If you can wait till Tuesday, I'll have swung by the Bike Station and selected replacement pedals by then. </p> <p>I have committed a terrible crime against the looks of classic racers and Frankenbiked the bejesus out of black fruity.</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/uberuce/8628926728/in/photostream"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8122/8628926728_56715aa5c1_m.jpg"></a></p> <p>You are not party to this abomination, I hasten to add, Kappers. I needed the lockring spanner for the MTBeam's ~1999 vintage cassette, which had done well but is now a baroque beermat.

Pretty sure the only tool I own that he doesn't is my boltcroppers. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9874#post-107090 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 10:23:56 +0000 Uberuce 107090@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Kaputnik has beaten you to the punch, and I shall be plaintively knocking on his door in a dozen minutes or so, thence may bump into you in Summerhall. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9874#post-107087 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 09:20:39 +0000 wingpig 107087@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Similarly have, and can trundle past Summerhall with them after ten if you've not acquired one before then. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9874#post-107084 Sun, 07 Apr 2013 08:39:56 +0000 steveo 107084@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I also have one you're welcome to.

Got to replace a sharkie-toothy cassette, and while I can easily afford the apparently eight quid the device costs, I'd rather just buy a CCE person a bun, or coffee or favour. </p>
