Put a new tube and tire on my single speed, and ordered some spokes and a tire for my BMX.

Did you decide whether to DT or not to DT?

Went with the USA brand. Maybe if i ever re build my front I'll go DT, cause it seems to take more abuse.

Put on those steel things that make sparks then it rained so I made a drink and watch some riding shit.

Replaced my bald rear 2.0 Ruben with a 2.1 FAF-K that I got from sketchphoto. The Fit tire is actually smaller than the Ruben, which is a good thing, because my clearances are pretty slim right now.

Deanodized the blue of my solid sprocket. Tried "aluminum black" from birchwood casey (like gun bluing for alum). Looks ok, it probably would of looked better getting 2 jars then putting the sprocket into soak. rather than wiping it on like you do with bluing.
fixed a flat , and installed an S&M steel hubguard on my other bike

Got a new one!

50 bones at a garage sale with a huge tub of red waterproof/ wheel bearing grease.

Rear wheel is at the lbs getting trued so no complete pics for now

Its fast and so pristine,will smoke the fuck out of a bmx.I've wanted one of these for a while to commute and push my limits.

Anyone knows where the year would be on it?

If that Mosh hub uses the same axle/hardware as a sealed Suzue/og Vandero it should fit.

Removed my 30-10 and went back 28-9 in anticipation of my new wheels.............. expensive drivers suck.

Sent my backwheel off with my buddy for a good trueing and took my cranks off to repaint them. Will fire that off tonight in my parents basement.

Also ordered some new tires as my sidewalls are getting mighty thin
