With headset and fitting service. 18 inches, sadly no pink ones available, but then again people may see me and think Andy got fat, ugly, slow and more strangely "went straight" :roll:0 -

Lovit that it's 'I have just ordered' as opposed to bought.... Does anyone buy anything that's not over £10 from your LBS?
Online is just so much better... you can get what you want as opposed to what they stock...0 -

A pair of these:
90mm for Gripshift. They're for the XTC. Which is now starting to cost me money. £11.99 for these and the £5.99 for the seatpost shim. Damm, this is becoming a very expensive bike... :shock: 0 -
more grip clamps, dont order custom engraved ones at 2 am while drunk........I've waited two weeks for these, then when they arrive theres just one clamp of each esign I ordered, read the small print kids0

Ordered earlier an On One tapered (reducer) headset, plus fitting, for the carbon 456.
Just recieved an email to say the items will be shipped asap.. so, hopefully the build will begin soon!
Running low on funds this month though (after frame etc..), so just ordered as a temporary fix:
Red superstar seatclamp, 34.9mm (£5.99 - bargainous, just wish they did QR ones!)
Cheapo generic alloy seatpost, 31.6mm (tenner new off fleabay)
Both of these will get changed with next months pay though, to a red QR seatclamp (Hope/KCNC) and a carbon post of some sort..
Keep your eyes out for the WIP thread soon to appear!

Topeak Mountain Morph pump - not the mini 'caz I am a geezer!!!
I hope (after a series of 'not-so-good' pumps that this lives up to the hype!!!)

The Big Cheese I've got that pump, I think you'll be very pleased with it! Pumps a tyre up to a good high pressure in a minute or so with no real effort going into it. Good choice!It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Join us on UK-MTB we won't bite, but bring cake!
