that sounds awesome, we should ride in a few days and check that out. my goal tomorrow is to strip my fork and crank arms. then by the weekend i'll try to get the frame prepped for spraying. then it's time for 4 pegs, a functioning hubguard, and better brake setup. linear cables and i do not get along. i think it's just my superhuman kung fu grip, since i almost broke the housing apart with the first pull of the lever.

It's pretty sick I'll snap some pics of it tomorrow of its not shitty out.

cleaned up the brakes and went to a skate park. I was the only one there and like my typical self I don't pace myself when I ride alone. I was beat after about 2 hours.

Lubed chain, adjusted brakes, and pumped up tires. Ready to ride once it gets warmer.

put a 27t on just so my axle wouldn't be hanging out the back of my dropouts or chain destroyingly slammed. Dropouts are too small these days.

Stripped the black off my frame and sprocket. Looks a hell of a lot better.

About a half hour into riding tonight my bike started feeling real shit and then I realized my bars moved back. Moved 'em forward and rode some more.

saturday...built a new front wheel
sunday...trued and tensioned it
today...rode better than i have in a long time. stoked! except for the first attempt at the half pipe i made i low sided because of the brand new front tire. feels good man.

not having a $5 front wheel that wobbles so much it hits your forks is amazing!

Built up half a new one. Chrome Fit wifi, Cult forks, Bsd fat seat, and a primo mix laced to army green rollcage.
