That Cinelli is sweet. I used to have one and loved it. Prolly has horizontal drop-outs as well. $750 for what is on it is very reasonable. OP? you watching? That has Operator written all over it.
$450 for a 2002 bike? Save up another $100 and buy a brand new one.

bling bling schwiiing

People who don't live downtown aren't really people

waiiit a minute? CV = beer? i thought it was some sort of group ride?

it sounds like a uh....parking lot alcohol fest!!!

Can I join in on the CV? I'd like to meet some of you T.O. fixers in person.

it's a group ride, but i think i lit a fire in some people when i suggested we bring beer along to quaff mid ride or after or whatever. i just like beer is all.

looks like rain from where i am; if there is water coming from the sky, i'll probably stay home otherwise it's H.E. parking lot at 10 for me.

****, man if I had $750 right now, i'd be all over it :|

CV! kick ass!

Question: What's up with the cards in fixie spokes?

Behold, the confirmatory Critical Vacuum post!

Bring your own beer, trampolines, and laffy taffy.



mmm.... laffy taffy. PM me for a cell phone if you can't make it on time or somesuch.

OPerator what's the final verdict on your frame? tube replace?.... frame? What size you runnin'?

laffy taffy ....i like it.

Yeah cavernmech is setting me up with a kickass deal on a tube replace. Then i'm not sure, probably rebuild it as a geared roadie and then either getting a fixed rear wheel or getting a totally new build for a beater fixie. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go with a repair given the initial purchase price of the frame but I just liked it too much.

It was fun as hell kicking $5k full carbon bikes up DVP on a fixie.

Frame size wise anywhere I think 54-55cm is about right for me. Or whatever size goki was running on his Nishiki beater (yeah teh beater with NJS stuff).

P.S No cv for me guys

hey, it was the only bar/stem i had lying around! and it's yours until you get your ride back. i'm pretty sure it's a 54. cam would know how big cam is.

I forgot I have laundry to do I'll pass on the CV

I'll bring my clown pants, crack-pipe, and 16 yr old fixie groupies. No sharsies!

I think I just saw myself on global news RFH coverage.
They zoomed in on me in a mass of cyclists riding across gardiner. Wohoo for red contrasting dorky yellow volunteer shirt!

mmm.... clown pants.

no

Actually i have to give keith his wheel back haha. Or i'll just buy it. And i'm definitley bigger than cam.

Giggidy giggidy g00.

And I have to wash my hair. *cough* slacker *cough*

Kiss my royal blue arse I really am busting a gut trying to get all of it done so I can go

Boo! Boo! Rubbish! Filth! Slime! Muck! Boo! Boo! BOO!!!

Wtf I don't recall saying that

Royal Blue?....Oh right...the saddle/bike position trouble. right right. Thanks for the offer but I only go for normal skin colour ass, and I have sampled many colours of the rainbow, but I draw the line at blue.
"Steeker?"
"Yes Mom?"
"Have you done your stinky a$$ laundry yet?"
"No Mom"
"Well no fun C.V. rides until you do all your chores and laundry!"
"Yes Mom"
