So today was the day we took the bike over to Manchester.Our son has bought a fixie.I took off all his bits from the kids bike.Lights,pump ,holder,lock ,lock bracket,and over we went.Putting the bike together was a breeze.But sadly at the end i found i had left his rear lamp bracket on his kids bike.No problems home unscrewed it,in a jiffy bag and down to the PO.Now it is just the bracket nothing heavy nothing big.But a staggering £3-45p in postage,i nearly fainted.Anyway snow began to fall outside and we decided to leave early,not getting chance to fine tune his saddle position or height and i knew his bars were too far pointing down,but hey what do i know.Well it dried up enough for him to have a little ride in his cul de sac.Well it seems little tweekes need doing,but he cannot undo the bolts i tightened,boy how strong am i.But we cannot go over for three weeks to sort it out.Oh the trials of being a parent.PS just something i did notice when he sat on it for,the first time.Those jeans with the ars hanging down behind the knees and all underpants showing well they got caught up on the saddle.He is going to need some proper jeans on .
