By a small dumbell set and do wrist curls, bicep curls. You could also tape your fingers and forearms like climbers do.

Test rode one of those saddles, look great, feel um....rock hard.
Did not suit my backside, could I sacrifice that for fashion?

Had some of these rims brand new sat in garage for ages, was going to build them up and never got rould to it. They were brand new and ancient, someone literally begged to buy them off me, superb rims and still highly thought of in the track cycling world anyway. Sold them, lots of money in my pocket and a happy cyclist! They held their value - that good.

2316, lets hope they listen and do something about this.

Thanks Teddy, Cliff forgot to mention that bit to me.....

Has anyone got throught o ROyce in last few weeks?

Cliff from Royce will not guarantee radial lacing, made that very clear!

EDIT; There was a quote from page one I was supposed to put here sorry - mucked that up!

they are rare, but not impossible to find Im sure, google is your friend !

The right side of the frame is meant to be a left thread, that's normal. I'm sure Omas B/B's came with adjustable cups on both sides at one time.

something sounds plain wrong about this, Your Mercian should(will?) have English threads, did you check this out before fitting the unit ?

I bet my colleague that Garmin will win the TTT, he says Astana.

Who is on my side?!?!?!

You weigh not much! Go as low spoke count as you want, 32h sounds fine, you could go lower if they were available but they aren't.

You can get Soma tape here

23t cogs here

Just spoken to Steve at RoadAce who builds with Royce hubs, he says to mail him with your details and he will get you a price.

Guys, strongly advise against a spoke threader, the threads are not great when they come out of that thing, and with the style of riding you do you will pop them.

Save your pennies and buy the right length spokes.

Thats my advise.

oops! Ok, so, how do I make a donation?

3 Weeks Ago - Velocio

The way it works:
1) Make a donation
2) Make sure you participate elsewhere on the forum
3) Don't make tons and tons of threads...
4) Make your thread in the Classifieds forum

Sorry! Have done all but part 4, an honest mistake.

You could have just pm'd me???

Thank you to everyone else for looking!

My Grandmother had one when she was young, go for it, well made and tres' retro.

They look sweet!

Limited edition so get in quick is my advice.

Large range of glitter colours available, the perfect party saddle.....

Got Soma ones if interested :)

Hows about Soma?

Not sure how they would react to suede shoes though....

Hope you're ok!

If you want to save the planet, rebuild onto your existing hub.

However, if you think the front hub spindle is bent, it is probably new wheel time (to be cost effective).
Specialized won't supply you with a new wheel, treat yourself to a new hand built wheel if you can. Plenty of good wheel builders around, feel free to pm me if you are stuck!

Hope that helps! (Although maybe won't help your wallet - sorry!)

Anyone here used the Kinlin XR-200? Or IRD Niobium Road?

We use Mavic open pros, open sports and IRD Cadence and Cadence Aero rims.

Mavic rims, nice and affordable, great reputation and reliable.

The IRD rims you pay a bit more for, however, they are stiffer and lighter. I have Cadence on my road bike and for climbing in Mallorca, excellent, light, nippy, a joy to ride.

We use RoadAce Components to build our wheels, Steve is the guy who is the builder.

There are 2 'sizes' of teeth for singlespeed, your chain, sprocket and chainring need to match - advisably. So, you have 3 3/2, and 1/8". This could be reason one.

Did you fit a new chain when you fitted a new cog? If no, your chain could be worn and therefore not sitting on the teeth properly.

Do you have the correct chain tension? If too loose your chain will slip over the teeth on the cog.

Hope this helps!
