...we all seem to be straying from the whole Retro scene via fatbikes etc at the moment...

The answer is to find or create a Retro fatbike...

My Clunker has 2.5 tyres and yhe steel is so soft I could probably bend it a bit to fit bigger ones.

I said we were straying from retrobikes, I didn't say its an affront to use anything else. This however is retrobike and thus the whole point is retrobikes, thats all I'm saying.

Correct again, its getting like Single Track :?
'V' am no likeing this agreeing wiy you its no natural :shock:

Put the guards on the ground and run over them several times, that might do the trick :?

heads up edinburgh folk..... sad as a bike shop has gone out of business - I don't recognise it. But we all like a bargain I guess.

That's MacDonald's that's gone bust. Seems like it was a month or so ago. :shock:

 

[The Ken]

yes just spotted the sign, what a shame, bought a fair bit from them in the early 90's

the pics go out of sync with the lot numbers at 237, so check the lot description if you bid, I'm aiming for some pedals and the hope shelf

 

[kaiser]

Would we have a mule if we bid and won. Couple of odds and sods look interesting but I'm not going through to Edinburgh the next day to get it.

It was the sign that got me Googling. Been in there a few times, can't recall buying anything. :facepalm:

Noticed the descriptions of lots and their pics were out of sync, care required afore bidding.
Most of the out of sync ones are obvious and have the lot number in the pic.
