    Withdrawn Antonin Magne 1951 Duralumin Frame

    Can't believe this ain't been snapped up! There's a broken to sh#t and cracked one here for 500 with not even the bolts to hold it together 🤑😂 Times must be hard...

    Lidl Whisky

    Having lived abroad for ten years, and benefited from cheap malt whisky I'm intrigued by the 'blended malts' available from Lidl. Got the lot, from 14yr old to 30yr old. Anyone rated them. All the reviews online are from German (In German) reviewers who may or may not have a relationship with...

    Dates!?

    Where can you buy a good date in this ole country? High in fibre, 65% carbs, great for long rides, but the ones I buy are skinny looking dried out rubbish.... From Aldi!

    Totally agree. If they had stuck with Compass at least they would have a bit of dignity left. As is they just look like freeloading 'bought your brand cheap ' schiesters!

    What is your Holy Grail among Japanese frame builders or marques?

    I'm very impressed by Japan made for frames, I'd love an njs track bike, but I'll settle for a nice Panasonic road frame. They do make exceedingly good hifi!

    Passed on the Team Pro, not the original forks and there was a dent in the top tube not mentioned in the ad. Search continues 😎

    For Sale Gios Compact Pro

    Super clean example. Toyed with buying one last year but the chrome and the paint were separating in several places. 53cm just too small for me. How's!

    Withdrawn Antonin Magne 1951 Duralumin Frame

    With the forks and parts, that's a good deal! I saw a Dural Magne online with a cracked chainstay, bare frame with nowt on it and they were looking 500 euro for it... Can't buy anymore bikes! 😂🤑

    What is your Holy Grail among Japanese frame builders or marques?

    Bridgestone made pretty decent frames, I had a Tange tubed road frame which was a bit solid, but dependable

    I like your Bagman retrofit, it looks very solid. I remember touring with a chrome Terry's support, which was forever rubbing on the back wheel!

    I've read some stuff on the French vintage website which is none too complimentary about Jan Heine and his 'replica'. Even in interviews he rarely mentions or gives any acknowledgement to Rene Herse, without whom his business would be sod all. Gravel bikes have probably slaughtered his market...

    RH (modern) are just a contemporary money grab, I've seen the bikes and the videos and tbh they really don't add up. Like I said upthread, compared to a pukka vintage Herse it's no comparison. As for the tyres, what a load of old cobblers. 'I gained 1.5mph using these amazing tires', pull the...

    The only thing to be careful of is the first time you take it off and try riding the bike, it will feel very weird!
