"pereira" means pear tree apparently.. Spanish slang for "a nightclub with lots of fit women inside possessing large breats"
I know I'm a newb and everything, but is a 'large breat' a specific component?

Will it help with my chainline?

And how much will it cost Vaz to respray one?

Yes, like breasts but bigger.
No, it will make your chainline worse as you concentration is inversely proportional to the size of the breats.
Vaz quoted me £40 for the spray. The rub down is free.

nah, thats a genuine san franciscan winged rat. if you kill one it gets reincarnated as a homeless person, and visa versa.

I was gonna make a similar comment, but then realized a non-asian looking girl on a picture he took on his recent trip to Japan might just be his.. hm.. I dunno.. girlfriend?

Is she really into bikes or did she pose there to make you happy? hehe..

ImOnCrank: I like the inverse paint scheme - reversing the colours of the bike from before its demise and subsequent rebirth - Its a nice touch and am glad that you finally got yer decals. Please don't smash this one up any time soon.

I'moncrank, i don't think your Hed3 quite works on this bike

Looks perfect on your bareknuckle, but really clashes with witcomb. i recommend matching it to the rear. would look a treat!

what's the advantage of a 3 spoke wheel on the front? is it lighter than a normal wheel?
