Built a set of wheels, spokes are to long/nipples are too short, lots of spoke thread showing. Going to get some 16mm nipples now.

most frustrating thing ever.

Walked my spare up to the gas station to put air in the tires since my electric compressors valve ripped :mad2: and blew the tube up since the spokes were poking through the rim strip...

Went to the park and froze a little then came home and painted my bar ends. Also re-tightened my cranks for the 10000th time this month. Ditching the Ti spindle and going back to chromo. Cranks never came loose until I switched to Ti. :mad2:

^^is everything greased up? have you tried loctite?

I changed out my last pair of primo martinez grips for a set of deluxe shovelhands..

and found out my fly barend is cracked along two of the three grubscrew holes.

Everything is greased up, guess it's a good idea to try loctite before I drop money on a new spindle haha.

put together an old fbm, and then forgot my modern tires are too big for the back end, so i definitely need new tires. i love how my 8.65 aaron ross bars aren't obnoxious huge.
