Forum name change?
hey guys

All i wont to do is change my forum login name from my old account called "windy81"

is that possible ? i mean can admin bend the rules a bit to achieve this ?

I've hence opened this account with my proper name "Dylan" which seems more appropriate than my gaming alias "windy81"

cheers for any help in advance

I thought this was going to be someone demanding the forum's name be changed to (the proper) 'London Fixed WHEEL and Single Speed'.

Sorry...

Hael, the standard arguments are that;

1] SS bikes are fixed gears as there is one fixed gear ratio
2] Fixed wheel refers to a bike with no free wheel

Some people argue that unicycles or direct drive bikes are fixed wheels, what is generally missed is that point 2 actually covers these as they have no freewheel.

Indeed it does. It's all the fault of the red light jumping helmet refusenik PC brigade.

Bring back hanging and grammar schools.

i ride a near-OTP fuji track and i'm happy to admit it. it's still a better bike than the majority of shit 'custom' fixie-bikes ridden by the floppy-haired gits i go flying past on my daily commute. :D

yeah it gradually gets more and more custom as parts need replacing. custom is good, but OTP can be a better bike than a bodged custom job. you know, cos they're put together by people who know what they're doing.

of course, on this forum all the custom bikes are perfect.
