You might be a newbie here, but we know who shot this pic.

I finally got rid of my cheap-ass 'cyclone' cranks.

That there would be the work of Highrevs, sir.

Dude, I know that bike!

Yow! A blast from the past. I'm young again, even though those cranks were the flexiest, most pasta-like cranks I ever used.

They look pretty cool though.

Yeah, they're certainly not beefy, but I've had a soft spot for cook since i was a 14-year-old shoprat.

Being light and weak definitely makes them more bearable, too.

Maybe I should ditch the v-brakes on that ride and throw on a nice set of mafac cantis.

I'll take that seatpost off your hands.

Ah yes, the '90's, syncros seat posts, cook bros cranks, looks like nuke proof hubs?, and what are those brakes... Paul's?

I still think that spyder saddle is out of place on that sweet tank of a bike :)

New fork, what is it?

I was at the BMX track a while back and a few people were running old Paul brakes on there rigs.

Nuke proof hubs with Ti-dye spokes even. Those are Avid Tri-Aligns.

My old rig with purple graftons.

who? i don't get it...

that just screams "pedal strike"

looks cool though

You'd be surprised, I haven't caught 'em yet. This build was sort of a joke, though, the keiki is usually much more comfortable like this:

I'm adding brakes to my purple bike:

And yes there is a reason the lever is inverted, Tecktro levers like to hit my knee's and take pieces out, so I'm using a front lever flipped over so the smooth part is on the bottom. I snapped the regular brake cable, this dérailleur cable was all I could find on short notice. I doubt it will hold long and you can bet it will fail at the most inopportune time.

What Cranks are those?

Decade-old kona OEM cranks. I bet if I fight through the grime, they'll probably be SR Sakae of some sort.

My Beater MTB. Its a KHS FXT Comp. I bought it cheap and through on some Sun Rhino Lights. And hit whatever comes my way now. Its aint lite but its tough.

Any reason for running a road brake cable?

Spend less time in Foo and more in Mountain Biking and you'd know.

Heh, it's a dérailleur cable. I snapped the ball off of the other cable I had so I just slid this through the housing.
