trackstanding at lights near my house this morning. goes green, i move forward, white van behind me rolls up alongside, puts his window down and says "you look really good on that bike" and gives me what i assume he thinks is a cheeky wink. gross. go away.

ten points for jwesty! yes, sorry to say @edscoble i've tried 14 saddles and the SMP was The One but it's hideous. however - i'm over it now and soon as i sell the saddle i have now, i'm getting the SMP. hooray! my search is officially over after about 3 years.

so:

i'm selling my very new and virtually unused Specialized Power Pro - lovely and highly-regarded saddle but not right for me i'm afraid. this is one of Specialized's newest saddles and is pretty much unisex. i've heard nothing but good reviews of it.

it looks like this:

and comes with all the original packaging. RRP is £150, i'm selling for £130. can happily post for an extra couple of quid.

anyone receive anything exciting for xmas they would recommend?

2012, the earlier version

DASd you at cambridge circus that day but i was stuck in traffic with 680mm+ bars and couldn't actually say hello, ha

i would like to read Moebius's "Arzach" comics. how do i do this with the aid of the internet?

"optional" chest bump

how many versions of the 7 are there?

help please - i dropped my google nexus 7 tablet and the screen has a small crack on the bottom left corner. the bottom half of the screen is unresponsive but apart from that the tablet seems functional/fine. what should i do? where will (cheapishly) replace the screen in london?

yeah - readjusting the brake shoes isn't much hassle though, i don't mind doing it, and i'm not planning on running massive tyres on it at any point anyway >^.^< should be fine!

ha, not a stupid question. i had a basic idea of which ratios i could use that fulfilled the folloing criteria:

• ~50GI singlespeed and ~60GI fixed
  
• ergo max 4 teeth between fixed and ss cogs for flipflop (luckily pomp dropouts are fairly long)
  
• odd t fixed cog for max skid patches (arguably unnecessary but old habits etc)
  i had a 44t on there to start with but you'd have to run a 19t cog and a 23t freewheel which is basically a dishplate. it's massive. do not want.
  
  

laner argued fairly convincingly for marginally better power transfer with a larger chainring when i joked about the marginal gains of running a smaller chainset and cog, but basically the biggest factor was that i just wanted a smaller one - i preferred the aesthetic. i don't have many standards when it comes to bikes but when i want something i'll do it.

@amey it was literally all i had in the house! i'm not abashed, they do the job

@andyp i'll keep it in mind (YAL and i could be pompino princesses together)! still ultra bruised from incredibly cross and then offroading all sunday

at the behest of @youramericanlover even though i can't take a good picture to save my life:

built up a fun beater pompino for (fixed) commuting and sscx, couldn't find any black chainsets lower than a 42 lying around so at the moment it's silver but soon i'll replace with black and put some crabon forks on. currently testing some TVR paint for cole coatings - the pictures don't do it justice at all, it's a subtle intergalactic delight irl:

made some veeg gingerbread. see y'all in a bit

in but not sure what time, probably 6:30ish. my heart does a little flutter when i think about nacho pizza.

@Botherington on camberwell church street again haaaaay (spotted you from daily goods)
