Title: Bike Updates - Slingshot and Fetish Sin 24
Post by: stidds on March 29, 2009, 07:41 PM

I have been updating some of my rides and thought I would share the pictures.

Firstly - For a while I haven't been happy with my Slingshot, I wanted to update the wheels and thanks to the help of Mr Gashead and the loan of his Skyways, I decided that I needed my own set of Skyways to grace the bike.  Thanks to Nick I realised that I needed alloy hubbed Tuffs, also thanks to Sam (Meticus) I have that set.  I have also added a Terry Cable brake cable and Skyway Pro Pads.


Secondly - My cruiser needed an update also, this time it was to change the hubs, brakes and chainring.  Some of you may remember that I was running a rear disc on the bike, well I have changed that to an Odyssey A-Brake and the hubs have been changed to red anodised instead of polished.  Also the chainring was changed and will probably be changed again soon as I have a nice Snap chainring that would look funky on it.

On to the pictures...
