no, I know you're trolling

likewise, and thanks very much

comments on their facebook are as enjoyable (or devastatingly depressing) as ever

I've already got them at mine, sorry guys

not much, but also saves those lovely little holes at the axle end just under the axle hole which you can use to mount mudguards, should you ever want to

the bolts are there, they are just inside the stem, accessed with an allen key, the front bolt is recessed in the bit leading to the bars and when tightened pushes forward a plate clamping your bars between it and the front of the 'hole where your bars go', and the bit that goes in your frame has an expander bolt. these work really well, same design and 600dx

excuse the innuendo in the above paragraph

you know what, having seen the detailed photos I think the chap might have a point, the build is pretty ugly

dibs, can pick up tonight if that's ok

It's not to difficult. The basket should be level when the handlebar clamps face straight down to prevent it from moving. Mark where the axle should be. Saw them both evenly from the bottom and squeeze in a vice to flatten them out before re-drilling. Also use different bolts on the handlebar clamps. They're shit. I guess its what you pay for.

^That is a lovely bike.

this, it's really easy to do as the metal's so soft and makes it look so much better. I found it was easier to saw them off and redrill at the top rather than and the axle end of the struts

yamaguchi trick frame...hideous, though I'm not sure if it could ever be made to look good

at the expense of bumping an old thread, I've just received a pair of these and thought they might be a good recommendation for others. They have a large fit, both baggy and large around the waist as they are designed to go over other trouser,s but look and feel like quality, have velcro straps around the ankles so you can tighten them there and they wont go in your chain, and are gore tex

they also look a bit smarter than your regular over trouser. At just over £30 I don't think there's much that could beat them. I'm a 29" waist and bought a small, which is a little too large for me but the pull cords at the waist do them up tight enough. Delivery time was not long either.

Having said this I have not yet tried them out in the rain so all this advice might >>>>>>>>>

interesting slideshow of images take on a mobile phone of the riots as using decent cameras was not an option

I think it looks awesome

ok, so I've got the Gamoh king jr, first impressions are not great, it looks the bomb, but I can't see many reasons why anyone should buy it over a wald other than looks (and I suppose durability but I won't find out if that's true until I've used it for a while). I'll try and get up some pics and write a proper little review this week, there's some tricks I've learnt along the way that might be helpful to share

I'm getting a gamoh today I hope so will report back. I can say that Wald 137 which I have used for the past few months is very nice, and works perfectly, not requiring eylets (bolts straight onto the axle).

toby d and bmxed again make this thread (with associated help of course).

Thanks guys, one of the best threads on the forum

I'm after a pair (or one if you only have one) of 28x700c tyres, would like tan walls but that's not essential. Not too fussy about condition either so long as they'll last a couple of months, basically looking to find something cheap.

Thanks

tenderloin, does that mean you don't need my aliums?

got this, not actually a concor, but exactly the same shape, black suede, very good condition

£18?

dibs (if this works like that)
