SE bikes have a long heritage in the BMX market with design classics such as the PK Ripper but they’re fairly new in the 700c fixed market, prototyping in 2007 and rolling out the range in 08. For 09 the beer-inspired range has three flavours: Draft, Lager and Premium. We suspect the £429 Lager will be the big seller in the main fixed markets, with its brash graphics and solid spec. For your cash you get a Cromoly frame and fork, Formula/Alex wheels with a flip-flop hub, FSA running gear and Tektro stoppers. All in weight is a claimed 21.5lb, so it’s light enough to chuck about town without fear of it falling apart – all the kit is nice and solid. Brick Lane Bikes sell the most (unsurprisingly) but they’re available in independent bike dealers throughout the UK.

Eh? Is this just meant to be 'late'?
Yeah - the mods normally get around to that eventually...
@kinderje It's not a soft punishment at all. Young men transferred to adult prisons are frequently raped by older long-term prisoners. He will find adult prison a very frightening experience.
I have installed these brakes on my XC bike (Scott Spark RC) that had the excellent Shimano 9100 but I picked up the 9220s on a very good deal and after a very easy installation was very pleased with them in all respects. I like the smooth lever feel and modulation especially. I will keep them on the bike and transfer the 9100 to a Scott Scale Gravel that I have. Totally puzzled about why wet weather would affect the bite point...more realistically the air that you may have allowed to enter during installation was released and caused the change in lever pull.
@mdavidford The same applies to people. Well some people anyway.
Surprise! - spaces are nicer when cars are removed from them! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8jnmzekx0ro
@belugabob I read about it on the BBC website. For those who haven't, it's the writer Lynda la Plante who managed to rack up 24 points on her licence including five tickets for speeding on the same stretch of road in six months and so was banned for a fairly lenient six months. She asked for more leniency from the magistrates on the basis that she needed to drive her car to go and meet criminals to get material for her stories and that she wouldn't be able to take her dog for a walk. She tried to claim that losing her car would mean the end of her writing career and having to have her dog rehomed. A Guardian feature in 2003 estimated that her personal fortune from her writings was in excess of £30 million, but obviously spending a few thousand pounds over six months on Ubers would be well beyond her means…
@mitsky I've had a number of those letters from Arriva, I've been informed by somebody who used to work for them in a clerical capacity that the "incident discussed and appropriate action taken", if there is no police action, generally amounts to the shift manager saying, "Oi Fred, some bloody cyclist has been complaining about you again, watch yourself, will ya?"
@belugabob I did. Lynda La Plante's list of excuses for her 24 points is pathetic. As is her engagement of the lawyer Mr Poophole.
The bus driver cannot slow down and stop behind the cyclist, and yet she has plenty of time for an argument.
