somnambulant 06-19-07 01:23 PM

I bet Cavern just filled with crack monkeys hiding from the rain.. Keith is all like "shoo! shoo!".

Also: you selling the frameset, or complete?

Also * 3: What 29'er you looking at? Misfit?

Bike Clinic has a few used, mostly commuter fare I think, La Carrera is worth a phone call to see if they have any good consignments, they've been doing private consignments for their customers here and there.
Keith got the rest

Hello from NYC, denizens of TOfixed. I gotta say, I've been disappointed by the small number of fixies I've been able to spot around Manhattan. Are they all hiding in the other boroughs or somethin'?

Yo Dom, hook me up with some TrackStar and KingKog stuff! :)

Pretty please?

Ill Mitch 06-19-07 02:34 PM

I got stuck in that storm, luckily I was heading east so I was spinning out the whole way home with that wind, pretty fun but I got soaked. :D

TRaffic Jammer 06-19-07 02:35 PM

Aren't the fixies working the job?

Oh so they have the internet there now? Cool. They'll discover that newfangled fixed gear technology soon enough now :rolleyes:

1. want to sell complete.
2. gonna race the 29er in the fall cross.
3. I want to build my own...but barring that, prolly a Kona.

Keith -- do you have / can you order axles for an IRO rear hub? The formula I bought is a bit narrow for my 126 spacing (not enough threads engaged on the track nuts), but I believe the axle has the same bearing configuration/diameter as the IRO hubs. Guess this extra trouble is what I get for not buying something from you in the first place :P

Most of what I sell are 120 spaced so if you want to bring me yours I will swap it for a 180mm. You can always chop off what you dont need if the extra length bothers ya. Or you can put on some pegs and trick out yo!

Hey Adam, can I get that wheel back from you this week/weekend? If you give Keith a beer he may hold it for me and I can grab it on my way home from work.

I likely won't be out to U of T for a bit.

And are the sprints on for tomorrow?

LordFoo 06-19-07 07:56 PM

Doh! I just brought it down to U of T + locked it to my desk yesterday :) Keith - if it's okay with you, I'll bring it by the shop tomorrow afternoon + we can also talk about my hub.

Yo cavit8 i'm still pouring over this EMT text book and did you ever get to be one?

Danhalen 06-19-07 09:14 PM

My track bike is in the shop right now and the Miele conversion has no cranks. So... I'm fixed-gear-less. I might still make an appearance at the sprints tomorrow night though. Maybe an exception could be made for me (for riding a freewheel) if I don't stop pedalling or change gears? :D That is if I don't clear at Eglington and Bathurst and 6:45 (which I probably will).

Ill Mitch 06-19-07 09:40 PM

HAHAAA!!!

Nice signature

Anyone doing the Hairshirt on Sunday?

If so I'll see you there.
