This sounds like it was probably me. Morning to you. What were you on?

Fair enough, glad we got to bottom of it. I'd offer you a digestive and cinnamon tea but this being the internet makes it difficult!

No, I don't so. Unless your point was actually "riding without straps is really stupid and totally indefensible given the price for which a pair of straps can be purchased for however I expect on this forum everyone is aware of this and it's a subject that has been beaten to death much like the brakeless debate so can we stop pointing out safety problems we're aware of and get back to posting rad bikes."

Is that what you really meant because it sounded a lot more like "Lolz u guiz sound leik roadie nerdz and not sik fixeh skiddaz. we haz no break coz we r 4 real"

You've still created an 'us' and 'them' based argument and I can only hope your last two sentences are utterly tongue in cheek, but I doubt it.

All the chevrons plz >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It's not. It's like people wanting people to be able to control their bikes properly.

Afraid I've not no. I can say I will be getting my frame and forks done with them in the very near future though.

Unsure if this is helpful to you but it's Cole Coatings that does the work for Seabass right by their Peckham shop. Their instagram is https://instagram.com/colecoatingsworkshop/ which should give you an idea of their work, if you've not already seen it that is!

@ioreka Just occurred to me I might be able to get one for you to borrow, pester me about it so I don't forget!

Guy on a brakeless Fuji(?) last night blasting up from E&C towards Oval, enjoyed the trail of broken promuters you left behind.

Could you stop taking up all of Matt's time please Laner, some of us also want forks!

Just to say I believe they now offer frame repairs too.

My partner just got some Lezynes we're going to use an extension cable like this for each light to connect to an Anker 5-port charger we already have.

If they do have Paypal account they can send you an invoice, you'd just need to supply them your related email address.

Only if you're lying and it wasn't the thing that made you happiest.

Does he smoke the reefa?

In a couple of weeks I should have one to get rid of if it's any help. 1 1/8, about 230mm steerer, post mount, matte finish. Would only want about £15 for it. PM me if you want pictures or anything more details.

Aye that's me and all but I didn't realise you were you either so I think we're even in that respect.

I'm not usually remotely as quick as that and will keep my eyes open to say hello next time!

Hi to you too!

Apart from the young and fast bit that sounds like me (Jersey is the forum famous NLTCBMBC.) Was this by Brockwell Park heading towards Tulse Hill? In any case hi!

in reply to>

Teenage me would have happily taken either, but I see your point. Would still rather have the Curtis though.

While I'm here.

This one?
I pretty much lusted after all the Marins of that era, my dad had a Bolinas Ridge when I was little which was swiftly stolen and replaced by the insurance company by an awful Dawes. /csb etc

Wald 137 now sold.

Sorry clearly wasn't thinking straight when I replied first!

To re-answer: yes you can use a standard 1 1/8" top cap with them. Not that it should have any effect if you're running a quill but the allen bolt they (used to) give with those was barely long enough to meet the threads in the larger bolt it screws in to making setting preload on an ahead a real pain.

As an aside I thought those BBB extenstions come in two variants? A version with 22.2mm OD and then spacers that have a 25.4mm OD, or a version with 25.4mm OD and spacers with 26.8mm OD. So the 22.2mm OD lower end would fit in the 1" steerer but the 25.4mm spacers would then be equal to a standard 1" steerer OD ? So you'd either need to use a 1" ahead stem or a shim and 1 1/8" stem. All of which is easily done of course and superfluous to your original question.
