I always enjoy your pics. So the buggered arm doesn't restrict your photography?

You have posted some very nice images.
I don't get out as much. The last were taken walking from subway to doctor's office and back.

Strange indeed! Although I wouldn't tell it to the riders. Looks like a huge gear on that first one, the lady who rides that must be a brute! And the hats on the guys with the gas powered cruisers suggest mob connections. Parking garage is so far beyond what we have here. Wow. The tiny locks you guys use are so cute. They look like they could be cut with fingernail trimmers. Don't you lock your bike to the rack in that garage?

Always look forward to your pics. Your city is very bike freindly.
I haven't ever locked my bike to the rack. Maybe I should. It's funny you mention the cable locks, as mine is one of the thicker models. Many are about 3mm thick and you are right, a fingernail clipper would probably do the trick. Locks are more of a fashion accessory here. lol

G"day here's my bikes past to present the JBC is 8kg hope you like.
Wow, there is definetly nice stuff coming out of Taiwan. Always has been, really. They just seem to be on the cutting edge of everything to do with bikes. Eight kilos (17.6 lbs), and with disc brakes ! Was the JBC frame manufactured as an MTB frame ? That is probably the most exotic "hybrid" build that I have ever come across, except for that Madone conversion with Zipps that is floating around the Net.

Yes talldog it's MTB specific and cant fit big tyres on the 29er wheels thats fine by me though i'm only a road rider.
It a total custom build the frame weigh's 1030grams and 995g without the deralier hanger photos dont do it justice the quality is amazing.
I've seen alot of debate on this site about what a hybrid is it seem's i dont own anything.
I dont own a hybrid, I dont own a road bike, I dont own a mountain bike, I own a highroadmountain bike HEHE sorry please forgive me.
The bike hasn't gone to far away from the trainer this winter so all I have is indoor pics for now
New grips, seat, and smaller 25c tires btw
Put the fun between your legs!
Nice nogrE gripsNew grips, seat, and smaller 25c tires btw
^ they make a world of a difference, no more hand tingle!

But why grips are upside down?
Lol gotcha, well I've been using them for about 2 weeks like that they've felt nice on my hands so I never questioned them being on the wrong side I suppose. I'll switch them up and see how much better it is. Thanks for pointing out my n00bness haha.

Not too familiar with those grips but the inside clamps look right (bolt under handlebar). My uneducated guess is the grip are right side up. The barends are definitely wrong (switch left to right and vice versa). Bolts should be under the handlebar.
apu has two posts, he is more of a noob than you.
Only a noob would make a post in this thread without including a picture.
Sorry for so writing many words in the "Less talk more pics" thread!

Inside clamps
Over 3500 posts and you are still a noob.
I flipped them around since they were upside down and on the wrong handle bars lol.. They feel much nicer now, great improvement. Thanks.
