Established middle class for the win.

Geometry is 1065, 360, +70, 73°, 660 reach according to Dave. Haven't measured anything myself.

I know and that's one of the reasons I got it but at the same time it makes me feel a little dirty having it on there...

And then squished it and changed it from ally to steel.

Before: After: I know, I know, it's got an Onza stem... I've been toying with the idea of getting a more hoppy frame for a while to mix it up a bit but the options out there for dual disk 24" are pretty limited so when Dave B (isitafox) got this 'temporary' frame while waiting for a replacement I started thinking... For a very reasonable sum, plus a cheap Onza stem I've got my hoppy bike and still have the Team frame to go back to if/when I fancy.

I say GENEVA, and you hear HELSINKI?!? 40 million f**king Deutsche Marks Bob!!

Same. At work we run a dual monitor system but with one in landscape and one in portrait and that occasionally catches me out when the cursor is stuck too low on the portrait one to make it across to the landscape!

How long does it take to get the mouse cursor from one end to the other? Also, if you pop out for a cuppa and forget where the cursor was, what's the longest it's taken you to track it down?! Seems crazy to me.

That's my educated guess . Edit: From a knowledgeable sounding dude on vintage-radio.net And from answers.yahoo:

Diagram time. Because the individual phases drive the individual stators (?) if you knock one out of the loop the motor should continue spinning (though possibly less smoothly than before) but with load it will be more likely to lose speed and stall.

Another guess here (I probably should know but don't) is that the remaining two phases continue to turn the motor at the same speed as it was before (assuming it's not under much load) but it would subsequently have less torque available and would be more likely to stall.

Cool beans, cheers Mark I may have just bought Dave Barratt's first dual disc 24" Marino frame for a bit more of a bouncy bike (on a budget) and have no idea what sort of ratio is required for this natural/TGS type riding malarky!

What gearing are you running Joe?

There's a reason the feds were after these guys. We've seen video of them at the marathon with backpacks on (I imagine these have been at least partially matched to the remnants of the bomb blasted bags or they have video of them leaving without the bags. Regardless they carried on to murder a policeman, hijack a car, get in to a gun fight with police and throw bombs at them then the remaining dude hid from the police then had another gun battle with them. I don't know about you but that's exactly what I'd have done if I was in there situation and completely innocent. Oh no, wait, that's the opposite of what I'd do. The proof isn't that they ran the proof is that they were armed and ready for a siege situation and were quite happy to kill a policeman and attempt to take the lives of many others maintain their freedom. Even if they aren't the bombers (which I expect they are/were) they have proven that they're murderous c**ts who deserve whatever punishment the law wants to deal out.

But that's part of it- by claiming so completely that the atrocity was caused by the Government it turns the/ whole thing into a mockery. I would imagine what the families want is justice and some idea why the nutters did what they did and if conspiracy numpties have their way that would simply never happen. Edit; to JD.

Bloody hell, you're actually serious? Wow. The only link to what happened is the fact that the episode used the Boston Marathon as the basis and seeing as it's an American series it was only ever going to have been the Boston or New York marathons so Seth had a 50% chance of foreseeing the future. So yeah, I don't really think any further explanation is needed as to why there's a Family Guy episode that mentions the Boston Marathon...

Quote from their uncle:

Really like that- very slick and professional looking but then I don't expect anything less from you boys!! Edit: One thing that would be cool to see in a future edition would be a bike check for the various rides maybe with some comments from the boys about the choices of components etc. Anyway, awesome work

Most interesting thing about that is that he was last seen on there today at 5.04am via mobile... Is the guy in the video his dead brother?

That's the stupidest thing you've posted yet. So now you're saying Seth MacFarlane was in on the bombings? You're just digging a deeper hole now...

What, you mean a public outcry, search of CCTV and photos to try and sus out who placed the bombs then a massive manhunt to chase down said suspects? The dead policeman at MIT and the car chase is a little Hollywood but if you've done something like this you're never going to go quietly so some kind of chase/showdown is to be expected too. So extremist Muslim Chechens done it... are they on the CIA books or are they actually shapeshifting lizards?

If I had the money to burn I'd probably get one just for the sake of it. Will be interesting to see how they last in the real world.

That's not how it works though. Do they make all people entering the country at Heathrow/Gatwick/Dover etc. sign a contract saying they agree to adhere to the laws of the country? Nope, the fact they're in the country means they're expected to follow the laws of the land. Same with being born here. As a person living in the UK you are governed by the laws of the country regardless of any worthless paperwork.

Someone arrested in connection with bombings. I'm guessing he won't be an active CIA or FBI agent... Edit: Police are now denying the report.

And again, how stupid do you take the FBI to be (they are Americans after all) to stage such training exercises before carrying out attacks for real? The concept is laughable. Hide in plain sight- is that a motto of the FBI?
