Haha I broke 2 tire levers yesterday putting my damn refuse/resist tire on! Ridiculous. Hate that stupid tire



I didn't mention the 3 dollars I paid for 2 "Schwinn" tire levers that just bent. Took those back today, got my money back. Spent 12 dollars on 2 tubes and 1.88 for a pack of patches.

GOT THAT FUCKING TIRE ON WITH JUST MY THUMBS THIS TIME!!!!! Beast ninjas

Gonna have to take my foot pump to work and beef up the frame.

Still didn't ride even after fixing a wheel. Just got high, drank guinness, weed nap, BBQ, now full.

I finally fixed my drops on the Standard, filled them in a little then filed down with a HAND file. The only way I could do it, took forever ha

Mounted them (and my room mate's) on the wall.

i bombed a hill, and at the bottom had to hit the brakes hard at a busy stoplight. my brakes goosed and the vibration was so bad that the brake pad came loose and got lodged in the spokes of my rear wheel. it was too jammed to roll, so i started walking it up a slightly mellower street up that same hill a couple blocks away. about halfway up a car rolled by my slowly and yelled OOH IT SUCKS TO BE YOU RIGHT NOW! HA HA HA! before i could yell anything back, they stopped in the middle of the street and put it in park and 2 doors opened up. thinking i was about to get jumped or bikejacked i threw my bike into the bushes behind me, ripped out a loose fat chunk of asphalt from a pothole in front of me and reached for my knife. i had no escape on this long stretch of road with a bike that wouldn't roll and i figured i was gonna have to fight. i yelled YOU WANT MY BIKE, FUCKING TRY TO TAKE IT THEN! and the doors slammed and they sped off around a corner. then i kicked the shit out of my brake until the pad loosened and then booked it home down side streets and alleys.

then i got home, smoked a bowl to feel less murderous and got out everything i need to set up a different pair of brakes since these the fly brake arms i'm running keep slipping with the brake pad fully tightened down. plus the pads were toed in so that the top of the pad had about 2mm of space when the bottom of the pad hit the rim and they still chattered and vibrated loose. i haven't checked my spokes, but i bet i'm gonna need to true the rim where the pad snagged. i figure i'll put my evo2 on, then at least i'll have a functioning brake that won't lock up my rear wheel the same way 2 times in a week leaving me an easy target for grimy ass scumfuck bike thieves.

Idiot moment right off the bat today.
I woke up this morning and headed out the door to go take some measurements for the new bike shop we're starting and see that I've left my new wheel leaning against my truck tire all night right next to the sidewalk.

I rode BattleGround/Vancouver yesterday on my trails/DJ/bike, I didn't want to run the knobby Aitken that was on it in the park so I grabbed the wheel I laced up the other day that had an Aitken street tire on it and swapped them out when I got to BG park.

When I got home, I took the wheel out of my turck, set it down and unloaded the rest of my gear. I was tired, and fell asleep early and clearly forgot the wheel outside. Luckily no one in my neighbor hood decided they needed a brand new Marmoset laced to an Envy front rim with DT Swiss double butted spokes. It sat outside for 14hours, plain as day, and easy grab. Luckily, all my neighbors are old folk who don't have a clue about bike gear and theft is extremely rare.

I'm headed back down to the shop to take shipment of our counters/displays now then it's back home to build up my T1 Ruben!

I'd rather put primo walls on Alex triple walls in the snow that put on or take off that fucking tire again.


Try a putting 1.85 Primo Taj tyre on an Alex Supra E..

Better yet, try to take it off with anything other than a hack saw.

If you still have a 1.85" primi Taj tire, I will buy.  Don't even care the condition.

I'm currently looking at it wondering if its time to put the coaster/fronties back on..

Then I'm riding the park with it regardless of the outcome.
