I quite liked seeing what people were up to in the April/May one. (viewtopic.php?f=1&t=347303)
The faffy bike stuff you wouldn't normally mention.
So what you been up to or plan to do ?
I rebuilt my Green Kona, ('97 Explosif)
I say rebuild, as in put it back together and started riding it. Road it found the bolt holding the cable guide was not there, forgot again for the next ride, added the bolt and to be honest the gears are not much better at the back.
Time for a cable cleanup and change the ageing STX/XT hybrid rear mech to something less wobbly. But I'll need to reclaim the Ti bolts and keep it for spares for future STX modding.
Also replaced the seized RaceFace Ti signature ISIS bottom bracket, due a bearing change, and fitted an FSA Platinum Quad Pro whatsits, which then needed a few front mech tweaks mid ride as it has a fixed chainline and the RaceFace didn't.
The weight increase is terrible though :facepalm:
