I really want to come and play again, had a great time last time. I'm working saturdays sadly atm though, what time is newt on tuesday? Would be great to ride down after work. Are there any mitch sessions that are beginner-friendly as im based in holloway?

I'm looking for a white ladies saddle for a build for my gf. After fair condition but not looking for perfect, just no big tears (already got one o' them). Not looking for modern style really, it's going to have a basket etc.
Cheers

I am going to wake up in dalston do will come down if that's alright, i don't have a polo suitable bike with me I'm afraid though, will come even if there's no loaner to say hi

Haha perhaps
Ah thank you both very much but I have dibsed some of 'dress like foxes', if i don't hear from him though I will happy take up the offers. Mr B I do still very much want a BB lockring though if possible

Im looking for some bars for a bike for my gf, anything usable/ that i could scrub up would be great

dibs old brakes, will pm now

side pull probably, 'vintage' used loosely to mean not modern more than anything else. On a very low budget

Just looking for working parts that aren't nackered for a build for my gf
I'll come and pick up in London preferably
Thanks
Ben

the first couple of threads are stripped on the plastic cup, would still work fine though if the shell threads were fine.
Just rang them and was told to email pictures to the returns department, sounded like they just want to give me a new frame, irritating as ive already installed headset etc. Might be worth it though, i was just quoted £15-25 to have it chased.

bump, still riding about single speed

yeah i just utfs and quickly concluded i would not be buying either tool...
annoying though, was hoping for an easy build with new parts, im usually building with elderly, used to death bits.

Ah, are the tools worth buying? Expensive to have done?

both suggestions sound good... Theres a good 1.5/2mm sticking out
Thinking i'm going to phone On-One in the morn before attempting filing as i reckon if I file and it doesn't work they will blame my filing for the problem and wont help.

Ive posted already in bb qs but i need help asap as i need to return the tool to apolloxl who's kindly lent it to me.

Brand new pompino frame, the threads in the bb shell have sharpish lumps where the chainstays join. This is stripping the threads on the plastic shimano cup. Am I doing something wrong? Do I take a file to them? Or do I phone up One-One and ask them why they can't cut clean threads and ask for a new frame?
Thanks,
Ben

hey,
fitting a shimano bottom bracket into a brand new pompino frame, the threads in the bottom bracket shell are interrupted by lumps from the chainstay joint, causing the plastic cup to strip as it goes in. Tempted to get a file out but dont want to void any help from On-One.
Any advice from experienced bottom bracket fitters? Is it a case of taking the frame back or filing off the lumps and carrying on?
Thanks,
Ben

dibs pming now

Hi
My lockring threads stripped today so I'm after a rear wheel, ideally fixed/fixed and a v rim. Budget is quite limited so something used but working would be great.

^ this would have been perfect.
I'm based in London and will come and pick it up.
Cheers
Ben

If anyone has any lying about I would love them.
Even punctured tubes would still be good,
Cheers

Its a handsome beast, thanks for it!
