A dream of mine. Not a BMX, but has some BMX parts
Midschoolfool:
Decided not to use shit vinyl on the wheels. I stuck to HED colours, IE white. I had a huge length of genuine 3M left and it's the best.
I have now cut and weeded the huge edge ones. Just the HED 3 ones left to do. Will give it another day or two to harden before I fit them, though.
Midschoolfool:
I need to cut and polish it. However, last time I sanded on clear I had to wash the tyre 5 times. Being tubular it is a dildo to change, and will cost me a tenner in tub tape. The tyre only has about 10-15 miles on and will be replaced with a 28mm tyre. Problem is they are 120 nicker and I want to at least F it up somewhat before I change it. For now? I would say it is a 100 percent improvement over the before.
Totally different colours under LED lighting.
Midschoolfool:
I was so stoked with that I then celebrated by buying this :LolLolLolLol:
Next post we will be talking about a cheap tracker.
Midschoolfool:
Right. This is a superb little trick I worked out over the past few weeks when I had down time to think.
Now obviously you need to be an Iphone user for this, but a cheap Iphone is well worth getting just to use this.
Step one? buy one of these for about 25 quid on Amazon. Ignore the plastic ones, get the CNC one.
Then you buy an Air Tag for 35 notes or so. Now beware, they have a speaker in and will beep when you are tracking them. They never used to do that, but stalkers were sticking them to cars etc and the drivers had no idea. However, if you go on Youtube you can find out how to very easily remove said speaker. And then you have a silent ninja device you can track if some clunt touches your bike.
As I type this I just paid 21 pounds for that top cap.
Midschoolfool:
OK so things arrived. Paul Melvin.
And then my leather frame pad.
And my new wheel.
Ooo a goody box what's in there?
Skewer, tools, carbon rim pads (DT Swiss) and a keyring. Noice :LolLolLolLol:
And spare spokes obs. And then the main event. "wantit"
I have ordered a wheel bag. I didn't know Alex made them in my colours :LolLolLolLol:
