if you've got a slow spinning, high torque drill/access to one (ive got one if u live near camberwell) then def drill and buy a new style brake! in my opinion its by far the best option!

1 - Brakes on a NMSW
2 - Ghastly coloured rims
3 - No tape on bars
4 - over mattached tt pad, nothing else on the bike matches.
5 - nondrive side photo

It looks a bit odd, but i quite like it!

dia compe 806 (though they are long reach)...
also, i think brick lane bikes have some in - give them a call.

threaded?

if you can't get regs or anything, all you have to do left is to HTFU and remember to take regs next time, weren't there any witnesses seeing the incident?

that's not very nice...

yuk. sticker left on chainring, headtube spacers and stoopid angled stem, colour matching fail on the headset, arrospok and drops, I could go on....

antiporn..

nah mate, i believe u have it wrong. that bike looks dope!

Ahhh yes I did you were trackstanding at the lights as I turned right.

nice to almost make your acquaintance. maybe see u again...

tottenham can't get relegated!

Might have been me, I go through there morning and evening via The Cut and me and the bike definitely fit the description :D

Yeah, probably was - bloke (you) was pulling out from the cut as i was coming up from elephant...
ive got ridiculous luminous yellow rims...maybe u saw them?

never bought an ahead stem before, though palnning to get something nice - i like the look of some of the thomson's ive seen...

cheers dude!

not such a great idea then...

nice one bro, i did a little search on chicago fixed gear.com and came up with the same shop.
do u reckon i can get phils/chris king etc cheaper over there than here?

71.4 gear inches - so prob not very spinny....
why did u go for 15 on the back?

i like mate!
brake cable is monstrously long tho!
nice and classy looking! :)
what ratio is it, looks quite spinny.

I know it's random, but does anyone know of a shop that sells fixed bits and pieces in Chicago??
My GF's going and i thought it'd b an opportunity to get some cheap(er) stuff...

agreed

saw some bloke on what looked like a stealth bike today outside Waterloo station - didn't really get a proper look at the bike tho... was clipless, looked brakeless and quite nice... bloke was of a slightly bigger build but definitely looked like he could handle his bike.
some nob on a mountain bike undertook him and me stupidly, and then got blitzed at the lights!

forms coz i used to be a vandal!

Both! I have threaded and threadless forks for my new track bike (columbus steel) so I don't have to decide. If you ask really nicely they will only be an extra 50-60 quid. Whatever, make sure you get a 1inch head tube.

really... i didn't know you could do that!
although that would be great, and 60 squid isnt a lot of cash in the long run - i'm pretty broke and am already spending far too much on this bike. gonna stick with the ahead decision.
it's for the best.

lol - i'd never put looks completely aside but performance and usability are key.

sorry bro, i agree that quill looks more classy and in fact generally better - but you cant deny that RPM's got a point!

that rep was for RPM (beat to the punch)

+1

I'm getting a custom mercian built up and i've decided to go with Ahead.
Was wondering what the rest of you would go for and why?
