I don't know what size you are lagers (fnarrrrr!) but how about something like these...

6 ft tall, 33" leg

[lagerstarfish]

If you're feeling adventurous...

Single speed? In Sheffield?

[Jaspersharpe]

I keep dropping into this thread to see if they've persuaded you to up your budget to £2k yet lagers. It's only a matter of time. 

[lagerstarfish]

Can you lend me a couple of grand in the next couple of weeks, Jaz? I can pay you back at BoE base rate minus 1%...

[Jaspersharpe]

Try Sloper I hear he's been earning a few quid recently.

[fatdoc]

imho don't believe a word that JEJ tell you

Sorry to come into this so late..

ring them up. go see them. get good advice, buy bike, ride bike

Voila!

it's like getting the good service that one used to get in a shop.. honest!

(no, i'm not on commision)

[chappers]

their pics on the site look odd? on some of the willier bikes they have what looks like a mix of campag and shimano equpment??

cant you just get an on-one pompy and be done with it. strong legs if you rode single about sheffield i bet!
charge make a bike (mixer?) with a shimano hub gear maybe 5speed that looks nice, a guy rides the opposite way to me every day on one with mudguards and rack. and they are british (obv made in the far east...)

edit:

[lagerstarfish]

Thanks to bigd942 I will be starting with a frame plus some other bits and building a road eating super machine for as little money as I can. The idea of re-using someones unwanted parts to do my work journeys has a certain appeal (not to mention the fact that my Lycra budget will be that much higher as a result).

So, I'll be abandoning this thread and starting another trying to scrounge any parts/advice that I might need.

amazing value for the price as it gets you into full suspension-dom, review

[Mike Tyson]

Woohoo! That's the one I have just ordered soapy, it's 6 weeks until it's back in stock though but will be worth the wait hopefully.

[SA Chris]

If that doesn't get rid of the final remains of that "humdrum" from alst year, nothing will.

[Mike Tyson]

Humdrum is officially on it's way out now Chris, thanks to a return to climbing, less boozing, healthier eating and not having to deal with the inlaws any more. Sweet.
