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

[master]

Solved the chainline issue on my 26". I had to rig a 2mm spacer to push the crankarm away from the chainguide. It's ghetto but it works.

Sputnic Stratocaster v2a, bought it for 50$ almost exactly 3 years ago. She served me well, hoping to have her welded then a gusset put over the crack. As for how it happened im clueless, heard some creaking to find that as the culprit.

[Austin Tasseltine]

yeah good job you spotted it, looks like its very close to breaking completely

[BabyJesus[NJ]]

yeah about 1/4 of the tube is holding it together, thank god it didnt break or else my hope of just rewelding it might be toast, love this frame. id hate to see it ruined.

Finally finished this. A throw back to 1996.


Starting working on this. Removed about 30 random stickers and starting marking all of the dents that will need repaired.


Also finished building up my wife's new frame. Thanks to Blue Streak for the great deal on the 125R cruiser frame!

i laced up a chrome gsport ribcage rim with new spokes. i also installed new hub bearings along with a gdh cromo axle and a shim pack. the last time i replaced my driver i didn't know i had to push the pawls inward as i was tightening the cone nuts so it slightly damaged each of the spots where the springs and pawls go. i cleaned that up though with some light sanding and bent each spring inward a tiny bit to make installation easier. it ended up a little bit quieter too, but it still has solid engagement. i switched from the stock old style 114mm profile axle to the new 110mm in hopes of getting my s&m cymbal hubguard to fit properly. i can't wait for winter to give me a break so i can try it all out.

Actually rode it today thanks to the unusually warm winter we've been having.

I built my first wheel today. Pretty excited! GSport Marmoset, USA brand spokes, Hoffman Generator. My buddy is going to check it for me at the shop, and as long as its good it's getting trued and shredded!

[bluebmx]

Today nothing, but yesterday I put my old first generation Fit ED back together and put on my new Ratchet/big baller wheel with the new S&M steel guard.

[GUMP_]

Got my new shadow powerbites, swapped back to lhd, swapped back to jcpc's, trying out some burns grips, inverted mds, new pair of teal wall faf's 2.25's and still managed to put the rear on backwards after reinstalling it twice so it matches the wife's bike

[pshep138]

Put my new FAF white wall 2.3" on my new front wheel, looked at my incomplete bike, looked outside to see nearly 60 degrees at the end of January, and cried a little.

[brian itzaina]

Destickered my bike, painted my frame black and raised my seat.

[madsf80]

Took it apart, getting frame ready for sandblasting.
