If you want you must only ask

 

Shipping beer?

I wouldn't trust myself to mail liquids

Send me some and let me know how much I owe ya!

I haven't even tried the V2K but only heard about how good it was from the guys at Bevmo when I went looking.

That's how I ended up with Revision.

 

No that's against postal guidelines. I would consider shipping cleaning supplies though

 

If you're gunna chop a minivan, this is the only acceptable way

 

Dont like the top gear special

 

The only acceptable way to chop a van is into piece and sold to a scrap yard

 

Hit all the wheels with one last coat and had this one run on me while spraying, among hair and shit landing on it. Guess I'll sand this one back and redo it, least the other three are finally gtg

Fuckin heat in az makes anything near impossible to do

 

Best I can do is $3.50




But yea. When the market crashes. The whole economy is going to take a MASSIVE down turn. What with inflation and all that. Nows the time for assets. Not money.

 

Can already see the patch I tried fixing, not satisfied with it

 

Just checked mine and they are all too small.

 

Thanks for checking.

 

Check out Onyx hubs. They use a sprag clutch that gives silent infinite/instant engagement. Pricey and a bit heavy... but there's something magical about hearing nothing but the sound of your tires as you ride. A buddy of mine has one, and I hope to use one on my next wheel build: https://onyxrp.com/product-category/mtb-hubs/

Box Components has been teasing a similar hub based on a different mechanism, but it's not available yet: https://www.stealthhubs.com

I've got a DT 350. It's a solid hub, even without upgrading. I prefer a quieter hub and it's very quiet in the 18T configuration. I love the simplicity and serviceability of DT hubs.

 

Yeah i blew up the generic hub that was on my bike. So my bike shop got me a 350 to put in. Wanted something more service friendly and strong but not breaking the bank, as my bike is nice but not super high end nice. 350 seem to fit the bill perfectly

 

Gonna be like the housing market crash that crippled the economy in 2008, except this time it will be the Used Toyota Financial Crisis of 2022

 

I'll try to remember to check tomorrow, forgot I had a hockey game tonight and had to run over to the rink just now

 

I saw that pic earlier... DT350 is a great upgrade choice. Cartridge bearings will be easy to replace if you manage to blow one again.

I dig the Electric Queen, too. I've got a frame in the purple/green splatter colorway hanging in my garage. I cannibalized it to build up a full suspension bike, but I miss the hardtail. I'll probably rebuild it soon. Or maybe get an Esker Hayduke...

 

Thanks, I hated being late for a game. I'd rather be an hour early then 2 minutes late.

 

LOL i blew up the factory giant hub on this bike when i got it though after 10 years it was probably on its way out. REI happened to have a wheel and hub in their junk pile and hooked me up

 

That is a nice color scheme.


Do you have any thoughts on the REI or Polygon hard tail bikes? Looking at sub 1k there isn't a lot that isn't backordered into oblivion
