FSA Team Issue Mega Exo Bottom Bracket

Shimano UN 72 Tapered bottom bracket

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Breaks easily

I have had three or four of these because they were cheap, it turned out that in the long run it was cheaper to save up and buy a decent bottom bracket. Everyone of these that I bought broke in under a month, the same two faults occured each time. 1) Mud and grit easily get past the seals and wear out the bearings causing them to cease or rattle. 2) The ends of the tapered arms round off very easily, even during light XC and commuting use I have rounded them off. Steer clear and buy a decent bottom bracket, or even better get the new external type, or if your into jumping and DH get some 3piece cranks. ...

Review of UN 72 Shimano Tapered Bottom Bracket BS 68mm

libertines - up the bracket

Advantages: Some great tunes, Petes Vocals
Disadvantages: Petes drug habit and the bad press it gives the band.

The Libertines - Up the bracket. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Pete Doherty it seems like you cannot open a newspaper with out some headline or other screaming about his on/off relationship with Kate Moss or his appalling drug habit.

The Libertines formed in about 1998 when Carl barat and Pete Doherty were introduced to each other by Pete's sister, it wasn't long before they were playing guitars, writing songs and planning their careers in the music world. After this first meeting the boys started to play lots of small gigs with various different band members over the years, even including a 63 year old drummer at one point! The lads had a few ups and downs but come 2002 they ...

Review of Up The Bracket - Libertines (The)

bottom

Advantages: great comedy, at it's rudest
Disadvantages: only three series

** When Edmondson and Mayall teamed up to make this show they already had a good comical reputation after both appearing in the Young ones. The slapstick comedy and over the top fighting make the show side-splittingly hilarious with no holes barred. The chemistry between these two great comical geniuses is like something never seen before as they seem to thrive off each other, their slapstick timing is simply excellent and will keep you laughing from the start right through to the end. If you like seeing a man being smashed over the head with a rubber frying pan (with dodgy sound effects) or enjoy listening to rather risqué comments and innuendos then you will laugh at this sort of slapstick comedy. If, however, you do not like watching two scruffy layabouts knock the living daylights out of each other, in a comical way that is ...
