You’ve probably noticed it’s a bit quiet on here.
What are riding or building? A Quicksilver would be nice

I was a member here a number of years ago but life got in the way and couldn't remember my log in details so I joined up again.
It's great to be back.

New School Park, Street & Dirt / Re: Skate Park Newbie
« Last post by Mikku on October 13, 2025, 10:59 AM »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!
