Got my Eclat Tibia cranks back from the powder coaters today! Removed the Bone Deth cranks currently on the bike,installed the new cranks,cleaned the old grease out of the cassette driver,added new grease to the driver and installed a new chain,went through the entire bike and checked all the nuts and bolts,lubed the brake cable and adjusted the pads,greased the headset.The bike is ready for the new riding season.

Slowly working on the Hutch... and remembering how much of a PITA it is to lay down decals. Seems the chrome backed ones show every little mark you may make. Oh well, they're on now and look good to me. Have 2 spots I'll probably work on but not going to labor on it too much. Not a carpet queen so if I knick it up while riding I won't feel too bad. Waiting on one decal to show up and I can put it all back together.

Also continuing my search for a decent chrome layback post I can use that closely resembles the Hutch posts and doesn't cost $300. Would like to have an OG post but my budget says otherwise.

Trying to code a new battery for an Avant.

Nice.
Does the car have the same motor or a I-5 swap?

Get yourself a Nitto layback.

Funny you mention that. I got fed up later that night and bought exactly that

Ole’ Crusty…well, it’s cleaner than it was, I’m pretty impressed by whoever rode this thing in the past, the brake cable is so short you can hardly turn left 🤣

My Diamondback Sand Streak has been on the stand for a while. Added a Tioga sealed bottom bracket, changed out the crank to a nice Sugino 175mm (from the 165mm stock) big difference! That with a Sakae spider and 39t sprocket, this thing rides amazing!

A Custom 3.0 (built off an S2 engine) turbo, base HP 408, but easily increased with some tweaks.
Today's project was to remove the front splitter so I can drive on the street (and repair it from a loading mishap)

Making some changes on the Hutch.

Thunder Nugget · 2022-02-06 10:19pm

Been picking at this a couple years... Finally almost done.... needs pedals and a front tube. Maybe a new "Fuji" decal. I scored the set of sugino cranks off an old Fuju road bike...love the look. Paint has some chips but shined up beautiful and has a nice flake.

My hyper FINALLY arrived to start working on and some of the parts for the Haro Mono too - tomorrow another grail frame arrives for me to begin - its going to be different because it was only offered in one color, but this going in a very different direction.

Built another wheel. Trying to go through my odd ball hubs, rims and on hand spoke sets to pair stuff up into complete wheels.

Still need to true the wheel up.

Looks good! I am working on a set myself. I think I finally have the spoke length nailed down. Got the front one laced last night. Planning to finish the rear later after work.

Looks great. Disc brake caliper is it bolt on? Also what rear hub is that?

Thank you! They are profile AC-2 hubs front and rear, the rear has a disc brake adapter. Slips on to the hub and slides into the rear drop out

Here’s a closer view if that helps
