    Getting rid of a mouse

    Don't they say to count yourself lucky if you have a mouse in the house as it generally means you don't have rats!! We've had the occasional grey squirrel in our roof - now they are unwelcome houseguests!

    Brooks Competition Saddle

    The dubbin I've put on seems to have worked well so far - I'll not slather on any more! I'm not going to be riding it for a bit so I'll leave it to do it's thing and then have a look again when it's time to try it out. Thanks for all the hints! Had another look for this particular saddle and...

    Thanks for the tips - got to build the bike first but I'll leave the rivets in the meantime!

    Would you ride 150mm cranks?

    I think you be amazed how quickly you can get used to them - I've 33' inside leg and occasionally ride 165 cranks and don't mind at all.

    Help me choose a retro full suspension bike…………..

    I'd be leaning towards the 657 - it looks tidy, it has Girvins and I'm guessing it's about £50? The stanchions on those x-verts look like they could need a closer inspection?

    Brooks Competition Saddle

    I was given this Brooks Competition saddle today which appears sparingly used but had been left in a workshop for over 20 years. I've cleaned the grub and dust from it and applied some dubbin to restore condition (leather looks remarkably good) but should I do anything with the rivets/nose to...

    Folders! Foldable bicycles, minivelos and demontables

    I test rode one about 15 years ago, liked it, ordered one and then stupidly got seduced by a Dahon Speed Pro TT - the worst engineered / built / potentially dangerous bike I've ever owned (I got in touch with David Hon to tell him too!). Sent the Dahon back but then couldn't order a Brompton as...

    Folders! Foldable bicycles, minivelos and demontables

    Excluding the lack of front brake and questionable bar/lock I like it!

    Hog Tie them Tresspassing E bikers : )

    His wife has just given an interview and stated that after hearing a commotion and finding the trespassers already trussed up by her husband she suggested he should 'just chuck 'em in the pig sty and let them deal with 'em'. Seemingly the farmers low regard for the local constabulary might have...

    Hog Tie them Tresspassing E bikers : )

    Another great use for bailer twine though. Wonder if the farmer actually got arrested for indecent exposure after his trousers dropped to the floor in the police station?
