Well, I stand corrected. Apparently you can do superawsomefantasticmegagroovytricks with them. Luckily for us mere mortals, someone has been kind enough to post a video on Youtube. Now please, don't try this at home- I reckon this guy has been a professionally trained barman for many years and this clearly isn't something just anyone can do. Link.

OR JUST BUY A GOD DAMN BOTTLE OPENER.

I thought I must've been missing something like that. The fact that after googling 'bar blade' (because I had no frickin' clue what it was) I found leather holsters available for them I guessed it must be something which deserved much finger pointing and hilarity about. I'm surprised Apple haven't brought out a white plastic version that only work on one type of ibottle.

Or you could just buy a bottle opener. What's with jizzing over a 'bar blade'?

Mm.

I don't think so mate. () Yes the 08 model comes with a front disc, but I'm guessing that seeing as Mr Rib Rider paid £25 at a car boot sale for a partially incomplete bike it's not going to be brand new. Just a guess mind you... With regards brakes, have a look at TartyBikes and sus out what you need. If you could post a few pics of the bike on here we'll be able to tell you what brake's will be compatible (not sure if the frame is made for V brakes or 4 bolt Maguras) and you can go from there.

Pretty sure scammers aren't actually interested in anything in the listing...

A bottle opener?...

Yes. But you'd then be right back to the problems described in this thread of a brake that will need to be set up really close to the rim and wouldn't work with a slightly buckled wheel.

I've always thought you're a bit of a hellraiser, Rowan. To be fair, those are both reasonable questions that I've been asked many times while riding or doing demo's. Without any idea about trials, they'll have no inkling how expensive the bikes are and why would someone associate TartyBikes with what you're doing? It's not like the website reads www.buystrangebouncybikeswithnoseatshere.co.uk...

Not gonna mention the 'K' word. The disc side dropout look like a bit of a bodge- 'Better stick a gusset there'. 'Nope, still cracks'. 'Howabout another one there?'. 'Nope, still cracks'. 'Better add another one there'. 'Bugger, we've run out of places to put gussets'. That, along with the rather basic looking dropout itself doesn't do much for me. Rest of the frame looks reasonable, though it's a dead ringer for the K... or is it the R...

1) That would be in the Winter Olympics. 2) We (read Scotland) rock at Curling.

Lol at the Kiribati team... all three of them.

Go down to your local Hellfrauds with the cranks and ask to borrow theirs. Tends to work best if you actually know someone that works there but they're usually fairly good about those sorts of things.

If that were the case, you'd have a transaction shown in your Paypal account with a 'status: held' or similar. If there's nothing there, he ain't paid.

Clearly what you really meant was 'Kamel '. Sorry Fred, had to be done .

I take it your Paypal account hasn't been credited? If so scam scam scam... report him and get in touch with eBay.

I thought that but I've already destroyed this hub enough so decided better of mentioning it earlier...

Press F5 on the home page .

Track down Danny Mac... he seems to ride Edinburger fairly regularly.

If you're gonna quote Anchorman in your signature, please quote correctly .

A little more violent than that... "Until 1814, the full punishment for the crime of treason was to be hanged, drawn and quartered in that the condemned prisoner would be: 1. Dragged on a hurdle (a wooden frame) to the place of execution. (This is one possible meaning of drawn.) 2. Hanged by the neck for a short time or until almost dead (hanged). 3. Disembowelled and emasculated and the genitalia and entrails burned before the condemned's eyes. (Another meaning of drawn.) 4. Beheaded and the body divided into four parts (quartered)." 5. The five parts (the head and four 'quarters') were then displayed to the public on pikes to show the consequences of treason. Combine that with a savage (though probably brief) raping from Fat Pants prior to all that and it's a pretty nasty way to go.

See that's the thing, I want to like them. Nicely machined and well thought out components would be good to see, but they're not giving me much to work with!!
