Bah  :LolLolLolLol:



This was really cool. Never bought folding tyres before.



There's an issue. See if you can spot it.



Yup, the pump head doesn't fit. So I can't inflate them  :LolLolLolLol:

They do, however, look just as ridiculous as I had hoped.



More bloody money  :LolLolLolLol:

Midschoolfool:
Yo baby can I get another lap dance?





Joy of all joys.

Midschoolfool:
Right, just dressed the frame. Removed all of the rust from the races, frame etc. Did a lot of filing with the belt file, sorted the drops (bad cutting by the machine) and etc.

Have put some JB on. Hopefully it's enough, due to the at least 24 hour hardening time. That said the spokes *should* be here tomorrow for the front wheel, so I can get on with that whilst the (possible) second application dries.

Midschoolfool:
BTW this is what I mean by dress the frame. Whatever cut the drops (lazer? plasma? IDK) didn't do a very nice job. No one even bothered to file them or anything either.



I thought it was just damage but it's not. It's simply where no one cleaned them up after they were cut, and just welded them straight on. I will show it cleaned up later.

Midschoolfool:





Dressing done, no rust. Just a light sanding needed now (well after I file down all of the filler lol)



I also want to give a shout out to the frame for being the most annoying frame EVER to work on. It won't sit fooking still  :LolLolLolLol: Only just had this idea FFS.
