Really ? People ride around all day on plastic wheels with nylon content  so what's so stupid ? This it tech & restore right ? A place to ask questions & gain knowledge ? No wonder the sites been so quiet recently if this is the kind of reply people asking perfectly valid questions receive .... :Aresehole:

Ok I'd had a couple of beers last night when I read this so ill apologise & Defer the  :Aresehole: quote, however a few of us were debating in a thread started by terry as to why the site seems so quiet be it the time of year, post red crash meltdown etcetc & it was felt that for anyone new ( & I count myself as a newbie ) rad can be quite an intimidating place. Many people wouldn't have dared to have asked the question above for fear of a reply like yours. Regardless of how it was meant the written word can easily be Mis understood & with a lot of members there's a certain arrogance that comes across in their replies in some threads.

Rad should be a positive place with positive comments on builds & less of the ( ask a stupid question expect a stupid answer attitude) to go along with the backhanded build compliments so many like to give out on build threads. Personally I couldn't give a toss if I get one of these after all I build for me & no one else but like to show my work to the community. but from speaking to other members this kind of thing can really take the enjoyment out of what at the end of the day should be an enjoyable hobby.  :daumenhoch:

I am an asshole so don't worry bout the insult  ;)

My advice on the bike would be to build it proper with everything nice n tight if it's gonna be a rider.... even if it's just to the pub and back  :daumenhoch:

Being spat over the bars because the chains come off isn't funny

Should have said that in the first place  :daumenhoch:

Rubber washers will deform before you can get them anywhere near tight enough, A red fibre washer may work underneath a regular steel one but on its own it will just chew up  :daumenhoch:
