hey guys , picked up my new bike today, did a few mods before i could ride it , took all the reflectors off , changed the pedals to a set of bmx ones i had, the clip on style ones that came with it were too small for my liking , then i cut the ends of the grips off and put end caps on , took the front brakes off , and put a tektro little black lever on , she goes all good , so smooth , every thing is sealed bearings , the sprockets are a 44tooth front and 16tooth rear so similar to a bmx gearing its nice to ride on a larger bike with that gearing .. any ways i got creative and took a few pics of it ..




haha then me

Haha sweet.

How do you find it on hills and stuff? Once you get up speed, are your legs moving too fast to get anywhere? When you're going slow, how hard is it to get up and going?

yeah its ok for hills u just stand up and get a few good pedals in and ur on your way , same goes for starting up , i haven't flipped the hub ove rto the fixed gear yet , i like to coast down hills with out having to pedal

You guys should watch the movie called "Pirates" made in 1995. It's a full on porn movie, with a hell storyline, and action scenes an ****. Me the missus and another couple just watched it, hilarious.

Cheers,

What do you mean about the hub? Sorry I'm not yet bike-savy...

[Morgan]

Oooh just reading up on it all now. So you can change between freewheel and fixed?

Getting pretty keen to get something like this!

I got my last bike for my 10th birthday and it was awesome. 18sp Raleigh mountain bike. I added a headlight, tail light, and a speedo.

Much too small for me now though and I'm heaps keen to get back riding.

Note to self: Need roof rack bike holders

Out of interest, has anyone been through an earthquake? This looks scary as all hell!

Real time reactions to the quake.

[RX25SE]

Not so much an earthquake but we've had a couple of tremmors here.

The last one about 2 years ago felt like someone had shook the ground like you would shake a rug.
What freaked me the most was I could hear it coming.

[Morgan]

Hahaha that was a crop job I did of one of Niks car photos...

[CodeBurn3r]

yeah i remember that Jase, i was sleeping on the couch, was like WTF, didn't really do much, just a bit of a rumble and some putty from the cornering on the roof fell out. (old **** house) i only realised next morning that i wasn't dreaming when it was on the news lol
