Looked it up, it seems like they made a new version and that one sucks. Damn.

Put it back together, finally.

I bought some recently, did a little test and it wasn't as good as stuff I used a couple of years ago. Will let you know after the weekend

Snapped a chain, bent my sprocket, and broke the bearings in my freecoaster. cool.

I finally got around to installing the odyssey female axle on a joytech hub I have had since 2008. Works perfectly and it is still as smooth rolling as an elite.

^Are elites known for smooth rolling? I wasn't aware of that, lol.

Installed a driver shim on the rear Profile hub on my girlfriend's bike and got it put back together.

Wiped the dust off of it.
Fuck winter

Amen to that

Going to pick up a Tune Mig70 and Mag170 hubset for a new wheelbuild I'm working on during the cold months to take the bike below the 13lb mark and ever so close to 12lbs.

^^That is crazy light!

My Trek is not much lighter than my bmx bike. It was only about a 2 pound difference on the shop scale. I wish I could dump some money into to shave off a few pounds.

Took apart my spare bike apart because I'm trading frames. My bike hasn't been touched in a week. Fuck winter.

mrjimyjohn · « **Reply #2803 on:** February 06, 2013, 06:02:33 PM »

Got some work done on those bolts!

Haven't ridden it in months. Somehow, a province with the population over 3.6 million, only has 2 indoor skateparks. both are a 2 hours drive away. One isn't heated (last week it was -40*celsius, fuck that), and the other is inside a bike shop. Such fucking bullshit.

Sorry, I get a little riled up when I think about how much I miss my bike.
