yeah, which is fine. I had a BB30 cross bike for years with no creaks

you can yup. To be honest the 13 in person is actually a very nice bike and a perfect british bike. I think i prefer it over the 12. The 12 also has such shit internal routing

Probably not noticeable unless you are a very srs expert

This is what i figured. I switch between a 100mm and 85mm stem and barely notice the difference tbh

If i swap out my 51 offset forks to some 44 offset forks how will it effect my steering ?

SLX and a BH90 hose with a banjo

how much?

I'm after some 11spd STIs, any condition and the cheaper the better.
I'm not in LDN so will probably need posting

Thnx babes x

I'm having so much of the classic "we've got to order in those parts and our suppliers are running a bit slower than normal currently so i'll give you a call in a few day'

next day at 8am "is my bike ready?"

To bring more justification into it I see it this way. You as a mechanic/shop have a better insight of both worlds. In both professional and non-professional life you are a customer. I could say that you are more often a customer than is you client a mechanic. And if you understand the customer situation it should be quite easy to approach it. Being pro-active/active and even re-active of its fair expectations is the right approach.

You're missing the fact that everyone i know who's worked behind the curtain in "retail" will let sooooo much slide when we are customers because we know how shit it is.

Also the feeling of you bike being in the shop for 2/3 days to you is what it your bike being in the shop for 2 weeks feels like for me because i have 30 people who'd like a call in 2/3 days.
Believe me i'd love to get your pain in the arse job out of the store room asap but it's just not possible atm

Comunication is key. From my experience, clients are very understandable with difficult situations and they would accept delays providing that they are comunicated in time, and especially when people inquire about them.

To be honest, working at a bike shop atm i haven't got time to communicate anything.

no company would warranty that

that 50 was including parts so only a 5er more

I dunno what you mean by fender disc but the rest sounds spot on.
Going rate is is £50 for the rear hinge and £25 for the mainframe/stem

if you're under 6'1" buy an L if you're over buy an XXL, it's simple

Oh nah that's totally fair enough, you do you. I just wanted to point out whyte are actually held in pretty high regard

also their £500 bikes have the same geo as their 2 grand bikes which a lot of people like

they ride incredibly well and their top end bike is "only" 5 grand, which makes it a surprisingly easy sell

Not very cool though are they?

off the internet Whytes are "cooler" than santa cruz tbh. Free linkage bearings for life goes a long way.

All the plasterers vans in the trial centre carpark will have a t-150 in

I'm probably gunna move over to the world off discs on skinny tyres some time soon.
What kinda money could i get for this? ( i might even wiped it down)
Highlights are the enve bits, full RED22 (i can put a RED chain on it), Ceramic bearings in the wheels, Hi-Mod forks

Dibs the transion if you ever sell

yes

it's flat ffs

Maybe the fact it's quite a lot too small for you?

Well yeah. Ideally i want a Boone but i thought i'd ask here

only the 853 CDFs have di2 routing
