dont even recognise, and subtlety too.

The red would look a lot better without decals I think.

The logos are very geeky looking. Plain black lettering or none at all. You should swap out cables for black also.

Repped, love the sentiment here.

£50? Nice hoodie...

In defense, back when kids used to buy their clothes from skateboard shops, like in the 90's. The standard price for a skate brand hoody was £65. These were generic not at all special hoody's with a screen print of the relevant brand. Everyone used to happily buy this stuff, not like rich streetwear slaves but normal kids.

This fixie hoody seems like they have put a lot of effort in to make it interesting and different. So fair play I say.

Thieves dont give a fuck
They happily due the rotating a bike to break a d-lock method, which totally fucks up the frames.

maybe ill get a third

I bought two sets just because
