Today I bought, or it got delivered, or I fitted...
« on: May 14, 2012, 09:55 PM »
Today I bought a rachet spanner, to switch my new forks (MacNeil Blazer with a funny head bolt) & fitted my new Demolition front wheel.

Switched from 14mm to 10, took front brake off & cut loads of weight. ;) Not sure about the colours though... ???

Yeah, I nicked the idea from an arcade geek forum I'm a member on. Just some whimsical chat about impulse buys, what arrived in the post or you fitted today.

 ;)

Today I bought a stumpy 15mm spanner and a frame bag for the L2B ride...
A copy of Rad Rides got delivered and I had a nice little chat about the footie with my Postie as we always do :)
Picked up some OS patches, trading cards and copy of an OM signed SE Flyer from the sorting office (via the US) that was part of a trade deal.
Then I stripped and re-greased a set of MKS peds and fitted them to the Kuwie...again for the L2B ride :)

All good stuff but had to hand over £18 for the customs fee :(
Wish my frame set from Poland would bloody show up.

This import tax crap does me head in!! the other day I ordered a UBrake adapter from DansComp to the tune of $9.95, when It came to the checkout, and with shipping, this turned into $45!!!

God only knows how much this will cost me when I receive it............
