Went in the shed and didn't even make sure it was still there. I assume it is, would suck if not.

Fitted the Profile Acoustic stem to my bike and retired my Colony stem after about 5 years on my bikes. Trying G's shorter stem forward bars theory. Will see how it feels when my ankle heals, I rolled the shit out of it the other day.

Holy fuck at that ankle. I did the same thing last month, and mine is still a little swollen.

Rolled ankles are the worst. I seem to do mine on a regular enough a basis that they're just loosened up now and are fine after a day though.

Hahaha I have a friend who brings me his rear wheel looking like that once a week for me to fix it.

Dude needs a 48h

macandcheese · « **Reply #2061 on:** October 13, 2012, 09:07:55 AM »

yea, 48h would be nice. i can't find a decent 48h hub though.

The coaster wheel I ordered is 48h

Stoked.

Built a wheel for the first time in my ten+ years of riding.
I don't know why it seemed so intimidating. Used the G-Sport guide and it was tight and straight in less than an hour.

I put on an old pair of ODIs and remembered how much I hate them, how come cufflinks are always out of stock?

I'm selling a 48h rear wheel...

Shipping to Estonia would probably be ridiculous though.

NICE AND STRAIGHT MATE!

Stared at it and couldn't find anything to tinker with other than a Ti bolt for the Pivotal set-up.

Wroked on the road bike a little instead. New tube, adjusted some stuff since I finally have about 100 miles on it.

Looking forward to Monday. New job, will be off work by 5 daily, so I should be able to ride all of the bikes a LOT more.

Stoked.

Did a raw/gun blue fade finish on my frame. Turned out ok, not as nice as it did on my solid frame, or T1 SFA. Wondering if different tubing and their alloys react different too the bluing.
