    very nice, but I've never known anyone say they are from tyne and wear. you must be some sort of crazy mixed up sandancer, or not a native

    canny drop as well, full two courses, respect
  • Super Winter bike, the bright yellow will help you be seen in the dark days ahead :)

    Nice boardman by the way, looks very neat and tidy.......
    I like shiny bikes - especially Italian ones.....!!
  • Hi.. hope you can help. My Boardman headset has seized and all i can see is that its an FSA orbit but don't know which particular model.. can you help? The Boardman website is of little to no use as were the dullards in Halfords today...(sad but TRUE!!)
    Regards
    Gary
