Does it involve a welder by any chance

Now if this had been a ride for experienced riders I would be there like a bear

Oom H it is a 'cartridge' but a problem is also there's nothing left to 'bite' on. I will take some close up pics tonight.

@jules - but there's nothing to bite on the BB ... it's not an external type. @Free - 'normal' so I guess not Italian .......

Achtung all and sundry you's mettalurgical ekspets and all Little-Ben has been busy on that track frame he 'scored' a little while ago but has now found that the BB is well and truly 'stook'. I assume it has been in there since time 'im-memorial'. In fact the spots where the BB tool would normally fit are all wrecked. I know there has been much discussion about stuck seatposts and that trying to soak it with something hoping to release the 'freds' would have little effect .......... we drank the cokes while contemplating the options! Any ideas y'all ?

No one

No problem Swiss! Great to have more tips/experience with tubeless, we can always learn from others.

Very schweet looking bike that sir! May you have many many safe, happy kilometers on it.

The cynic in me also says that it's just a way to sell more stuff, like compact cranks, triples for road, rotor cranks etc.

No one from UCT recognise our guy ?

Oi Yang, Mickey not Mighty!

He's from the University of Capetown (OK so he just had a UCT shirt on ) I'd rather one of them explain ...... I have no idea

Pretty strong rider but I assume the special outfit goes with the UCT shirt BigBen2009-09-05 12:56:24

If I had only one bike I would try to get a decent full suspension .....

yup, there's a difference between a soft tail and a full/dual susser... But we know what you mean, so just a lil word on the terminology... Welcome back Barry! Nice ride Sunday mate.

For the those concerned with style how about this :- http://www.bikeradar.com/gear/category/accessories/luggage/hydration-pack/product/racebak-hydration-vest-33889 Saw Bryce from DCM used one at Blockhouse on the weekend. Off course gives you hydration only and doesn't double as a camping pack as some seem to use Camelbak's for ....BigBen2009-08-31 12:05:10

Well I needed to help E1 strip the bike for cleaning etc and you should have seen the wifes face when we wheeled it into the house!!!! brave okes the 2 of you! If I don't ride that fixie at least once a week I may be under pressure to get rid of it but it is good fun!

Gotta love that 'picked up another stray' Dellboy ...... doubt my wife will 'fall' for that line!

Wollen sie ein wand besteigen
