I just like to be able to sit down and pedal...and I like to be able to stop...and I like my shorts to stay up.

Maybe I'm not cut out for new school. lol

Joe, it's your slight framed-build that gives it away that you're not really a n/s rider buddy - how the bloody hell are you mate

Shall we take the pish out of each other on here or save it to MK this year bud - it's been a long time.

Oh, and your advice to Rich (Deano) is spot-on by the way, we were having a bit of a chat about it on tuesday night at Leicester and he's getting a bit too much air for his Redline o/s frameset now, so it's time for him to move to mid or new school for sure

Spen

ps - is Kendo dead? Did he survive his 40th?

If he wants a new cheap but strong as fook frame then he could do worst than one of these

trickydeno · « **Reply #35 on:** July 20, 2011, 09:59 PM »

here it is all fresh from a rattle can spray job.

mutiny sinister frame
macneil id forks
s & m bars & stem
fbm post/clamp federal seat
profile race cranks-shadow 25 chainring & s & m pedals
shadow conspiracy rear rim with proper k7 female cassette hub
oddy hazardlite front rim with oddy vandero hub
primo dirt monsters
fly cnc brake with oddy lever

the frame & forks are 2006.but the wheels & other bits are 2010.

not bad i thought for Â£280

Jaymz · « **Reply #36 on:** July 20, 2011, 10:16 PM »

Looks moody. I like thr green highlights well down, and 280 id a cracking price

john4130 · « **Reply #37 on:** July 21, 2011, 07:23 AM »

Oh, of course!

Or from damage when it falls over at the Boardroom 'cause we're all stood around gassing like old women
