Personally I'd spend my money on better schooling if I were you... However, its an excellent bike with good geometry for low-mid level riders and they tend to be pretty strong. Tough choice.
I take Glucosamine tablets pretty often now, i used to wake up in the morning, go to run up the stairs and collapse in a heap when my knees would just give way. Seem to be a bit better now, just the odd pain now and again.
Degrease the rim (use Muc-Off or a soapy water mix that is then washed off). Let them bed in for a while. If they're still shit try setting them up again/differently.
My brother went to a school on a corner of a very busy area in London. The entrace/exit of the school cut the corner, so they blocked off the main road and directed all the traffic through the school. They also used weed killer to write 'Lennon [the headmaster] is a lemon' on the bank which was right outside his office. Our school was pretty boring, and our last day was on the same day as the funeral for one of the old dudes who worked there who was a bit of a legend. So we couldn't do too much out of respect.
Yep, you're right. But that means the oil is still around for people to use. The oil companies are gonna own the oil, and will sell it at an inflated price once we've all become desperate. Oil companies tend to be non-government organisations as they're simply too big and are worth more than many governments combined.
Anyone (Luke/Rowan?) know of any cheap places to spend the night? Looking at about 5 people. Travel lodges work out around 25 per person for one night, which is pretty expensive. Any decent places? Theres a youth Hostel but I don't particularly like the idea of taking the bikes there.
I'd go BB7 every time. Mines been perfect. I snapped the caliper/adaptor, but that was a second hand brake that was about 3 years old. Everyone i know who has a mono trials has had problems with it, many are wanting to change to a BB7.
