Today I finally got to make the bike stand I want. So glad I didn't cave and buy one.
Sorry if you follow me on social media but I'm quite proud of the out come.

[QUOTE=SpeshulEd;18376805]I wish I could work from home for like half the year and then the other half in the office. After about six months, I tend to get a bit stir crazy no matter what environment I'm in.

Division 1
Fast Folks

Those were the two shops I visited in Austin and enjoyed both.

I will have to check at least one of those folks out!

don't think so. I've been using this rack for the last 6 months without any problem, and I carried 2 bikes on it over 2,000mi this summer. the arm even clicked to "lock in" last night when I placed it over my front wheel. seems like it just came loose and dropped my bike.

Having dated a Brazilian woman, I completely agree.

The Brazilians have no love loss for the oil industry, that's for sure, and I wonder if the Petrobas scandal motivated that video in part. The scope of the scandal is truly breathtaking.

Today I'm tempted to sell my crabon fork and use that money to buy a steel frame/fork so I can throw my Leader away. I wish I could keep the fork but there is no way it will fit on any bike that is my size.

If you had posted this two weeks ago you might have sold it to me before I picked one up for cheap in a cyber Monday sale.

Huffandstuff 12-10-15 12:03 PM

Damn, I'm still decIding if it's a good idea or not. Onna look around CL and see what framesets are available.

johnnytheboy 12-10-15 05:24 PM
