i have a rideable stock bike. i'm loving it, no troubles swapping from a mod, much more comfortable and feels better on the rear wheel. rear brake leaves a lot to be desired, magura red pads with extra backings sc rewed on because they wouldn't reach the rim. cranks will soon be middleburns, how soon depends on how long my hussefelts last me, i'm assuming not too long.
i will chuck some pictures up on saturday when i have my camera i guess.
P.S. hope hub arrived today so as soon as the echo rims come in i'll have my own rear wheel.
also planning on building up a fixie commuter in the next couple of weeks, meaning the hussefelts may outlast me.
anyone keen for a weekend ride, early sunday at hawker? before 12 because i start work at 12.

:rofl: a fixie commuter indeed. That seriously made me laugh very hard. Andre and I are going to have a "beater days" expo of beater bikes. Beer, maybe some polo, alleycat sprints, all good fun during the summer.
I have some koxx bloxx here if you like. 5mm and 5.5mm of pad respectively.
No ride sunday for me sorry, working sunday 10-3. Afternoon good though.

I think so. Maybe move it to the middle ring? It's good for commuting to the shop but not for rides around the lake. Also, i'm thinking it would be ultra cool to have my bb from my xc bike in it because my one atm is rough as guts. I love you Joel. More beer?
