Today I must rush through chores so I can have enough time to build a wheel.

Today has ban an unusually productive saturday. Started laundry, cleaned the bathroom. Switched laundry, picked up the bedroom and showered. Took laundry out of dryer, hopped on bike and ran a few errands. Now I have to put my laundry away, do the dishes, and hang out until huge raging party tonight. Not bad.

my truck's only got ~150k miles on it. it sits outside all the time so there is a lot of rust on the body panels. seems to run great except when it hits the 30-40mph range sometimes the car reaches some odd frequency that feels like a jackhammer inside my head. it goes away once you get past that range of speeds tho.

Could be many things but would check wheel balance, crap in the rims, or as it happened to me last week... a tyre separation.

Today I tried slamming my stem, but somehow it didn't look cool.
|
I flipped my stem and it looked worse in my opinion, but to hell with the looks.
Happy with the way it rides, which makes me appreciate the look. |
. . . finally found the time to finish this VO/DT Revolution/TB14 wheelset. Snice.

Lookin' sharp colonel! :thumb:
|
Today I rode ~50ish miles with around 4k ft climbed.
Thennnn I bought a muscle roller. |
Wish I could get 'yota PU for 300 here. Rolling chassis is like $800, swear to god.

Ate a meat pie for dinner. #meatpies
|
Tried out clips and straps, not as bad as I thought.... So far *knock on wood*

Today I got the itch to build up a new wheel set by spring for the roadie. Thinking something along the lines of kinlin xr-200's and maybe circus monkey hubs or soemthing similarly light.
Any suggestions guys? I'm pretty set on the kinlins (I'll probably go with wheelsmith spokes) but I don't know of a whole ton of hubs in the same lightweight ballpark as CM's. Colonel, those wheels (and the bike as a whole) look really awesome btw. Nice job. You should think about tossing one of Soma's chromed cogs on the next time you wanna mess with your gearing to up the ante on all the shiny metal goodness! I like mine and they're really reasonably priced. |
