    Sold Syncros revolution crank + rings & crank o matic bolts

    For the good of the entire forum, someone just needs to buy these asap, so we can all move on.. but in the name of all that is sacred, pls conduct price negotiations discretely, via pm. That said, part of me is secretly hoping some noob posts a “Would you take £100 cash, mate?” offer..

    Science Museum

    Yep, the Chopper is there too. And at least two Daleks. There is also a collection of bikes on the entry lobby roof.. I barely registered them this time round, given my prevailing stress levels, but if I recall correctly, they have a Boardman-era carbon Lotus mountain bike, which is pretty...

    Science Museum

    Well, it was a good day out for my 8 yr old.. and if I was alone and had a couple of hours there, I bet I could have a good time too. Tons of interesting stuff… but with a child, you get dragged past all the stuff you want to see (say the phenomenal watch exhibition - with originals from...

    Science Museum

    Yep.. it’s in a section entitled (something like) “the making of modern life”.. which is a huge room with stuff like looms, scissors and Anglepoises etc at one end, through various forms of ever advancing technology, cars, aircraft etc.. until the far end of the room, when the zenith of human...

    What spares to stock for future proofing my retrobike?

    Just enough to fill a garage. Any more than that would be excessive. A double garage.

    For Sale Fat Chance Yo Eddy at ebay.de

    I think the point here, Uhuru, is not that m737 isn’t high quality - I’m sure we all agree it is.. but rather a Yo (and indeed Yeti and Klein) tended to be used as a clothes horse for high end US CNC kit. Back in the ‘90s and indeed today around these parts.. The commentary around the...

    For Sale Fat Chance Yo Eddy at ebay.de

    I mean, I beg to differ about when Yo Eddys became “famous”. They were one of the most desirable frames of the early to mid-90s, in the early to mid-90s. Stacks of period magazine coverage too. No matter. Spec is fairly rudimentary for this quality of frameset. Key value driver for me would be...

    TNT HDS Cranks

    Could be any of the above. If I had to guess, a combination of imperfections in the alloy, the cnc’ing process (which cuts rather than forges the component into the desired shape) and probably a heavy or aggressive rider and the inevitable passage of time. Would strongly caution against ever...
