a mid-long range, semi-auto snipe rifle would be awesome.

yeah but you should be allowed to own one and keep it at your house, its the 2nd ammendment.

back when it was made, when the threat of someone breaking in or taking over your land was imminent.

the second ammendment is bullshit in today's society.

instead, I'd support profiling when it comes to selling weapons. I realize you get a background check, but if the person looks like they should not own a gun, it should be perfectly legal for the shop to tell them to eff-o.

guns are cool though, if your not a retard then little can go wrong, but its the fact that people think they are safe just because they have the safety on/locked up, etc. For gun death stats, most are just people trying to get what they want, very rarely is a child killed because they found daddy's gun.

that said, there are several reasons why I would rather live in the US:

near the top of my list is a Desert Eagle.

Common Questions and former stickies. / Lube, Grease, and Whatnot

« on: January 05, 2007, 01:05:49 AM »

Finish Line is not as good in my opinion. I did my Profile cassette bearings with it, and was not impressed. Seemed awefully thin and did not last.

I would get more if you can. The stuff lasts a long time if you go easy on it. Most people use way too  much grease.

ok, so i looked into some more Phil Wood Grease. I'll probably use it on bearing applications like the headset and in actual bearings... but as for say, bb assembly and bolts and seat post would you suggest the finishline, which i have more of, or the spray-can of tri-flow?

Common Questions and former stickies. / Lube, Grease, and Whatnot

I'm going to be doing a bike rebuild soon because I just picked up a new frame and some parts.

I work at a bike/snowboard shop, and lube is the one thing I've never been spot on with.

I have these at my disposal. Where and if at all should I use them and what is the best for each application?:

-Phil Wood Tenacious Oil
-Permatex Anti-Seize Lube
-Permatex Blue Thread Locker
-Tri-Flow Teflon Super Lube (in can) (very little left)
-Finish Line Premium Synthetic Grease (in 4lb bucket)
-Finish Line Dry Teflon Lube (in bottle)
-Finish Line Ti-Prep (small applicator - came with wombolts)
-White Lightning Wax Lube (in bottle)
-White Lightning Clean Streak Metal Prep Cleaner (in can)
-Castrol Chain Lube (in can)
-Kuu Bio-Citron Base Cleaner (in 1l can) (although used as wax remover, I find it is an excellent metal cleaner)

Bike Setup:
-Mid BB
-Regular HeadTube
-Solid Headset
-Nokon Cable
-Wombolts
-Primo E-Brake
-Sealed Solemates
-Race Fork

edit: i've used Phil Wood Grease, and Sheep, I actually picked it up after you "praised" it in the last thread like this, unfortunately I'm all out. Should I get more or is the Finish Line Grease I have so much of at work suffictient?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
