    Pair of Raleigh Bombers

    Hi guys, long time no see, just picked up this matching pair of Raleigh Bombers, haven't done anything with them yet, but I'll start a build thread and date them etc... when I make my start. These will be built as a 'His n hers' setup as my SO has just expressed an interest in coming riding...

    20" crank 26" bike?

    AFAIK so long as the axle is the right diameter and length for the bearing shell you're good to go...

    OI OI!!!

    Hey fella, wherebouts in the UK are you? If it's not too far I'd be interested in checking out the stretched, and while I'm no fabricator I can make a bike work no problems :D. and yep, I think 'Push Bike' is a British thing, dunno why though.

    My latest build. The Taxi Bike.

    Diggin' the magic tree, but that would look truly epic with a taximeter, any ideas for that come up yet?

    Fuji Fixie

    Ditto, the seat takes a while to gum up,but babywipes dont to shabby a job, but the white bar tape is a PITA, especially when i rock no gloves... or black gloves , but still looks funky imho

    Trapped Chilean miners

    Is it true that they reckon on it being christmas before theyre out? just heard someone talking about it in the street... man thats worse than prison... atleast in prison theres light and 15mins exercise break...

    Chain break that doesnt break?

    I use the exact same tool as this, albeit with a different name, and imo its not a bad tool, not the best, but its done 35-40 chains so far, mostly crusty stuff too, but the threads on the T-handle section are getting a lil' floppy now, still works mind!

    Trapped Chilean miners

    Agreed man, agreed... a whole lotta people without a whole lotta anything, other than hopes and prayers... I just hope they get out in 1 piece and all present and accounted for.

    Hat/helmet/hair situation when you ride?

    Usually i just rocked the big mop of hair, occasionally with a hat (RRB trucker anyone? :D) to keep the 'do in check, but since ive cut me hair this week, Ive been riding without a ...... thing on my head... feels great. But then as a kid i never wore a lid, lids and things just weren't 'right'...
