when my indicator bulb blew on my 125, I could only get clear bulbs to fit. I used an orange sweet wrapper, worked fine

holdsworth's in putney

friendliest shop in SW London, very helpful and excellent service

No doubt a stupid question, but what's the advantage of hanging up your bike?

(not directed at Sparky, more to do with those hangers you can buy)

if I left the bike on the floor in my 6 foot hallway, it would be in the way because of the handlebars

in the air it wouldn't be a problem

the hanging idea is winning at the minute

Ffs

Paint your wife blue, you got yourself a deal

I've got half a pack of Fruit Pastilles I found down the back of the sofa

you can make up the rest with cash if you want, PM me

skully, those brackets look like a good idea, I might take one off your hands in the near future

A guy from work came off the other day because someone with a phone stepped out without looking, he didn't even stop to help, just carried on crossing the road chatting away

Polonium bikes FTW

whoa

Hahaha, I should have expected answers like these:)

As my bikes have steadily got nicer over the last couple of months, I have started coming to the realisation that I am very soon going to have to leave something quite nice, outside to face the elements.

I can get away with a frame under the settee and wheels hanging in the airing cupboard, but when my new bike is going to be fully built I can't see it going down well if I say it MUST be kept indoors

I have tried weaning the mrs onto the idea of keeping a bike inside our 1 bedroom flat by just leaving my bike inside, working on it in the kitchen etc, but I know she's the opposite of keen on the idea.

My outside space is under a balcony, so it's not like leaving it in the open, but it's still exposed to a wet and constantly changing atmosphere

I'm considering getting a moped cover or something. In my last flat I had a similar situation for my motorbike and used a waterproof cover under a stairwell which worked okay, but not brilliantly

What do you do?

...Do something insane to anger the bike goods, like mix Campag and Shimano, and your toes will fall off in your sleep. Fact!

Oh no, I nearly done this :(

thanks for the warning

I'll take the bars if they're still going, PM on the way

.

I am interested in the seatpost (dependent on size) if you fancy splitting

if i was to crash it would of snapped the whole leaver !

I snapped 2 brake leaver's™ on my motorbike, just the ends came off

so there

I just pull a wheelie until I'm on a straight again

Cycling is making me poor, but that's due top my obsessiveness and passion for fiddling, fannying, making things shiny, buying stuff I dont need etc. My transport is my main hobby, so I don;t care if it costs me more than the tube.

If I had a car I would spend more on it just to keep it going, I don't know how people who don't have a very good job afford to run a car, it's a money black hole. At least with my bike parts I can flog them all again if I need to pay the rent.

My friend is now £14,000+ in debt because he wanted a Golf GTI. Dunce. If I had even £1000, I would have got a 125 motorbike again and possibly another bicycle, and have waaaay more fun

Cheers Scott, I'll have a look at that when I get a chance

the new forks have either the same or less rake. Just need to chop an inch off the steerer, get a new seatpost so I can fit my Turbo, match the tyres up... this is going to look shit hot

I saw this at BLB this morning. Gorgeous Baby Blue!

like a lime Opal Fruit, it makes my mouth water

cool Bio

Also, what the fuck - people video themselves opening shit, put it on the internet, and then other people actually watch it?

I don;t understand

What a fucking dunce
