I'm pleased with my 2nd hand Bagaboo, comfy fully loaded and wearing well. One of Scott's creations would've been top of the list at the time though if money weren't so tight.

Happy Birthday Bad Matt! See you later on this evening
-
JD, I'll leave work on time and meet you at about 6:30ish at the SA for a cider if you want?
-
I think Evans are either a bit confused or can't be arsed to order you one in. There's 181pcs of the 18T Shimano freewheel in stock here at Madison (with another future order ahead to the end of August), discontinued it is not. The part number is SFMX3018 if it's any use.
-
Nice! Thank god it aint my size as i would have to sell one of mine and get this one!
Not 650b either Justin! ;)
-
Glad the prizes went down well! Gutted no-one managed to snap JD toppling over. Top day Joe, hats off!
-
Shit, bike jacked in Camden?! I'll keep my eyes peeled as that's my neck of the woods. Got any more details on what happened?
-
True fact:
Overtaken by so-called roadies again...
Andy, on the first photo you look distinctly proud (and gay)!
-
What about meeting at LMNH to leave there at 6:30? Racing don't start til 7
+1
Conversation will be miles better with LMNH clientele. -
They were waiting on my desk when I got into work this morning. Was a nice serprise. Cheers for that.
Mega. They're meant to be samples of a design but I could see what was different about them. They should be good for the dorra they cost though.

You get the hubs ok nobface?

It seems the tealeaf scumbags have come out of hibernation with all the sunshine judging by the number of posts in this thread over the past couple of weeks. Keep em safe (as you can) people.

Pinched from bikeradar. Apparently they're riding BMX's to 'break down barriers with the yoof'. Nice concept, don't think it'll work. -
Sasmon, on Fortis Green Rd this morning after dropping Darcy off @ nursery. Morning Sir! Lovely morning for riding in

Hey, this is my first post too. I have a 2008 Flyer, the white one with carbon forks. I love the new paintjob but would hate to ride with a steel fork. Get some new carbon ones. And I agree with everyone else, the scum will be back, probably incredulous that you have an even shinier prize on offer.
I've had 3 bikes nicked in total, so I don't underestimate their ingenuity, the little buggers. A few months ago, My Dahon Speed Pro foldie was locked up outside Bayswater Waitrose with a big New York D-Lock. They somehow dismantled the frame by the hinge joint and walked off with it, putting it back together at their leisure later. Lock was intact of course, I still use it.
Even if they can't make off with your bike, (unlikely if they have boltcutters), they'll wreck it in some way to take out their frustration. Seriously scratch the paint, rip up the bar tape/saddle or something.
Gotta find a solution man, you're a sitting duck. Good luck.
The new steel fork actually rides comfier than the old carbon fork IMO - especially given the current state of the roads. Try having a spin on one if you get the chance, I think you'll be surprised. Sure it adds a bit of weight over the carbon fork but for 2010 we wanted to keep it @ it's £599 pricepoint whilst upspeccing the wheelset and chainset over the 2008/9 model. It was originally a cost-based spec choice but ended up working out really well in complimenting the ride.

No worries Simon, drop me a pm with your address and I'll get some out to you. I work for the distributor (Madison) so it's not too good to see some dealers neglecting to build them with the suuplied chrome clips.
-
The chrome clips are and should've been supplied with the bike, complete with clear sticky plastic to protect the paintwork underneath where they clamp onto the toptube. I'm guessing the mechanic who built it was in a bit of a hurry (or lazy) and opted for the quick and easy zip-tie method instead. Send me a pm with your address if you want the chrome clips and I'll stick a set in the post for you as we've got loads in the office.

Sorry I missed you Justin, bloody earphones. Would've loved a quick pint too!

LPG way north west on the Staples Corner flyover this evening heading into town. Sorry I didn't say hello - by the time I recognised you you'd already dropped the hammer and was off into the sunset! We were the two clowns trying to chase you down!
