nee bother

got a hammer?

not just any hammer, it has to be 'your hammer' you know, the one you named

(mine is called Mel)

A mans hammer is an artful tool, and shall be respected.

You forget all this stuff after many years...I couldnt remember that pedals have different threads,so i was snapping spanners left,right and centre  ;D
Dont even try fiddling with a new school bike tho...its madness,all the nice simple old school ways have been altered just enough so that you feel like a right tit and have to go to a bike shop or ask really silly basic questions on here.
I used to build bmx's from scratch when i was 11;i get a new school ride and i could'nt sort out a wobbly headset(this lot did though :smitten:).
Get stuck in and ask questions here.Old school is much simpler.Big hammers are important and so is lots of patience...and if you can change pedals into sheep...remember that they have different threads :idiot2:
