Sold my buddy my Agua fork and Twombolts so I could buy an R32 fork and Thunderbolts.  Put on United Williams grips.  Plus a doctor finally diagnosed me with ankysoling spondolitis and started me on Humira so now I'm not in pain everyday and can actually start riding.  Just took a Rays Milwaukee trip and am starting to hit the bigger stuff.  Can't wait for summer!

I'm in the same boat as you with Humira. Stoked that you got the help you need!

Sweet wheels. What's the rear being laced to?

I think I was talking to you on BMX-F earlier, If you're the same guy from fortytwobikes.

Same guy.

The rear is being laced to my current hub, KHE Greyhound flat (hopefully I get around to raw and polish it before I lace it up!

Got my new rims (G-sport birdcage) and spokes (USA made Ti) and build up my new front wheel (to a stripped and polished Cult front hub).

Took photos to make a how to when I have the time!

Put my brakes back on, I've always loved brakes but I pull that damn lever so hard I got troubles with my arm so I have been brakeless for 6 months! So much fun to have a brake again!

There are no springs in the pivots, you just bolt them on with one bolt per arm with no spring balancing, then the spring is here:-

This is pretty interesting! I've always used my springs to get my pads to grab the rim at the exact same time, I guess that is not possible with this setup? Also, is there a way to adjust the tension? Sorry if this has been answered or shown in pics somewhere else (I didn't look into it, sorry)!
