Bullhorns off, risers on. Ourys feel good, no pics beacausefixie.
Rebuilt a set of campy pista hubs for my mexico pista. Bet your dura-ace cones don’t look this shiny.
#racklyf’d it. Am going to have to raise my stem though, small headtube+slammed stem=no rack space.
New RED on BMC, SS’d the dale for commuting duties.
curled my lip at the raleigh on the workstand, and at the vertex leaning against the bench. that’s about it.
oh, i shuffled them all around the other night so i could fit more in.
Tightened the chain, changed the saddle and put 25mm tyres on.
The perfect Warby trail setup.
What brake levers are they?
look like sram rival levers that have had the internals removed
Winner!
Replaced the front derailleur cable on the CX bike after the ferrule on the frame cable guide had cracked and I was losing tension which made the derailleur rub against the chain when I was in the big(ish) ring.
switched wheelsets
did a whipskid
Fixies are back…
Raced it, got dropped.
Thought I felt good, pulled a big turn, got tailed off the back, goodbye.
Classic Lorday move right there.
Final tune then rode it this morn…
Last minute wrenchies on the tandem on Monday, trued and tensioned the front wheel, trued and swapped an axle on the rear then redished and unlocked top gear, unsuccessfully tried to remove the freewheel, unsuccessfully tried to mount a drum brake, tweaked the brakes, clamped on a bottle cage, fitted a rack and totes vintage handlebar bag (thanks sir kev!).
Surprised that there were no mechanicals on the warby trail after all that.
Cleaned up this and rebuilt with solid axles yesterday. Had to re-space this morning but measures good now.
is that your first carbon roadie? how do you rate it amongst the sea of steel youve owned/ridden ?
