...stop the car, jump out and run after the 100yr old (ish) man riding a totally stock 1998/9 Klein Pulse Pro in the opposite direction in slow motion style in order to offer to buy it off him? "I'll give you £100 for it and even drop you off at Halfords - you can get one of those full...

Cheers guys - awesomely fast response! I knew what it referred to, just not what it stood for...!

It's bugging me. Never On Sale?

Excellent buyer - paypalled immediately after I confirmed the item was his. Cheers :wink:

hmmmm.... A ladies specific bikeshop must be a thought in the back of someones mind!

Totally see where you're coming from but I would expect evens and the like to be fielding at least one female member of staff if possible. - I imagine that the female market is growing at quite a rate and a "friendly face" inside the shop would probably be a large factor in the decision making...

Has anyone ever actually seen one? I know one who has recently branched out into selling (high end) bikes from the outdoor shop that she runs. She chooses the range, does the servicing (cyteched up), cycles a lot and knows pretty much everything about her brand, most of the competitors and...

I'd seriously consider either bricking that window up or fitting bars to it. Most reflective films don't work well in the dark if there is a lightsource shining from the inside - anyone walking by would be able to see right in. Does look ace though!

T'is a local forum for local riders...

Afraid my computer is feckin about at the minute so not able to upload any pictures. If you google it you'll see what it looks like and mine is brand new - if you need someone to vouch for me not ripping you off you could prob ask orange71...

If them cantis turn out to be super rare prototype one of a kind things I'm gonna be gutted they went into my mysterious £30 box of stuff...

Anyone want one? Brand spanking, never been sat on, new. £7 to cover postage and it's yours.

I agree with the idea that riding a fixed off road is probably going to end in tears at some point but if that's what floats your boat then good luck! Basically I want low maintainence and to put off any casual borrowing of my new bike, not to make any kind of "look at me I'm sooooo...

No idea what you mean mate... :wink:

Oh and I forgot to mention the other reason for going fixed is as an extra anti-borrowing device! No gears and no obvious brakes means if someone needs a bike for a shop run they prob wont choose mine... :wink:

To be fair it's not going off road, it's going from my room, to work (1km), the shop (250m) or the gym (200m) so I doubt I'll be grinding the pedals on either of those little jollies! However my next kona rebuild will be going off road as a lightweight rigid fireroad eating machine!

So I got my Kona to work and reassembled it but I had problems fitting the rear brake - so I've just taken it off. Now it looks weird with just the front lever and I'm thinking of taking it off entirely and going fixed. Should I do it? Plus - how fast and direct do p2 forks steer?! I'd...

You have PM as well...

Box of stuff, some very new some quite old. Can't be bothered listing it or taking photos of it all so if anyone feels lucky or in need of some mystery in their retrobike lives it's up for grabs! Definately worth the £30... paypal accepted. swaps considered - especially locks...

Excuse the weird way of doing this, I'm having IT/mobile dramas! The below bike is now for sale for the bargain price of £170 including insured couriering (new word for me!). I don't want to sell it but neither do I want it rotting outside work propped up against the wall...
