It was before the what happened next.... ;)

Christ. Don't tell me. You need to rebuild the left side of that beautiful bike. After sliding it along the tarmac. Not-so-superman stylee.

I'd just about got the oooooh sh...bit out of 'oh shit' at this point.

Lovely bike.

So in a crude attempt to demonstrate:

Like those a lot. I kind of agree with fanny pack about the corporate thing, but then simple, sharp designs like these work on anything, because they'll usually compliment the existing bike decals.

Who was it that started 'making' those swagger bikes? His logo across the toptube was exactly what not to do - all wavy and out of place.

Cranks sold.

BB STILL FOR SALE

Ok, should point out that the two are NOT compatible though.

Collection from east landan, Bow, E3.

1) SHIMANO BB 5500 (to fit Octalink DURA-ACE, ULTEGRA and others) £20

109.5mm - Generally the right length for fixed gear with shimano. Fits DURA ACE FC-7700/FC-7703, ULTEGRA FC-6500/FC-6503

This is the cheaper version of the Dura-Ace BB, and fits all V1 Octalink DURA ACE cranksets, some of the ULTEGRA cranksets, and others (check the link below for compatibility). Bought for £30 new from cycle surgery (got reciept), and has seen light use for 7 weeks - running perfectly, so after £20. Should point out that it is covered in grease, and beneath that, looks brand new.

2) SHIMANO Tiagra Cranks, octalink. SOLD - Dixon

Bought this week, but not needed. 175mm, 130 BCD. NEW (but some VERY MINOR little scratches from poor packaging when delivered to me). I'm running an identical set on my bike at the moment with a normal 113mm octalink BB, and chainline is good.

I was actually after the BERP IV, like these. Do you have them?

I believe you are very wrong sir, bullhorns turn up at the end –

I believe you missed my joke - wait, sarcasm :p

Those chopped drops are just like inverted bullhorns.

not really, if you like the tops of drops but not the bottoms

I believe those are called bullhorns.

Harry.Major, do you cycle down fairfield road alot?

STILL NEED CRANKS

Anyone?

Possibly. Surely the best people to tell you would be BLB themselves.

BLB confirm. Fucked. At a time when I do not need this. So, anyone got any cheapish cranks for sale?

I own possibly the best high-vis vest EVER. Stolen one drunken night from outside a tube station where they were doing work. I give you:

The condom was my addition. I did a joke.

it happens, you gotta keep an eye on these things. i started a thread looking for a wheel, left it for a bit and by the time i got back to it maybe 2 or 3 had been sold to other people from it, haha.

cranks are elusive bastards sometimes.

Ha, yeah it's frustrating. And I've had a bad couple of days, so I'm all grumpy too. Watching other people cycle while I have to walk is painful.. :p

Yeah I know you did, i'm just a little annoyed. Just think it's a little 'un-gentleman-like' of him considering it's an offer made to me in my thread, and I pm'ed him myself only an hour after his post. But meh, i'll find some more.

I'll take those if the OP doesn't want them.

Moog has them, I still need cranks!

PM'ed

SORTED NOW, thanks for the replies

So I'm having the same problem as the OP, left crank keeps coming loose. Except it isn't coming out horizontally, it just has about 10mm rotational play no matter how hard I tighten the bolt. Cranks fitted by BLB about a month ago with a brand new BB. Fucked?

Don't suppose you have one of those annoyingly small 24.2 seatposts by any chance?

Ok guys, tk was the first to pm me with an offer to be fair to him, so shorts go to him. Will post again if anything happens.

@JapeS, the zefal is yours, will reply to your PM now.

Not really sure on price, so i'll say a tenner, I think that's fair. Kx, they're yours if you want for a tenner, otherwise rik can take them. Havn't heard anything more from tk.

Width 4.2cm, length 24cm.

Ordinarily I'd meet you, but I have a super busy week this week I'm afraid. Will be at Liverpool Street for a bit tomorrow morning though?

See first post - east, E3, Bow

Errr, well I paid 13 quid for it, it's basically new, so a tenner maybe?
