    Cool.. can I get one in carbon-fibre? :P

    Probably saves the guy replacing all those poorly-tensioned, continuously-breaking 'normal' spokes.

    Do they make spokey-dokeys in that gauge?

    Cost me 1.50UKP for two new spokes for the GT..
    this place sucks when you're spending Aussie pesos!

    It doesn't suck much less when you're spending UKP. Cost of living is higher in UK than it is in Aus.

    Nice, and you get to true it by heating one side of the spoke with an oxy...

    Yeah, but if I'm getting paid in UKP it at least means I don't have to multiply everything by 2.5 to find the "true" cost. Earn 40k in UKP whilst squatting and eating stale bread and bring it back to Oz.. that's better than what I was getting in Melb. Of course, if I'm living in a pub on 5quid/hr, spending every cent on beer and [censored] bike parts.. that's a different story.

    The pound is good if you are earning it.

    yo hippy,
    wiggle.co.uk isnt too bad..sometimes a bit cheaper than probikekit
    condorcycles isnt bad either if in london..i'd avoid evans tho, they seem to
    have crazy prices and even worse service (despite being all over the city)

    I think I might be totally #$%#%$^%$^%$
    Is that a Hub generator he's used?
    Imagine it might be quite fscked by now.

    Actually it was what started it. He uses it to run his own led lights that
    he made.
