Fixed Pants™ Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Well, it's not been done perfectly, but i did strip it down an vat. Rims aren't perfect either, they need to be sorted, and will be when i get 6 quid for some white (primer), as the rear rim has been sprayed onto a grey primer it's quite a dull fluro pink. Front is just finished badly, but all will be fixed soon!And for the people that had felt my front brake when it was f**ked, it's now sorted, i cleverly put a bearing in the bit the pokey bit pokes, so yeah, it's nice and good.

Fixed Pants™ Posted June 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Hopefully.Need to get the white paint sorted though, and i'll get it all nice and fluro. Temped to buy some fluro pink rims though, if i can get the dorrah, just hope the spokes are the right length for the new rims (if i get them)And bollocks, no spaces in hellfrauds for me, so i'm f**ked for dorrah.

ManxTrialSpaz Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 You've spilt some pink on your bike Might like it when you sort out the paint job on the wheels. Till then, it's in my book of ghetto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed Pants™ Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 (edited) You've spilt some pink on your bike Might like it when you sort out the paint job on the wheels. Till then, it's in my book of ghetto.Yeah, the real wheel is still masked as i don't wanna have to remask the spokes when i get some white primer...Nice one dude, looks well better. Maybe paint the spokes black and strip the slaves and lever too?Thanks Could just spray the lever and slaves black, but i like the raceline yellow, it sticks out and to people that don't know what it is, it just looks good Black spokes would look the shit too, but i dunno, i think it would require me taking the wheel apart, which i f**ked up on when i rebuilt the front wheel...You big gay Nah, pink looks good.Pink does look good Thanks for comments Edited June 29, 2007 by Fat Pants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concussion Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 What's with the rear mech dude? Wheel movement that much of a pain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Pants™ Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 (edited) No tugs/cams and it's a pain in the A to get it to be tensioned, straight and stay there lol. So i just slap it in straight without bothering about the chain and do it up with some mega beans, stays a good un And it's F**KING gay as when i do the bolts up, they move and move the axle in the drop outs, so frustrating.

Fixed Pants™ Posted June 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 Your back wheel can only move so far back because of your rear brake cylinders.Hopefully not true as i'm getting some tugs soon, but i couldn't get the wheel to stay straight and in place, so i put it in straight and don't bother about tension and put the tensioner on.It works well.
