Right, big changes this year. Am thinning the herd.

Thought about what bikes I wanted to strip, was quite easy really. The 06 Quadangle is being stripped, keeping F&F. The F-IT I built last year is also going. Well, not going, but being stripped. Am going to use the best parts from both to build the piggy.

Just one thing, neither has a decent stem on.



Grabbed that for thirty quid in the sales on CR.

Midschoolfool:
Got a nice set of wheels. Not top drawer, but close. They were on my Ruben before I stripped it.



Just one issue. When I bought the Gusset Cassette Tape hub for my Morales it did not come with a sprocket or lock ring. So I stole them from that wheel set lol. The Y22 are not sealed, but other than that? they are a nice wheel set. So I needed to get that sorted.





OK that's the wheel set. The next issues were small. I am stripping this.



I want the seat, crank disc, bash guard, tyres, tubes, bars, BB and cables. Problem is the pedals on there don't have any pins in. So they are for show more than anything. OK, so I got a wicked set of pedals on my Kink that are perfect.



But I don't like the idea of robbing the Kink, as if I want to ride that is my rider.



Will go perfect. The Kink has trans red grips and dust caps. So I can pinch those Primo without feeling bad.

There is just one more tiny issue. The bash guard rides too close to the sprocket under it on the FIT. So much so it catches the chain. The bolts are also a bit shagged, so.





Got a NOS SNAFU mobeus in red and some brake levers that are so rare I have never seen another set.

Midschoolfool:
Wow.

I've bought tons of gear from "Ride the Earth" on ebay now. last lot was two left crank arms and a spindle. Cost me ?60, was easy enough to buy two cheap sets of pedals and make it work.

Today I got these for ?18 each, proper LR





And this.



I bought the V1 solid axle again because getting the bolts for it is piss. Any umbrella bolt will do.

All I need now is a BB. Hoping that cheap AF Social one is still on the bay.....

Midschoolfool:
Wow what a terminal twat I only just realised the arms are different lengths  :LolLolLolLol:

Good thing I only have to ride it once hahaha.

Oh yeah ordered a BB too.
