Ok so I wanted to swap the bolt because I really liked that nigel seat, but it seems it's impossible to remove the bolt w/o cutting plastic and irreversibly damaging the seat (if anyone knows how to get pivotal bolts in/out of an Animal Nigel Sylvester
Okay so I've made some subtle improvements but think they're clean enough to warrant updating this, any thoughts on aesthetics or suggestions on setup appreciated! So, parts-list is in earlier posts, the new stuff/changes are: Plush Free Agent seat on
Perhaps. We'll see if the next one strips right out, then it's obviously my fault! I'd been using a 6mm allen key, I have to imagine that was proper but maybe it wasn't... dunno or care, but it's just sooo stripped from an allen key that's held vertically ... more »
Thanks for the tips, I think I'll try home depot first and if no luck (common problem, surprisingly) then will order from dan's. Can't say that I think very highly of Animal after this, it's the only animal product i've had and for it to be that stripped ... more »

Not being an ass but are ignorant/presumtive, as I'm on the shorter side and have a 6-pack lol, I'm definitely one of the lighter people posting in this thread (I buy underpants in Children's size large for chrissakes) so it's not my weight. That said, ... more »
Has anybody ridden this? What are your thoughts? I'm in need of a new chain and was decided on the interlock v2 with alternating black/copper links, but have had a couple friends swearing that the chain sucks and that they'd broken them w/o too much ... more »

Wait so you're saying sunday&odyssey are associated? Old fit is called cult, so that's also falling under same people that make s&m? I'm just curious, thanks for any elaboration!
I'll be able to grab a pair for next to nothing this afternoon but am wary they may not be for me, am hoping ppl can explain to me how big of a difference they notice between the thinner and thicker types of pegs? I ride plastic right now but am experienced ... more »

I recently found out that Fit and S&M are run by the same guy, and now have a strong feeling that subrosa &shadow conspiracy are basically one-in-the-same. Anyone know? Would also be curious of other companies that are putting out multiple lines ... more »

I am! Two things though- Firstly I am only trying to trade the stem now, my 'final bike' is very close to done (excepting the LHD!) and the vultus bars are part of it.. Secondly, exactly how do you guys structure trades here? Do you mail to another member ... more »

I've got a couple seats and don't get me wrong, they're both great and I love them both, but my goal right now is to build my 'perfect' bike (currently riding 2 bikes), and that bike's seat is, ideally, a gorgeous, thickly cushioned, 1-piece (think that ... more »

What, like rubbing it by hand? You must be masochistic lol I couldn't even imagine!! I must've spent ~2hrs altogether with the drill's wire-wheel brush attachment sanding those f'ers down to get them raw, am still in the middle of making the finish homogeneous ... more »
Okay so i finally bit the bullet and rawed my crank arms. This was a massive PITA, let me tell you. Anyways, they're raw steel right now, although I still need to spend a little time with sandpaper getting the 'grain' or brushing to look just-right,
