    14" Frames

    Got loads of 26" retro parts hanging about and figured I'd build something up for my daughter. I know the Hahanna was available in 14", and lots of the GT range was available in 14.5" Who else made tiny frames? Not much is coming up on eBay!

    Bontrager Race Lite Rear Hub

    Trying to replace the bearings. Removed freehub, non drive side axle part, circlip. Now left with a shiny axle sticking out of the hub, bearing each side. It is going to need some force to remove. Does it remove to the drive side or non drive side?

    Any problem running a 10 speed rear derailleur on an Ultegra 6500 9 speed setup? Jockey wheels seem to be different.

    England car flags

    Have all the Scandinavian countries got rules regarding flag useage? Lots seem to have flag poles. Looking back at pics from 1966, Wembley was full of union flags rather than St George, funny how it has changed so much.

    Net book find at the tip

    I'd eBay as is. Unless Mrs Cheese wants a netbook.

    Raleigh Koro

    Anyone know what this is? Seems to be a carbon road bike. Not sold in the UK... Was after a spec. All the websites I found were in French.

    Which pump?

    I bought one of these from Ribble. I sent it back and they gave me a refund. I currently have a Planet x version. CO2 part works fine, but it takes forever if you use the pump part. Small and light though. If I'm out for a longer leisurely ride I'll take a larger pump, very similart to the...

    Has Gordon Brown had botox?

    fluffy kittens

    Very dodgy. You should tell the police that a vehicle without road tax was driving down your road and that they were looking in peoples gardens and stuff. OK, it won't get anywhere...

    The 2010 election thread

    Similar problem here. Basically my vote is worthless - there is a 13,000 Conservative majority, so I can neither vote out Brown, nor vote anyone else in other than the Bullingdon club.

    Mercury

    Don't worry guys, it's not like I found it puddling on the floor and licked it up or something. Still in the original supplier containers. Seems like the council may be my best bet. Seems so wasteful though, can I not make a hat?

    Mercury

    Was clearing out the father in law's shed and found 100ml or so of mercury. Now that the novelty has worn off, what on earth should I do with it?

    *Shameless plug* Beastway 2010

    I might ride one or two as a novice. Not a big fan of HH mtb circuit though. Give us a wave - I'll be riding one of my 30lb+ steeds.

    ECU remapping on a turbo diesel - pro's and con's?

    Should be a fairly simple sum to calculate if it is only mpg you are interested in. How much does it cost to do? What mpg increase will you get? (If any!) How long is the payback on 30 mile commute? I doubt it will ever pay.

    'nuther ebay transaction / payment question...

    I've had it where PayPal hold the money until you leave positive feedback, or 15 days. The guy asked me to do several things, including cancelling, leaving feedback before the item arrived etc. I just raised a dispute. Then only communicated through the dispute console. Then I got emails...

    F1

    That was so dull! IMO a big step back without the refuelling. Whoever is in the lead just covers the 2nd place pit stop.

    I don't know much about this project. Will the guided bus have a driver?
