Matt is it cool if i drop over and get another set of forks drilled to accept a new brake bolt?
Ive set up Charlottes bike fixed with the wheels off my raleigh but i dont trust the old brake on it. If its cool let me know when i can pop over.

need help with a miche bottom bracket i think. got all the tools today and started working on it, but need a 7mm allen key to get my campag cranks off, and such a thing seems to be rare, at least in all toolshops i've been to today. would it be cool to drop by tomorrow? what time's good?

edit: what would be your preferred method of bribery? alcoholic beverages?

matt, sheep, can't make it over to tools and breaky as have some annoying things to attend to. would be cool if one of you could slip a lockring tool into your pocket and bring to polo.

I found a shop selling new hollow s/s clubs for 1.50.

I got 3 clubs - you can buy one off me. I need to come by and sort the rest of the stuff out.
