A dream of mine. Not a BMX, but has some BMX parts
Midschoolfool:
*sigh*.
It seems Mr Chong who I bought the grips from is colourblind.
What I ordered.
VS what I got. Cherry on the cake? they are fake and rock hard. :LolLolLolLol: I have to laugh. If I didn't I would effing cry.
So I did what any one else would do when building your dream bike. Put the lil fukka on ignore, as nutting him on the bridge of the nose is not an option (sadly) and stumped up and paid out of the arse for these.
To be honest I was having doubts about them any way, due to the white bits. One can only imagine the filth they would become after merely one ride.
Not that they will fare that much better, but hey at least they have skulls on. :LolLolLolLol:
Midschoolfool:
Yeah I thought so.
Refund got.
Midschoolfool:
Cinelli grips came in today. This is all starting to get a bit stressful tbh. Things being delayed, RM not even bothering to show up and then counterfeit grips. They are fake, btw. Seems there are a lot of them out there atm so be careful.
Going to chill now. Between putting mum's house back into one piece after the decorator came (never again) and chasing crap around it's been a stressful week.
Happy Easter all. Eat plenty of lamb and stay dry.
Midschoolfool:
Right so after a deep breath and a fantastic night's sleep I am now more relaxed. I have decided not to rush, as I will only ever build a bike like this once.
As such I am not happy with the white brake levers. These were 21 quid and I know they are very well received (made by Litepro, CNC)
What was not cheap however, were these.
Like I said, I will never ever do this again so I want to do it once and do it right.
Midschoolfool:
OK amazing more things came today
And so did this thank god.
