Re: Mr Postman

Same reason I didn't pursue it myself, laziness, lol. Good luck with your claim. I can't remember the firm I used but they looked into bank charges, account costs etc. Got a decent return.

... manuals out to check torque settings before they do anything and talk you through any issues they may have found. They have done the tyre at the same price as http://www.oponeo.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; so there's no complaints from me.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Cookie most manufacturers specify a diameter the rivet should spread too. If you can't source that info check the width is the same and the link is not tight and you should be fine. Knowing you mate I'm sure you've done a top job (y) Cheers chappie - I'll have a look. Its an Afam chain ...

Grounded helicopters... 4 days before demob. We use the same type that just crashed in Norway.

Re: What are you eating ??

Cheeseburger and fries with a Diet-Coke to keep my svelte figure to it's usual trim rotund form.
