What did you do to your bike today? (v2)
blueee:
patched a pretty huge tear in the sidewall of my torn tioga powerblock a while back. well i put the tire back on yesterday, pumped it up, loaded it up in my truck and went for a ride.
well i went for a swim instead and when i got back to my truck the tires were completely deflated. fuck. i knew i shouldnt have fucked with that tire, now im out a tube as well.
well i checked out the tube and turns out a patch slipped n started leaking. ha! patched it and good to go.
16 patches on this tube :p

Yep. Zane's got it. There is no surface. I just rolled it on my BMX bike and it's nice and smooth even with 100psi in the tires.
I'll grab some pics of it completed once I yank it out of the garage to load it up.

Jesus christ!
Im getting fucked off with something going wrong EVERYTIME I ride.
Managed to get everything but the brake dialed, rode for about an hour then the fucking tire blew out.
Always the back aswell which is a real bitch to change the tube on.
Proper hate my bike recently, rode for 3 years with no problems and no maintenance and then as soon as I try an get it dailed it just crumbles apart :mad2:

I've always had this with my mtb! Usually rubbing brakes or wheels going out of true during the course of one ride, if not that then gears skipping. Bmx feels solid so far!
