Bicyclettes

[seenmy]

nope the ones below them, apparently from japan by h+son I havent seen them on anywhere before or noticed them mentioned so im interested to know if anyone has had experience good or bad,as i quite like them asetheticaly

[offmybiscuits]

take it to the shop

[mlproject]

if you want to learn, buy the cog and the tools. if you don't care, take it to a shop.

the FSA cranks are pretty nice and stiff, but I've had a few friends that ride them on the street and they start to develop some play at the bb spindle

[offmybiscuits]

yeah thats the thing

im never gonna use my track pro on the drome

and i dunno if these are solid for the street

There's no such thing as a good, ISIS bottom bracket.

To use the huge spindle ISIS uses, you need to have teeny tiny bearings inside, and those bearings wear out very quickly.

Any other type of bottom bracket uses much larger bearings.

If you like the look of 'em, buy 'em, they do look lovely with them Schwalbe tubs. If you're buying rims for a reason other than looks then I'd walk on by, particularly at £44-47 each. The Halo track wheels they've got further down had a brilliant magazine review, and they're £165 a pair all in.

Here's bit of 80s exotica: http://london.craigslist.co.uk/bik/781096889.html

yeah i only have a rear to build up if they ride as well as deep vs i will go for one i expect it is partly asethetics but i still want it to be a decent ride.

stopped by yojimbo's this past friday to talk to marcus, who was very attentive, as could be seen in the awkward moments of silence that followed each of my questions, while he was putting together thoughtful responses to them.

had my fuji -- in line with all of my specifications -- ready to ride by saturday, in the early afternoon. i can only echo what mlproject and Wolves had to say about this shop and its owner.

[mlproject]

marcus is indeed the man.

you freal?...

[Wolves]

It's fucking called google.

About Marcus, I just asked him a lot of stupid questions because I was there a long time ago when I was just learning and he didn't even make fun of me haha. Ditto on the awkward silence after every question. I was like... maybe he's making fun of me in his head after all my questions. He's ace.

[m1sterko]

hmm.. anyone hear some news on kilo pro complete?

[Wolves]

I was also wondering that too. I'm a little excited for that.

Does anyone actually have a completely silent set up? The stock shit on my fuji track

is making a fuckload of noise and I was just wondering if it's just me.

Yeah, for the most part.

If you're loud, you're chain's probably tight as your jeans with a boner inside.

Thick lube with a nice, clean chain helps as well. Some of the nicer track chains are pretty loud, surprisingly as well... SRAM's have always been the most silent in my experience.

ahh way to throw up the phil wood. that was like a digital smack in the face. my components are so shitty.

[mlproject]

anyone had any experience of having a bike shipped from us to uk?the guy im buying from seems to be telling me its not possible under 600us and only way is 30 day by ocean?

[dino might]

^ i dont have any experience but that seems like it could be a little off.. sounds sketch to me, but again, no experience so take it with a grain of salt i guess.

i've shipped large boxes full of shit. clothes, dishware, cutlery etc, over 30x30x30 inches from toronto ontario to macedonia (skopje) for 100$

it was by freight, ocean, which is like 30 business days as you said. that'd probably be your cheapest method.

Anyone want to sell me some pursuit bars/bullhorns?

I'm most interested in Nitto RB-009's, but I could be intrigued by any as long as they have some drop to them.
