I've read a few good long threads that have put a smile / look of horror on my face and wonder if anyone's got any favourites they could link me to please? I'm thinking Speedking kind of stuff but I also read about the Ti / Carbon Merlin frame with great interest.

Not really an epic thread, but someone from my Uni start talking crap and I called his bluff. He has edited his post but luckily I quoted him.

Coachferg's contribution to this thread makes it a classic for me. It's a shame he didn't hang around longer.0

First time I've seen the Oxygen Thief thread - real gem that! I avoid the MTB part of the forum but might pay it some attention if they have regular threads like that.0
