But i'm sick of the worn out rim on the front of my bike, so i'm probably painting it white tonight.
Wish me luck
*painting mishap.

I'm ordering an epoxy paint at work tommorow, it should look like it's powdercoated when i'm done if everything works out.

I sharpie'd my back wheel, the spokes took ages. It doesn't even look that good either... oh well, it's a bike not a wall decoration.

It didn't take me too long. My spokes were allready white because i sprayed them awhile back, and then my sister colored some of them on one side like blue, green, purple and yellow, haha.
I just colored the rim green and it didn't take to long...

Two more coats tommorow plus clear coat, it's not as white as it in the photo's. The flash made it brighter.

I took the pegs off for winter, it's nice having a really light bike without them....
I need plegs.

I need plegs.
I'm actually considering getting those. And i like the wheel!

Cool. I think it might look better with a black hub, though.

Agreed

It would, but it's not worth unlacing the wheel to do that.

I want plegs... and I agree with the whole color of the hub thing.

I'll have to invest in some, only problem is, i'll have to wait longer than you guys before they're out. At least i'll know if there's any problems with them

I'll probably get them as soon as they come out- one way or another. I just might not be riding them... but I'll have them.
