Everything has gone.... it's like I never ever joined or posted or PMed anyone.
I assume the Server crashed and the Backup pre dates me... SHEESH.

Bugger! :'(

You may have missed this as well after last night mate

Check your sizes first though, not 100%. Rini enterprises also do one under the misc section i think. Only $1

would the seat shim that comes with the gorgeous elina UL do the job?
got one of those somewhere doing nothing as it fitted my frame without it
swap you for a bag of orange chips ;D

I hope so, Griff, as I have just bought the Elina Seat, Post and Shim off Fleabay for £25 NOS.
No orange chips in my neck of the woods, although the missus found "McCains Beer Battered Oven Chips" in the Co-Op last night and they are a rather good approximation, although not quite flo-glo enough!
:D

McCain? I thought you were a Walsall chip-eater - I'm afraid that simply won't do...... ;D
Looks like you'll be sorted soon anyway, btw is your Elina a snakepost?

I was a Walsall Chip Eater (wtf is one of those?!?) 32 years ago, mate. Not really been there since I was old enough to get out!
And yes, mate, Snakepost all the way!

By the way, I know someone answered this last night before the Forums crashed and zapped everything, but what size Pedal Axles do I need for a OPC, please?
Thanks,
Clean.
(A steady stream of shiny bits is now heading to a small village in the Pennines! :D)

Cheers, mate, but I am after some DX Style Platforms; found some Haro DX Stylers for £12 NOS so probably go with those.

Cheers, Andy..... 25 crisp crinklies winging their way to you via PayPal as I promised last night! :uglystupid2:
Now for another Noob question..... when I was a kid we ran a fatter front tyre than rear in the early years and then most people swithced to identical size front and rear. Am I right in thinking we were running 20" x 1.75" at this point? Trying to recreate my youth to the tinyest detail!
:D
And, for the record, everyone was right..... the spending does get kind of addictive and runaway quickly. :LolLolLolLol:
-
The 1.75 is the standard size tyre. :daumenhoch:

And so my so-fooking-naive-it's-almost-cute-but-actuately-it's-not questions continue....
Need a BB Set for a 24tpi OPC (love all them Three Letter Acronyms (TLAs)) for my proj....
Worth a look:

I know they aren't "Era Correct" but I want something that will keep the wet from my balls, so to speak.....
All better ideas welcome....
Thanks!
:D

If you grese your balls properly then getting water on them wont be an issue you can get sealed Bottom brackets that are era correct but they are going to cost a fair amount :daumenhoch:
It is up to you and your timescale and budget to decide.
