Your headset isn't adjusted properly, not the stem.

It's much safer Turing your bell.

Bike photo porn. Too far away to tell what it is but looks nice.

I really like that.

Doesn't it come down to what you find fun?

Fingers crossed for them, lucky they were so near A&E as those minutes saved are crucial.
I had a very near miss just now with a driver not looking in the direction he was driving, had a good shout at him saying how he nearly added to the statistics.

The RLJ one could be done in the style of a WW1 trench. Machine gunners on either side, no-man's land in the middle as the lights change, cyclist thinking of going across but all the gunners eyeing him up in their sights.

Few ideas that I just thought of:

*Clown on a unicycle/other ridiculous bike, circus music, cruising around town weaving in traffic and generally being a pillock. Gets in an accident, the tag of "It wasn't funny then, it isn't funny now"

• Cyclist with a chameleon head, eyes looking in all directions. Angle of 'keep your eyes on what's happening around you'. Could develop this a bit to have cyclist with eyes in the back of their head, saying 'you don't have this, so make sure you keep aware of what's happening'
  

I may not be able to help out on the editing front as we're snowed, but could shoot it. You're right about the hook/angle, it needs something to catch a viewer within 13seconds, make them laugh, say 'woah' or 'cool', or have some topical peg to make sure people send it on.
Will happily help develop ideas on this with everyone.

I was kidding.

I run StitchThat, making viral videos for a living. We also do directing, producing, DPing, editing, the lot.

Most important question is, who's paying?

Same problem I had with mine. Loosened it off a tad, drowned the thing in lube, wiped off the excess and now it's super quiet.

Lesson learned yesterday with a blowout on my way to get a new tyre. Dunno 79GI still doesn't feel like enough sometimes.

48/16. Think I might step it up on the front to 49 or 50 as I've had a few 'I want to go faster' moments. Will an extra tooth or two up front make a huge difference?

My teenage kids seem to win most arguments with my simply by saying "your mum".

I don't know why, but they seem to think it works.

This.

And with fixed you don't have to use your fingers to change gear, thus saving you valuable joules of energy better spent typing on this forum.

There have been some terrible accidents on that Peckham Road area. When I lived opposite the college a motorcyclist got dragged underneath an articulated lorry for 100yds before the driver noticed. Fucking horrifying.

Thoughts to the lady from today, hope she will be ok.

I run a video production company and started delivering tapes and whatnot to our clients on my bike instead of paying for couriers. Gets me out the office*, keeps me fit, saves us some dollar.

*The flat

Four-fucking-teen...

So true. I had to pay some fees recently, and it's so hard to use I actually couldn't work it out. When they emailed me telling me that 'court action' would be taken if I didn't pay, I emailed them explaining it wasn't the fact I didn't have the money, just that their system is retarded.

Ouch, I went through 25rolls of MF yesterday. The first few rolls were like firing pound coins into the sea. I've got to keep telling myself to not worry about how much it costs.

Then again, film pisses on digital.

Toe clips (cages) are the things which keep the straps held open, so yes, you should get both.

I've got some old 700c forks that came off my bike yesterday. Identical to those Tange ones, dark blue, bit scuffed though. Crown race still fitted, steerer is 196mm.

£15?

I was on Brick Lane this morning, before the festival thing started. It was fucking crawling with people then, not paying attention to anything other than themselves. Fuck knows what it's like now.

I can't stand Brick Lane at the best of times.

BB still for sale? Could take this off you later either tomorrow, or later in the week.

Just the standard BLB cranks, reckon this'll be ok because I'll order a BB soon as poss.

Right, I've measured my current BB at 107mm. The clearance problem getting a shorter one is actually the centre of the crank arm, which is about 3mm away from touching the BB shell now.
If I got a Sugino 103mm BB, is it risky running that close to the BB shell? If my measurements are even slightly out it's gonna scrape, or not tighten properly.

Does this mean getting some lower profile cranks as well?
