JD™ Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Yea I'm looking at either a double wheeled tensioner or just 2 less links and a spoke tensioner - it's pretty close already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted April 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I'm gonna go with this being the final update here because there's no point dragging it up again now it's fully built. There's still some changes to be made (chuck the front hose through the steerer, get a booster and tensioner) but this is basically 'it' now for the foreseeable future. I'm really happy with it, it's come out just about how I wanted it. It's a shame the hubs didn't end up the same orange as the frame but they're close enough for me, and at least they match. Silly as it is, I think that the saddle really adds to it compared to the old pics... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely nothing to ride round here, so I've just been rolling around this evening and it feels good. I wont know for sure till I get out tomorrow night somewhere a bit better though!

JD™ Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Video is definitely on it's way, I'll probably get a few clips together while I'm learning on it but the plan is to have something decent at the end of summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted April 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 Lookin fresh! When's this thing making it's way up to the ol' smogsville? I nearly phoned you yesterday to see whether you could do an after work ride - how do you fancy the same idea for tomorrow after work? Can't make the next couple of weekends due to extremely unthoughtful people getting married. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
