Swapped the Froggleg’s to Tektro CR720’s with new thin line salmon Kool Stops on the CX bike. Just quickly did the front, but it made such a difference, especially in the wet this afternoon. Gonna re-cable the whole bike (gears and brakes) and put the back brake on when I get back from Melbourne.
I have to admit it, Blakey was right… Frogglegs are shit, even with Kool Stops.
sleep on the bike? you probably could, you’d be in a similar position… #lel
but seriously this is boss. and fuck that questionable ridability, I don’t see people questioning the Moser bikes, these were made for a purpose and they nailed it.
bullhorns or GTFO.
Sleep on my decisions of practicality ha ha
Ordered RB-009’s and Cloth tape this morning! Too bad I couldn’t find any fucking local suppliers of the bars so now will need to wait for slow as fuck US shipping. >:(
Watch this space. Will hopefully have the new rear built for when they arrive.
Started LHT build. Prolly not going to roll with so much upstem. Or the RL340 leverls.
Got some R200s in the parts bin - much more Campy shaped.
Noticed some delamination occuring in the fork. Used a liberal amount of PVA glue and some clamps and it should be good for a few more rides to the park.
delamination? must be descending some big hills.
Polished second gen. Golden Arrow cranks on grinder, mirror az. Made a rip-off Kumo Keith bottle opener/keyring from my cracked Ksyrium.
Miss’s rig mid rebuild for Lols
Are those canti studs?!
Yeah, it’s a pomp
Quick hit of autosol this morning to check the work, needs a little more before it’s really done (just NDS crank, DS not done yet)
lol
ftfy
he he
Put a new chain on the Primate.
Heads up: Ultegra chains are very cheap on wiggle at the moment.
Boxed up four of them for the move,
Then pulled the cranks out of the roadie for a service then pulled down the wheels for their service.
All back together and clean.
Slapped on the Open Corsas and gave the bike a little tweak before Baw Baw tomorrow. First decent ride on the new bike so am pretty psyched to see how it goes.
… Just kidding!
Such a beaut, that one.
so diggin that green andy! noice mate! force 11s?
new shoes for the roadie
Taught my 3 year old how to lube and clean the chain.
I’m keeping an eye out for a balance bike for her for Christmas because she really needs to upgrade from the tricycle
