He's back. Hair cut maybe?

Or use a fine flap disc on an angle grinder. Would be a lot quicker. Would get rid of the deeper/harsher stuff quicker anyway.

Im not saying you HAVE to use Tesco's tubes

It should be fine. When I rode mod I never bothered with 19" tubes. I just used Tesco's own brand 20" tubes.

I maybe in for this. Just got to figure out how Im going to get into the centre with the bike. Train methinks. Also where are you meeting? King

I have a working bike now but I've only been in bristol for about 4 days. AND Im busy with Uni stuff on Sunday but if you cant find a guide, just find Castle Park and wonder around there a bit. You'll see all the famous spots like Lloyds Bank, and the harbor. Haven't had a chance to get out and ride myself but thats what I've seen from just walking around the centre etc. King

Happy Birthday man. Only just got internet set up at uni. Just in time for this message.

Im here, I have a bike but I have no bottom bracket. Damn.

That be the plan. Got to do something while I pretent to study.

Im moving to Bristol in a few weeks to start uni (UWE). Maybe a welcome ride is needed?

Whose the babe in the first lot of photos. Man he's sexy. Glad your back.

I live in Herne Bay. Dont ride much though anymore but I suppose I could crawl out of my hole for a change.

Ahhhh, you was implyling the the brake mounts werent flat causing the callipers to point up. I thought you meant if the holes were drilled imparallel (is that a word? ) causing them to toe in or out.

No, not really. The reason people cut down their steer tubes is so that they dont have to run stem stackers on top of the stem, which tends not to be very groin friendly. If you have found a decent stem height that leaves the steerer poking out, then cut the excess off.

Also am I missing the point but a file wont do anything? Its not going to make the brake mount holes parallel. Unless your talking about filing the insides of the hole in the mounts but then the bolt will be all loose and stuff in the whole. God Adam!

Yea ZHI CHRIS is a sound guy. Not likely to rip you off.

Ill keep an eye out for you.

Happy birthday mate, hope you treat the mini aswell!

Nice spec, but how about some pics

Fred has turned to the dark side and now rides XC (or atleast a different riding discipline).

The last time I went to Hong Kong (not China, I know) was quite a while ago but I seemed to recall alot of the signs etc had english on them aswell. Cant really help much more Im afraid. It might be an idea if you looked into a tour package or something. From some who speaks basic Cantonese, but has Cantonese speaking parents.

Used to but not so much now: Volvos and their daytime running lights.

Me und Pete are riding Whitstable tomorrw and will be meeting at Gorrel Tank at 12. Come join us people. King

If my back is better, Ill show up me thinks.

What I like to do is loosen the caliper off, where it bolts onto the mounts, then do the red knobs all the way up, tighten the caliper to mount bolts, then loosen the red knobs afew turns. That way I know the pads will be straight etc....
