What made you LOL today?
- Thread starter AlienALX
- Start date
lol it's close ! I'm actually working on this atm.
What's funny about it? ever bought Titanium parts? if you didn't laugh you'll cry
There's £50 there.
Try having a special Cove Bikes frame made from Titanium and then cry when you hand over £2900 for just the frame. £2900 was a lot for me back in 2005
And they were even nice enough to let me choose a name from their current line. It was either the Stiffee or the Hand job. I went with the one I feel whenever I looked at the bike complete
And thank god I never knew they had one called the STD. I would definately have "got that" instead.

Laird charges that much for a Ti bmx frame.
And yeah £50 is pittance but not when you won’t ever ride it lmao.
The bikes I collect are all north of 40lb. That one is alu and was the lightest strong frame made then, so I’m on a mission to make it my lightest for absolutely no good reason lol.
I’d love a Ti frame but I can’t ride as I want to and it’s been proven to be a bad idea in bmx. No one will warranty a Ti frame, and Ti is extremely unpredictable. It’s accepted that basically it’s extremely strong until it isn’t and when it fails man does it fail.
Obs on a mtb you have suspension and much bigger wheels and not 120 psi tyres so it’s a much better match.
Nice frame btw! I don’t ride mtbs but I love all bikes big and small

Those fat wheels are so nice, I miss doing BMX, I used to do it from around the age of 10 to late 20's so got really good at it, Actually got close to a sponsorship once but since I started my natural bodybuilding a few years ago I got big really quickly as I seem to have decent genes for it so a tiny bike got a little unwieldy.
I may take up trials to get my biking and trick fix when I move flat.

Got a phone scam from India today and thought I'd try a different routine, Usually I'm Hanz the German disco owner or Vlad the Russian diamond dealer from Moscow looking for extra strong vodka but today I thought I'd try something different, Today I put on a bit of a pre-recorded sounding voice -
Scammer- Hello this michael from microsoft windows you are having virus on your computer am i speaking to owner of computer ?
Me - "Hello..... you have reached.... Englands premier gay escort service, Proudly serving the beautiful hairy men of England since 2017..... please say the number of the option you would like... 1.... if you want to book an appointment... 2.... if you want to be added to our subscription service or............. 3... if you would like to be removed from our mailing and phone in list..."
At this point I'm truly amazed he's still on the line.
Scammer - "I am wanting 3 please remove me from gay list I do not like gay I don't want to go to hell"
Me - "Thank you for choosing....... 2, We will now add your personal details to our subscription service where hot hunky hairy men will contact you everyday"
Hangsup.... #winning
I have never heard such panic in a mans voice before and it was glorious
