You can always do what we used to do back in the day, zip-tie a seat to a seatless frame.

The posts are easy, you can just screw some out of an old set of forks, just go to your LBS and see what forks they're throwing out?

Hey, have a set on my bmx. they're not bad, but I've had better, like easterns...

Alternatively you can source yourself a V-brake plate and attach it, might work all depends on your frame and rim. Here's the link...

Damn f**king straight, it's ALL about the Old Bristolian, I love going to Uni in the south west.

Well, my uni course is joint honours chemistry and physics, so basically a 40 hour a week job, then I have part time work and seeing friends, I don't know but somehow it all fits in, like between lectures go to the library and do all the uni work, unfortunately the trials has taken a bit of a blow this year...

Well, feck me sideways and call me marley.

I REALLY hope you're taking the piss... Anyway, Tomm an example of something like this is that certain brain defects can cause very high levels of anger and aggression, but some people control it, some don't. The ones who control it don't go to jail, the ones who don't do. Differences in peoples genes *may* affect their mental tendencies, but ultimately it's whether you control yourself or not that matters...

Mate, wrong section of the forum...

Firstly you mean they're imperial, not metric. Secondly, the diameter is 3/8" according to profile's site but I can't find any info on the TPI.

I find they come out best if you make them in bulk. When I make them I just use about a tin of golden syrup, about 500-1000 grams of rice crispies, and as much chocolate as necessary, you can tell if the mix is right from the texture, if it's sticky, but no solidifying then it's ready to go in the baking tray. P.S. The oldest acitve threads in Chit Chat are, in order: The Random Small Questions (Sep 23, 2004), The Angry Thread (Feb 8 2005), The How Do You...., make rice crispy cakes (Feb 25 2005), The Post Pictures of Your Car (Nov 2 2005 0018 hours) and The Post a Pic of Your Missus (Nov 2 2005, 0140 hours). So this is the third oldest thread, and I can't believe I just checked all those.

Well, I must say that Aran builds excellent frames, despite the fact that mine refused to stop cracking in the same place. Aran fixed it twice, then gave me a full refund. Can't ask for better than that.

Hmm, it's weird, I know Glasgow isn't safe, the amount of fights is ridiculous, the knife culture is HUGE and the supply of guns is increasing too. BUT I still feel perfectly OK to walk home from a night out, even on my own. I think it's really what you're used to rather than how actually dangerous the place is...

When you say clean and work on, you mean you take it apart?

Go for a ride . If it's with a girl go see a film if it's wet, then invite her home to dry off afterwards. If it's dry then go to a park, get pissed or something. Hope this helps.

I'm torn really, because while Pete was one of the funniest things on the web back in the day, some things are better left in the past, y'know.

Irn Bru is the best, especially if it's flat. If that fails I normally have a wee nip of the dog that bit me.

4.06 tonnes, using no new renewable energy, when I own my own house I'll have it waaaay below 2.

I have two jobs, I study chemical physics here at bristol, but at night I work the doors, makes me a fair whack.

Well, my best tip is don't buy biscuits or anything snacky, if it's around you WILL eat it. My normal day is: breakfast=banana or other fruit, lunch=sandwich or cold pizza slice and tea=cous cous with fish, or some sort of meat type thing. I'm losing weight right now as far as I can tell, while getting f**k all exercise... Dave

I have this place called diamond kebabs near me, it does THE most amazing pizza. The 12" costs £5.25 and it's sooo good.

Bar 6 months on maggies, since I started riding almost 6 years ago I've used vee's. A well set up vee is amazing, bug make sure you spend a fair bit of time setting up the pads flat. My recommended trick to get a decent ser up is: wind out the barrel adjuster halfway, loosen off the pad bolts, pull the arms together by hand and tighten up the cable pinch bolt. Then wind out the barrel adjuster some more, check the pads are sitting square then wrench up the pad bolts. If you find the pads moving as you tighten up the bolts just pull the lever, the extra pressure should help. Dave

The lever is not in fact rivetted, it is held in by an allen key bolt...

For future reference if you swallow methanol or anything you fear may damage your liver all you have to do is drink several units of alcohol, the liver will ignore the poison and process the ethanol instead, the rest will just be passed in urine. Though you should check with a doctor in all cases because certain chemicals won't react this way...

Entered, not tallied up a bike yet though... EDIT just added one up, if I win I hope the guys have sold at least 397 pairs of grips...
