Tbf when i drove out to yours along the A363 i did question what kind of sadist would enjoy riding on this route!
Nice bike/bikes @hakatone - GLWS.
-
Bodywork assessment provisionally booked for later this month. First ULEZ trip will be to the tip in a few weeks to recycle a shit tonne of wood and metal which i think is how this is supposed to be done.
-
You sure? I have to nod and agree with architects all day long!
-
Aware of it but not got round to watching it yet. I've been making internet friends with a group of guys who cruise around Japan in old Saab's, hoping to meet to with them when i visit next year.
Speaking of, love this guys channel

Not sure why exactly
Anecdotal but it could have had something to do with the piss poor upkeep brought on by trade in options and maybe even extended warranties. I spent a lot of my youth being dragged around service shops that one by one folded through the 90s. A reoccurring comment when i asked them what was happening was that no one could or could be bothered to maintain there car anymore.
I suspect if you asked them today they'd say it was because of the forrins and tofu mob.

The Name of the Rose
One of those films i remember as it regularly featured in the video club at the back of my gran's Radio Times in the 80's. From memory it would be closer to the top left of the page with other grown up stuff like Witness, Killing fields and The Mission. Bottom right was for Porky's, Maniac cop and Emmanuelle.

More consistent atm yes but i don't think i've seen Carlos contain Max like Charles has done in the past. I like/rate both of them but always considered Charles the more genuine contender.
But maybe he'll be another Danny Ric, very talented, likeable, but couldn't get it together.
-
Probably not the first time i've said it this year but that was an enjoyable yet largely predictable race. Big day for Alonso, kudos to Palmer for predicting how close he would push Verstappen. Not sure if Perez is a shoe in for second this season but hoping for a Hamilton/Alonso battle for third.
Sad to see Leclerc's season falling away, Sainz seems to have the edge on him atm, maybe next week will bring a change of fortune...

Dreamy, just needs some period Cannondale bidons.
-
Fark that's good! Those wheels and that frame were meant to be together.
Last post 5 hours ago... Good luck with the new job!
-
Very much enjoying this page and all the silver wheels.
-
Pics of frameset and parts below, can include stem, post and fancy slimline spacer if wanted (but maybe not go faster purple bolts!).
-
Aw shucks, no worries dude, thanks back at you for that mahoosive bag of coffee!
See you round.

Sad times but i think i need to move this on to make space.
53cm Surly Steamroller frameset with lightly used Cane Creek 40 Headset, Thomson seatclamp and Silver Shimano brakes (correct drop). I wanted it a bit more stealth for commuting so it's been de-logo'd bar a seat tube graphic. Plenty of little marks if you get up close but no dents and it still looks tidy IMO. Think everyone knows all there is to know about these frames but this setup fixed with 35 knobblies was probably my most enjoyed bike in recent times. Unfortunately i now need something more mundane for my daily. I'll get some frame shots later but build pic below for reference (rear brake will be included).
Asking for £210>£200-SOLD
-
Now gone.
-
Cheers. Had a lurk last night, lovely bike and a good price. A month a go i would of snatched this up but new Arkose has set me in a new direction.
-
If you find a 25.4 stem i've got some cheap carbon bars
-
@Shannonball @Sebasbike Need to do some market research but current thoughts are £200 for frameset with Thomson clamp and very lightly used Cane Creek 40 headset or £500 for full build with new (well less than 50 miles) Arkane wheelset but with different cranks to the Omniums.
Leaning towards split rather than full build and have plenty of bits that could be negotiated into price.
-
Cool, lmk about 42 & 46 please
-
Anyone after a 53? I'm thinking of putting mine up for sale either as frameset or full build pending what would be more desirable.
-
Cool will get them later. Just did stealth edit about dog, she's short haired and not a stinker but something to consider.
-
This one
-
I've got a well loved but useable IKEA sofa i'm looking to shift if anyone fancies taking it away. One of the covers are ripped at the back and one half has a slight sag but it's got plenty of life left. Only moving on as it's just a bit too big for our needs. I'll get dims later but the feet frames and removeable to make transport easier. Note we have a dog that sleeps on this sometimes so wet vac might be desired.
Now gone.
-
It really is, can actually see myself wanting to ride this rather than just a means of getting around. Ordered some faster rolling tyres last night, just need to make sure this doesn't turn into fancy pants bike too quickly.

Some absolute bangers over the last few pages, always nice to see old Cannondale's live on. @Babyldn really lovely build, red frame with black groupset and silver finishing kit looks lush.
