Re: powder coating

PPS in Inverurie do them for about £40 to £50 a wheel. I keep meaning to take a pair up the to get done. If it helps, I have a spare pair you could use to get done so yours isn't off the road for too long. Are you going to be renewing the bearings and seals at the same time? Cheers for the heads ...

Re: powder coating

Cheers Tony, good info mate. That at least is a good reference for a bargaining tool knowing what it should be. Obviously I would for convenience sake want to get this done round my way so knowing this info at least makes me look like less of a lemon now. Failing that, I have a cunning plan. I have ...

powder coating

I know many of you have had your wheels powder coated and I'm interested in what it cost....from shot blasting the wheels to powder coating them? I've just had a couple of eye watering quotes through from local specialists, well at least I think they are expensive but the truth is I've no idea what ...

Re: Olympics

I was quite impressed with the way that coincidentally no other news of any importance happened during those two weeks. Even Al Q'eada was having the time off, probably glued to the screen. Prior to that two weeks the situation in Syria, the middle east in general, pork belly rices in the mid-west,...

Re: Olympics

Bah humbug.....what a load of old bollox the whole thing is. Just another tool to facilitate the hegemony of the power keepers to pacify the masses. Nothing is gained by such organised sports celebrating human achievments when these are meaningless. Ffs sort out something important. I am sickened to...

name that film

Cant remember the title or all of the plot but remember this movie from the 70's and its bugging me. Basically there are these 2 nerdy guys in a hot rod type old american car racing their way across america. Every time they race they take off the wipers to save weight. The car looks like a 1930' typ...

Re: Hein Gericke Closing down sale!

I for one am not bothered they have closed. My experiences were pushy wet behind the ears sales staff who knew bog all about biking and were boderline rude. The very best bike accessories shops are run and staffed by enthusiasts who guide you to the correct purchase, rather than punting you stuff be...

Re: well done andy murry

Makes you wonder. Murray thrashes the crap out of Federer and Djokovic and I mean thrashes, yet.....come the major finals he gets busted. Same story with other non major finals. Murray lives with the best of them. He's beaten Federer and the Spanish fella lots of times (not you Marty). :lol: So what...
