:tumbleweed:afternoon campers...off to the bike shop in a bit to pick up the wheel...that's french for "probably not getting much trimming done today"...i will probably get the rest of the big tote pre-trimmed,but i doubt any will get finish manicured...
garden chores today,should be a fairly easy day of that...

New fork. Much smoother than the old fork. Lots of leaves on the trail making it kinda slow today. Sure beats being in the house though.

what kind of pedals are those? good looking rig:good:

i just got my wheel back yesterday...and a new thompson seatpost for the Mone'...the one bad thing about these hub rebuilds is i got extra fancy hub grease,and now my I9 torch hubs are nearly silent...how are the peasants going to know i'm coming?:biggrin:

:tumbleweed:mornin campers...down to the last two bins of buds to be manicured...of course it's the two largest lots that need to be done...the glue i'm betting i will end up hashing a lot of the smaller stuff,the rozay looks to be an easy trim and the nugs are rock hard so i'll squeeze those grams a bit harder...no garden chores today and the house is pretty well stocked up so i don't need to leave...time to trim the donuts!

Crank brothers peddles. I also have crank brothers shoes so the pegs line up perfect with the grip. Super fun to ride. But you probably knew that. And after getting used to this onyx hub I don't think I will be able to tolerate stock hubs ever again. Infinite engagement feels so right.

My wife asked what I paid for it today again and I actually have her an honest not smart ass answer. I figured I better prepare her for when I but the next one. Lol.

I did buy her a nice rockhopper this summer. So she has no right to complain. At least that is my math.

right? even the difference between an I9 hydra hub and the torch hubs is astounding, ,56 degrees vs 3 degrees is huge,makes the one hope pro4 evo hub feel like it takes forever to engage!
