Tea? (Part 1)

[Landslide]

Evenings! You got your hands on the frame yet TD?

 

[TheDoctor]

Trinka,

Are these the droids you're looking for?

 

[spandex]

Chocolate? It's a good job Arch isn't here. The temptation may be too much

How about me I am drooling just thinking about it

 

[HelenD123]

How about me I am drooling just thinking about it

But you haven't give up chocolate for Lent.

 

[spandex]

But you haven't give up chocolate for Lent.

You are right but I do not have any so I might as well as have given it up for Lent

 

[tdr1nka]

Those are kind of the droids I'm looking for it's true.
No sign of the frame today but BC might not call until they have fitted the headset & brakes. I still have to wait for a cheque to clear so I really shouldn't get impatient.

I have v-brakes on order but I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to adjusting/setting up and really prefer center pull at the end of the day.

I could also nix the cost of the v-brakes by using the center pulls I have on the hack.

 

[TheDoctor]

Hmmm. I find V-brakes quite easy to set up, but cantis have about 5 axes of adjustment for me to get wrong I can usually achieve a sound like a cat with its tail stuck in a toaster, combined with the decelerative properties of a bar of soap in the bath, gripped with teflon gloves.

 

[Radius]

Dom v brakes piece o' pi---oh, this is 'tea', piece o' (tea and) cake to set up compared to cantis! But yes the saving money might be worth while, depending on how much said on-order brakes cost?

 

[tdr1nka]

Hmmm. I find V-brakes quite easy to set up, but cantis have about 5 axes of adjustment for me to get wrong I can usually achieve a sound like a cat with its' tail stuck in a toaster, combined with the decelerative properties of a bar of soap in the bath, gripped with teflon gloves.

This has been my experience with v-brakes thus far.

TBH If I start with the v-s' I can always swap to the center pulls if I can't cope. There you go Radius, a good reason to come round and help me out.

 

[Angelfishsolo]

Good morning all. I have a fresh pot of tea ready and waiting.

 

[tdr1nka]

You Beauty!

Mornin' btw

Here Angelfish, every time I read your location I hear Eddy Grant and the Equals singing; 'Cwmbach(dah dee dee dah dee),Baby Cwmbach.......'

 

[Angelfishsolo]

Morning tdr1nka - Hope the Tea's OK. Oh and help yourself to the biscuits. There's Shortbread in that tin somewhere

 

[tdr1nka]

Tea is my life blood, all butter shortbread is the food of the Gods but I'm not sure they breakfast on it!

 

[Angelfishsolo]

I need energy for my ride today so the Gods' diet sheet is out of the window . Put a few aside for lunch if you'd like mate

Tea is my life blood, all butter shortbread is the food of the Gods but I'm not sure they breakfast on it!

 

[tdr1nka]

Thanks again! I've put a couple behind my ear for later but now my cycle helmet doesn't fit properly.
