Will try a new host later.
I bought a fire engine red ltd Odyssey lever and a yellow cable for the S&M.
Oh and some end crimps etc.

Forgot to update this thread!  I finally finished the Sunday, picking up a secondhand Odyssey EVO II caliper, which works a treat with their adjustable linear cable and short Monolever. One issue I've had is a noisy chain. I bought a new Izumi chain though nothing fancy, just one of their basic ones, remembering that this was supposed to be a budget build. The chainline looks okay and I can't find any obvious tight spots, though have heard that Izumi chains can be noisy, so I guess that could be it. The only other thing I can think of is that when I was installing the crank, there was a bit of play with the inner spacer in the BB. I thought about adding a spindle spacer inside to get rid of that play but everything tightened up ok, so I left it.  Anyway, whilst I mull over whether to whip off the crank and BB bearings to install another spacer OR just to bite the bullet and buy a better chain, I'm regularly riding the Sunday at the local skate park and am really enjoying it. Despite being heavier than the Quamen, the shorter Sunday is easier to spin and fakie on, plus I no longer need to worry about damaging a rare, prototype frame with my newbie park skills!

No racing to report on but last month I visited Tokyo, so was able to hit up two Velosolutions pump tracks in the space of a week, two times at each one, so that got the blood flowing. Then this past Friday I was able to check out a new BMX track that recently opened in Nagoya City. It's a modern, international-level track built to host the racing at the 2026 Asian Games. As such, it's aimed at riders well beyond my skill set, though I was still able to have some fun riding it despite scaring myself stupid!!  This coming weekend I should be back racing on a more regular (for me) track, namely Oizumi in Osaka. However, it's typhoon season here at the moment, so I'll be keeping an eye on the weather as Sunday approaches. Riders ready, watch the forecast!!

Good question. I noticed when I posted my reply, it was showing over 2000 guests on the site.
Yes ans I deal with about 200/300 applications for new acounts a day. Lots of spammers and bullshido. I think I do well with keeping them out 
Keep up the good work, it’s appreciated. Its a shame some of the genuine guests don’t sign up and post a little, that would help this place out

Black Z mags and all black Comp III’s now fitted. I unearthed some black Formos tech 3 levers, but I’ve had to order some cheap painted steel Lee Chi calipers. They are pretty much what’s on there at the moment, you know the type. I need to find a seat post, freewheel and some black cable outers that I know I have. I’m going for the stealthy look I guess.

Yes it was. Black Pads. I remember burning my fingers with Nitomors removing the black of the rims. Such a shame I snapped the frame
It was stronger stuff back then The paint stripper though, not the frames apparently

Just a quick question..... Is the number of guest users,usually between 1000 and 2500,an accurate one?

Good to hear from you all. its a shame there isnt an easy solution to the image issue but short of the site holding all the images, which probably requires huge amounts of money to throw at storage, i suspect it will only get worse. If the site no longer remains as a resource of info it would need a serious boost in daily numbers to keep it viable. My brother rigged something up to save all the images around the photoshop nonsense and when the site crashed but it was a temporary measure and im not sure it can be implemented fully
