What did you do to your bike today? (v2)
LuckyLuke:
This is my bike. I rebuilt the rear hub today.
dude...:
trans orange is such a nice finish
_tom_:
Yeah that colour is fucking awesome.
I finally got round to doing a job I've been putting off for absolutely ages (probably almost a year now). Changed my broken rear brake/STI lever on my road bike, put an Ultegra front mech on and set it up then changed the bar tape. Surprisingly all went without any problems at all apart from the gear cable being fiddly as fuck to get through the lever. It's a christmas miracle! The bar tape is a bit messy though so I'll re-wrap it when I get some more electrical tape. Doesn't look too bad for my first attempt ever.

Hank Chinaski:
Went and rode some trails/jumps for the first time on my mountain bike. I've never been any good in the air, even on my bmx, but I was doing ok for the first time. Some hucker was there and was having me follow him over some of the smaller jumps. Was going fast and hit a small double, thought I was going to case so I sucked the bike up, ended up manualing down the landing and being thrown off sideways. Landed smack on my tailbone and whipped my head backwards onto the hard packed trail, heard my helmet smack. So glad I had one on. My first real crash on the mtb. Two things I'm taking away, always wear a helmet and I still have no fucking bike control in the air at all.
