"You lads are a bunch of fun. I was only after a bit of information. What's the matter, did the wife take the family brain cell shopping with her?"

Just in case anybody didn't understand what he was saying ;)

What was the question?

Anne, I really don't know. Thanks for the translation earlier, Jon.

Anyone got any ideas?

weeeeeeeeellll....

the angry troll would appear to have got his mitts on either a dynatech (halcyon days, i hated mine with a passion, had 500LX sti on it IIRC, i tried to, ahem, assist the frame to the great bicycle shop in the sky by removing the rear wheel and jumping on the rear triangle but the bl*ody thing was as strong as it was heavy...but i digress) or, drum roll and hushed silence maestro please... an M Trax...a fabulous poster of said wonder bike can be seen here:

http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~hadland/raleigh.htm

just do a search for 'titanium' on the page.

i think that pretty much covers raleigh's involvement with titanium and would also explain the 'hybrid' link as at least the dynatechs were bonded to steel rear ends or something along those lines....

as to whether the angry troll should keep it or sell it...

well if it's a complete bike then i'd say keep it, ride it till it wears out to see if riding after all this time is still something to be spending lots of cash on. if it is then go out and dump the raleigh in a skip and buy a proper bike to ride and enjoy. if selling, don't spend the tenner all at once...

oh and with spelling of that calibre and a fuse that short i thoroughly recommend the mbuk forums...

and as the human torch said more than once...

'flame on'

ta ta.

Good words there, Jason.

Entertainment of this quality (FOC) makes the £45 I pay NTL each month seem a rip off.

Huh?
