do the ikea hack?

(might not be big enough)

@Arup - any progression on these workshops or have they died a death?

Loving the generosity, i have a lot to learn and very little to pay for the pleasure! will PM you in case you dont see this reply

Upstart, I'm interested but not sure about my stem size. Need to check. PM you.

Bars and stem you can have - £10 for the pair. Stem is 130mm though

SO SO so like - to use a facebookism!
I followed lfgss to get ride info and general banter, character assassination but just get bits for sale that I cant afford and stuff I dont like also!

Classifieds are the reason I'm not very happy about following LFGSS on Twitter. It's crazy how many twit-twuts appears daily and it's purely stuff for sale or wanted.

Restricting the forum to fixed and single as it is named works for me! I get confused when I read a thread then hear about gearing ratios etc! its lfgss not lfgssagb!

Classified's in a seperate area/portion of the sight would work for me. could be highlighted by a box around the title, or a different colour font, highlighted background?

colour coding each type of discussion topic - Bike porn, Classfieds, wank my bike, etc etc.

Mobile site - agree with the comment about upgraded phones! most peeps have smart phones these days. if not wait till your at a lappy or PC because you wont get much joy on one of those old phones!

my thrupenny bits!!

Ta Richoking, seems a lot of peeps are prima donas cause tatt's are cool these days. Thats fart and ashion I suppose. and long may it live!

@ Mr G - I had a piece done at Frith St and the guy who did it was amazing but the owner was a total twunt and their 2 best artists, imo, have left now. I wouldn't recommend there.

Chainbreaker (anyone else doing the SE ride to Roebuck tonight)

Dont count on me, i may have to pull out of tonight. Got shedloads at work and the high heel wearer at home needs me to do some stuff be flying out inthe morrow.

If I can make it I will, but not looking likely! Will PM you in case you miss this.

cool, ta

Ta lileth, not sure about he diamonds - girls best friend - but skulls are me!

I noticed a post many pages ago mentioning the owner of "Prick" in shoreditch. He did my backpiece. Great work I love it, but he named the shop after himself i reckon! adn I dont want to give him any more of my money.

hence trying to find another, seen in2u mentioned a number of times and Frith street. I also randomly saw a place on mare street Hackney, run by a latino and his son I think. anybod know the place? the work?

and whats this fixation with sailor steve? he a legend for his work? or people just like his lifestyle! lol

Havent yet heard of anyone here being an artist, just tons of the guys can recommend you to good one.

Im in love with diamonds and skulls. Already got two diamonds, but getting a sleeve based on that, roses, dotwork and some blackwork.

Cool thread, anyone in here an artist?

I'm looking to get another tattoo - Mayan Calendar. Not sure where exactly though. Got a large Mayan vision serpent on my back so no space. was thinking maybe front of my body or my side.

what are people's views on skulls? i love em personally and want a couple dotted around my body. trying to develop a new image though, to set it apart from the bulk standard.

Are you for real? is this a joke?

Which part? or all of it? yep serious..

Sumo - Fakenger seems to be the term used here so yep. same thing. I was told by a chick from Dr Bike who checked my bike out before a ride from Southwark to Hertfodrshire - never heard it before that!

Long story short:

Her in bar my mate's mate worked in 15yrs ago
He a good looking bastard
She with mates, pissed and fruity
Pills, cocaine and a few hours later
Her getting bummed all night

Pistanator you're the fukin best whoever you are, pissing myself here

OZ I hear you, and agree. But from my perspecive I dont get much riding in - kid and high maintenance high heels wearer! and am trying to get into the scene a bit so I can learn about my own bike and frames etc - trawling thru forums is mind numbing compared to a ride and off the cuff chat.

I got a lot to learn and trying to find the best way to learn. But I'll take it as it comes..

off to The Emirates where we lapped the Palace of Evil for a while and then home.

ooooh its the home of English football matey boy.

I think I need some of this cycle training, seems a sensible thing to do so I know what I'm doing wrong - just before I do it on purpose :-)!

Just ride dude. Make your own.

True true.. bit like Billy no mates though!

And getting befiended by tourists on Boris's Barmy Blue Barclays bikes aint cool! apart from the tasty continental muff - far too infrquent though. I normally get Ivan or Olga!

Must say I like to see more bikes on the road, even those bulky blus cnts!

Thanks for fixing the link hippy, much appreciated. Please let Mr know what the prob waa broken.

Hey chainbreaker, hope to see you on the streets. Just don't shout "fakenger" at me, cause I might fall off or crash!

Anybody got any tips on procuring cheap bits? Wheels, peddle etc. I hear all these stories of peeps finding mint pieces in bins and skips. All I find are syringes and used condoms!

Was just searching for images and came across this

I assume non of you wrote it!

You lot are nuts., this thread is cracking me up.

at the risk of sounding like a hispter, fakier etc ,where is good in south/south east then?

I'm looking to get some rides in

yup a pair plires and a vx cutters 4 secconds flat

Shit! mine is not that type but similar form Evans!
Ebay here I come.

I often have to remind myself that not everyone in London are cunts. However, there seems to be a higher incidence of cunts amongst those who get given a uniform as part of their job package.

Go to your LBS - they'll have a load of light brackets from ex-display models etc. and if any good will probably give you a replacement gratis (if they have one).

And rise above it. They've got a shit job. You've got a nice bike and (what sounds like) a good future career.

What is a "LBS"?

apologies I'm a noob! thats noob not nob. I've seen how people's posts get destroyed in these forums, lol

"If you have gears you will be shunned then beaten while being shouted at to "do a skid".
Whats a Fakier? Who's the Fakiest?"

ahhhh I feel at home now breathe's out and pops belt buckle. I dont know how people can jump on that geared shit, seriously cant ever be as sexy as a fixed/snigle! but each to their own I suppose.

Fakier was the term I was told cause I have a thin frame as opposed to a Charge type. But once I get some cash and a bad attitude I'm gonna be on the fix.

oops i missed this "say hello" bit1

The names Mr G - work moniker thats stuck - I'm looking to join rides but mostly to learn how to fix my almost bulk standard Maurice Mongoose 700! I like it as it is but wanna find nice black 5 spokes for the front wheel and maybe a paint job. I need some foot retention pedals first though methinks!

This is my prowler as is.. that French blokes above is really nice, it seems I need to change frames to ge a sexy bike.

Mr G

wow, you lot aren't easy! the guy asks a question and gets filled with lead!

*I am in no way connected or remotely Spanish or related to Sting or the other guy who got shot down!

phew!

Up for the South East ride, but is it for fixies or gearers?
I'm a "Fakier" I think is the term and looking to meet up with fixers and the like to learn some stuff.

Flying out the country the next morning so cant do the drinks or the mrs will lock me out and go without me!

South Easts (Tues17th Aug):

Blimey, I have a lot to learn! Some of the talk in these forums is scientific. I won't even go into the colour schemes and frames.
