If I weighed 10kg less than I do now I would fit very nicely into my father's ikelys for a quick walk around the garden. If I had them now they would be wasted gathering dust due to pressure /contact around the end of third and fourth toe, no good walking especially down hill, and they're made forlots of walking.

Yes, level 2 painting and decorating, it was more rewarding than expected going back to school (emphasis on school). They are designed to get you up and running, so informative on rules and regulations, plus side you can do whatever else you want while on the course.. they say five years solid experience before you say it's your trade. [The entry bar for level two may be low/ will suite you more, the college will know).

Ah, I glued the heels yesterday afternoon and did some shaping this morning,, they'll eventually make it to a cobblers for a proper job..

Yeah, that's exactly it, I think they're all closed and it should be an achievable DIY job. I didn't know dainite did such a nice stick on soles.

It's on hold for prosecco now

Dam, did it read that bad.

I'm both uptight and underwhelmed about adding a stick-a-sole to my boots. I've walked ~500meters in them and given them a little rough-up with some p80 on a board, , I'm a little underwhelmed by video tips about the process seeming to be slap it on it'll be fine, when I know there's a taper on the toe and heal that I don't have sufficient clamps to close. Also juggling with wiping off with water vs. giving them some saddle soap action. Anyway sloes are dainite logger and I'm enjoying being uptight about it...

ruined

Cheers,
I will be moving some of these over to the website. It is nice feedback to kick it off.

OT: Paintings.

this has been the forum that has shaped [influenced and entertained] my life mostly over the past three years, so I understand fuckoff to bay but, I've thought some appreciation may be found.

all-be-it-late I'll be reshaping my employment and trying to work towards what I want to do.
hence
these are the best I have and to remove subjectivity they are priced a pound an inch.

the paintings are in bristol and it is a far stretch not to try before you buy but they may suit offices receptions (shops cafes restaurants) design studios houses but most of all walls with the centre line 150cm from the ground.

most are dating from 2010 onwards
fuller details history available
shipping may take up too three weeks as I will be sourcing the best (probably not wooden) packaging and courier.

if they sell I wont be posting more but would put the moneys to a studio rent and keep buyers updated via blog:
bluehuwstudioshot wordpress
also some further images available there

Yes bump up demand. It would be nice if they did custom tube length like 59 x 57 or whatever to fit but that could be asking too much it's their business model not the be all and end all

I picked up my first brogues today a basic loake Fearnley £115
jones the bootmaker offered to wizz them through there spraying machine for waterproofing or such like I declined for now (not really knowing the benefit) they are already comfy as fuck.
I do feel a chav chic irony having them and look forward to getting the bus
while already working out what to get next [year] ... and am liking these tricker's saddle shoes if they'll make them

Just me that really liked?, bump

Just donning the idiot hat here for a while.
So I swapped the front wheel to another frame with the result of it's functioning better (with rockhard brake blocks) there.
And switched the calipers to 105 with anyold softish pads & that's now working better on this frame.
Within time I'll marry up the wheelsets to match again - just now even the memory of how they were functioning seems a nightmare.

This is on a downer from dangerous wheels! But on the up, the right side gear boss has been replaced, and gears cabled up to work lush.
If the handlebar setup is to be kept the reverse bar-end leavers will be a must and the ones I have are not fitting the ends - but that's minor - the big kick [literally from the feeling of being thrown off the dam thing] are the wheels so opening my eyes to other (even stupid without keeping) rims amid some swearing.

yeah, I've just the wheels to make a two toothed hen, not londonbased thou!

Nice chainset combination

fuck that's Air tubing and Zeus ends! I'm a bit blown away.
My one is at Argos like hospital for frames and has a long way to go but yours is just great.
I could try the bar idea but I've no reason to go aero with elbow tuckin - it could become a thing about having to try it.
It's a great find thanks for showing it is pure niceness like a blade. I'll speak to Argos about stem / steer tube modification.

I don't do timetrials myself, nor segments or racing but this does have a job to do which is get me up a few hills three times a week so getting it to workings gears is what I'm after, as my TT days are as far behind me as they are for the frame. I do have Moser bars with a stem issue, being that the SLX tubing only allows a minimum insert, and I don't have the right length.
There has been a very similar frame with a 650front on sale here before did you get yours direct?

cassette locknut was just a bit loose freehub fine - wheels are nice

Really needs a shop looking at on five counts from the easiest fitting the correct bb length and getting the gear cables done at the same time, alsoo bit worrying about the wheels alot of movement in the freehub as if the cassette locknut is very slack but it is tight and the front needs truing possibly 3-4 spokes replacing and a re-grease, on the gear cables the bigger problem is the right boss a crack not sure of the intervention needed it's very close to fitting.

I could take a bit off this or the leaver

Things have changed! I'm picking up a 105 group including Wheelset, so it's just a bb and well fitted stem I'll be looking for

I know what you mean about campag, I've been thinking parts of this would get me out of a tight spot, but also need to be much more flush with the money.
Just to help is the rear spaced to 126? and it is freehub body?

Pm'd re no 4

Some nice stuff arrived, I'm awaiting a cone and locknut to get the rear hub running smooth, but it's the freehub that excites the most it has one get out of trouble cog of 21t giving 54" .
I think I'll set up the bars tomorrow with a ludicrous 130mm stem.
The bar-end leavers donot fit but I imagine to use the triomphe mounted lower on the bars with the cable having a small loop over to the routeing hole

It is still very 'I hope it works' and I would like to upgrade the calipers but for now it's pretty much on hold and I'm hiding from the finishing cost.
-will post the bars setup with fixedwheel-
