    Nicely slammed there sir, those wheels look like they will be a trifle fun in a crosswind. Plus side, whoosy noises will be very loud so I whole heartily approve.
    Saddle height does make that stem slam look far more than it really is!

    Chapeau sir, chapeau.

    i took instructions from the best re slamming :)

    when you have as much talent as me the wheels aren't too too bad - an average club rider wouldn't be able to use them though.

    i have a 60 on N1 that i slip in if it looks well gusty but as we all know, better to burn out than fade away.

    drop looks cool & slammed though :)

    also makes it nicer to wheelie wi
    th the big phats on.

    Stem slamming is contagious, eyeing up N1 for some slamming.

    I doubt I have talent, more just luck on my part wit hthe wheels I dont pop wheelies I'd fall off like a clubbie. I do cool kid skids an bunny hop things to annoy people (an steal KOMS)

    New cages in ninja black or with green bits?

    skids rock. the trick of champions

    #skids

    ninja black - i don't really like colours. i actually thought this was black before it arrived and was surprised to see it was grey.

    it'll probably get repainted by brush in a couple if years and slam a proper groupset and some tan walls on it.

    well, reading some people on this forum allegedly using tubs means that you will die for some reason, so no harm in just running a bare rim i suppose.

    What drop would the calipers be? :lol: Would look like some salad tongs bolted to your fork

    i'll just nail some bits metal with holes drilled in to the forks so i can mount the caliper at the right height.

    at the end of the day, its a plastic cervelo.

    Upload to third party website.

    Copy link (BB CODE)

    Insert the BB code between tags. Use the full editor to see.  Don't use photobucket.

    I can see the pic on your flickr, Dave, but I can't post it here either. Must be something to do with your settings..

    Flickr is a pain in da ass.

    Using the arrow key on the flickr photo you selected (bottom right corner) then you will get 4 share options: Share...Embed...Email...BB Code.
    Click on BB Code. Then you'll have a long string like this. Highlight the whole link and paste it on here:

    "[url=httpg: //flic.kr/p/ppRQGQ]imghtyps:/ /live.staticflickr.com/3952/15366209400_b22844efe8_ k.jpg[/img[/url][url=hytps://flic.kr/p/%20ppRQGQ]DSC00424[/url] by [url=httrs://www.flickr.com/photos /pinarello001/JoeBloggs[/url], on Flickr"

    That ^ works BTW.

    For example (same string as above without editing)

    15366209400_b22844efe8_k.jpgDSC00424 by JoeBloggs, on Flickr

    But, if you want a clean image without the peripherals, delete everything bar da da da to[img]. For example: (same string as above but with everything outside of img (in hard brackets twice): [imghttps://live.staticflickr.com/3952/15366209400_b22844efe8_k.jpg[/img]

    I have taken out a hard bracket from above so that you can see the edited link.

    The link, without Flickr 'I own the rights to this image bollox':

    15366209400_b22844efe8_k.jpg

    For all other images, right click > click on 'copy image address' > paste here > highlight link > click on img above ^ in the post editing bar.

    Obviously I am doing some thing wrong, I am using Flickr

    When I am using an iOS device Flickr doesn’t generate the correct bb code anymore for some reason, it doesn’t even bring up the option. I have to go through a 3rd party website to generate the correct code from the Flickr shared link.

    Dave - are you on a PC or doing the whole thing from phone?

    If so, you need to copy that link into this website

    https://tools.sportscard.trade

    Then it spits out the link for you.
