Turn her over to The Based God.

but srsly. What do you reccomend?

I really don't know, man. Is she younger than you? You're still pretty young yourself. You guys will grow out of it.

I've got two sisters myself - one is eight years younger than me and one is 16 years younger. We all hate each other.

yeah, she's younger than me. I think we both cause problems with each other but whatever. I'm stressed pretty much 24/7 with school and such so I try to ignore her.

Maybe ignoring her isnt the best move. Try hanging out with her a little. There has to be something you two can do. Every one loves cartoons.

Scrod - What is the Holy Grail of FG/SS bikes? Surely this can very well change from year to year, but if there could be only one Holy Grail, what would it be?

I don't have the answer to that because everyone has their own version (which is perfectly alright).

Seriously. One of my sisters went through a lot of rough times growing up that I wasn't even aware of until much later in life and it really bugs me that I wasn't a better big brother to her. I could have/should have protected her like a rabid mother****er on PCP.

Try explaining to your sister that even though you have a lot of differences right now, you're both young and your relationship will matter a lot more in a few years.

Whoa , same situation with me and my younger brothers. I used to fight with my younger brother a lot and we eventually grew out of it. Now he looks up to me a lot.

He's struggling to come out of the closet even though my parents and I know. I have been trying to figure out how to be a better brother and help him feel better, he's only 15. I have taken him to some midnightridazz stuff but I still feel like I'm not there enough

Because you're 18 feet tall.

I'm almost 22 now, so he really views me as an adult instead of his older teen brother

I have a younger brother that is just over a year younger than me. Growing up we used to fight all the time, and he is still a little piece of crap. But we do not really fight any more. Its something that happens when one or both are teens. But there is always something you can do. it may sound really cheesy and inauthintic. But ask her whats up, hows school etc. And if all else fails take her to waffle house.

I don't have to share my love.

I hated that my younger brother would do things that I liked, because "he just wants to copy me!" and I just wanted to have my personal interests and my personal space.

Our relationship improved a great deal after I went to college, because I didn't have to see him every day. It's a lot easier to get along with someone when you don't have to deal with them ALL OF THE TIME, since you can hang out or talk when you want to and not when you don't.

I can't tell you whether it'll be the same for you, but that's just my experience.

I'm a middle child and my younger sister is completely insufferable at times. But if you actually take the time to hang out with your younger sibling and treat them well and show be patient with them it helps out. I had to sit down with my sister and tell her to stop being a ***** to me for no reason and asked her why, and that helped a lot actually. so try that. but don't be rude about it or blame her and judge her. Cuz yeah, big brother role is an important role eventually. sometimes wish mine was more a part of my life.

Scrod,

Is the weird chrome/kilo ST a different dia than the current kilos? I'm always having a hell of a time getting the seatpost in and when I do, it scratches it to hell.

It shouldn't be...but who really knows when it comes to BD stuff?

This is what i had, getting new aftermarket seat post in.. Even it was oiled... Also, there was round mark around original black post from tightening...
I saw the same thing on my wife's Cannondale F5... not anywhere else..

Scrod, I remember you mentioned this once..cant find it - what Bottom Bracket can work with Sugino 75 besides the original pricey one..?

You're using a 26.8 seatpost on those Kilos, right?

I use this with both sets of my 75s and love it.

Yes, it says 26.8 on the seatpost.

Thanks for BB.

My older brother and I get along great, although we usually have one BIG fight every time we see each other. It usually results from both of us being frustrated while working on our bikes and then we take it out one each other. He always wins. But now he has a broken back (flattened bursa from crashing while riding BMX), so we probably won't fight very much anymore, since I would not want to potentially re-injure his condition.

I do not have any brother or sister, but my kids are very big buddies - daugher is 8 and son is almost 3.
"When he talks to me and I'm not listening he gets my had with both his hands and turn it towards him.. At this moment I'm ready to give him everything I have.." she says.
When I drop her at the school he is always saying "My Dasha ..where is my Dasha... I want to love my Dasha.."
On weekend when we not going anywhere they can play together all day long...
Curious how it is going to be in 10-20 years.

what are your thoughts on mounting a freewheel on the fixed side of a hub? Richard (Wabi) and Ben (velomine) both advertise their wheels with that being a selling point, but I basically had a LBS mechanic try to chew my head off for doing it, complaining about the lack of threads, saying I'm going to kill myself, etc

Yup, the post I was using was the stock post from my other Kilo.

I did not have any problems to install freewheel on Wabi. Actually ..not me but my LBS guy .. He did not even blinked... done it in 12 seconds.

Also..I looked at Moto Team Track wheels and it had two fixed cog installed.(soem Vuelta Pro wheels).. I asked out if they change it to freewheel if customer needed and he said "why not"..
