Today I bought, or it got delivered, or I fitted...
Midschoolfool:
Oh and toblerone, YGPM dude.
Midschoolfool:
Ordered. Build should hopefully begin next week.
Midschoolfool:
Bolts.
Couple of Bone Deth shirts on sale for 11 quid a pop.
given I have shrunk over 5.5 stone.
I then had a problem. It is pretty much time to ride, and when I rebuilt the orange screamer last summer (and then didn't ride it because I was para about Covid)
I replaced a good chunk of the heavy shit for very light shit. I also replaced the seat clamp a bit later (it was lost in the post so I had to wait for a second) but didn't get pics of that.
Like everything else I replaced it weighs about F all. Which is good. Problem was I ran short on cash toward the end, and I hated the white chain so I got a cheap Shimano one. The problem with that was it is super narrow (which wasn't a problem as it is quite light) BUT when I used a split link there was a lot of play in it. So I added another link spacer and it still had a small bit of play.
This makes me paranoid. Like, to the f-ing extreme, given the worst crash I ever had (and had to have three subsequent surgeries on my elbow) was caused by a snapping chain standing up going full pelt. As such I haven't even ridden Mk4 "I now weigh about the same as a strand of spaghetti".
But the chain was a problem. So, the other day I went hunting for the lightest chain known to man. And I found it too ! for a hundred and twenty quid :LolLolLolLol: But you lot know me I am a tight c**t. The 120 sovs one was in orange and black (D-ROOL) but yeah 120 quid. So when this one came up on sale for 45 I was sold.
Now yeah look I know it is red and black. Thing is? so are the pads that are now on it, and tbh? they look kinda good. I also like how utterly f-ing evil it looks.
So I bagged it.
Midschoolfool:
FFS I knew I had newer photos.
I got the decals off Joffy. My fave, the drippy !
But yeah, think that and a black seat clamp :LolLolLolLol:
