PaRtZ Posted June 4, 2005 Report Share Posted June 4, 2005 (edited) what time is it? 9:30.... ive been working 9 hours putting together my new monty xlite (second hand from caleb, nice one d00d) why has it taken me so long? Well first of all I had to build this sexy beast Hehe anyway i put this in the frame and "oh sh*t its off centre" yeah it was rubbing against the pads so i had to re-true it more the the left and yay it was true and in centre. so i put all of it together. then noticed i didn't have enough headset stackers.....balls...."ah well ill just tighten it for now".... put the tyres on and pumped them up, got outside for the test ride front tyre was flat..... "hmmm could swear i pumped it up before" so now ive got a puncture in the front, and now top cap on my stem. Whatever keep riding, start getting on the back wheel and "clank clank clank" CHAINS GONE LOOSE!! grrrr i have no tensioners for 10mm axle So the point of this topic is to show you my new ride, my new wheel and for me to vent my tired frustration. Sorry ill post better picture tomorrow Edited June 4, 2005 by PaRtZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Drewery Posted June 5, 2005 Report Share Posted June 5, 2005 Looks sweet, that blue wheel is lush! I would get a new rear tyre though as my sticky fingers slipped all over the place when it got even slightly damp :- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
