What did you do to your bike today? (v2)

[Admiral Ackbar]

Gonna raw my bars forks frame and spray my wheels black

[DontcallmeKenneth]

Sending my girls aunt some money so she can ship my Albes order back to me.

[ralph wiggum]

Installed my replacement driver and cleaned the gunk off my bike

[weedbix]

Intrikat frame, some old tapered forks I don't recognise

[TCbmx.]

Drilled out one of my 3/8ths T-1 pegs.
Will be going on the Ruben tomorrow.

got my 25t mds and khe collapse chain on today. Dry sprocket on dry chain felt rough, hopefully a little lube will bring it back tot he same level of crankflipability that my old set up had.

Bahahahaha not gonna happen,my collapse was a piece of shit.

I fear I may have the same experience. Lubed it, spun it around, and when i let a crankflip rip it came around, but felt like I had a freecoaster on, like full force to kick a single CF. My buddy is real stoked on the chain and doesnt do that trick, so if it doesnt get better after a few rides I'll sell it to him.

WD40 is a degreaser.  It would have opposite effect.

Yeah, luckily my bike shop employment drilled it into my brain that WD40 should never touch a bike, so I went for the white lightning chain lube option.

Sure thing!

This was before I busted out the buffing wheels, so it's not quite as shiny as it is now, but you can still see some decent shine, especially on the rear triangle.



I was amazed how well that stuff worked, this was taken even before I could coat the entire frame! I went through about 3 pairs of gloves doing it though, haha.



I have it built up in my room right now, but the light outside is less than ideal. I'll get some better pictures tomorrow, maybe I'll post up bike check.

What did you use on your frame? Is that stuff available in Europe/Germany? I need to raw my frame as well.

[Rusty]

Worried about my car getting broken into because I parked down the street from my house with my bike in the back. She's still there

The stuff I used was called "DS Super Remover". Trent recommended it to me, and I think it's only available in Canada, but apparently it's the same stuff as "Nitromors", which you might be able to get your hands on. It looks like this:
