Prepping spare bike for an out-of-town visitor tomorrow:
He gets a chunkier front tire, a 9mm thru-axle conversion, a clean brake rotor, and the pedals of his choice. :thumbsup:
Mine gets a kick to remove dry mud, and some oil on my chain.
Chewy was placed in the prep ward today for tomorrows surgical procedure, (fork removal to see if it is bent) and possibly liposuction to remove an unwanted chainring, Chewy will now be 2X10.
Took off and cleaned cassette! Hot water, rag, and finish line citrus degreaser gets it done! Next to come will be 'rings and chain, then finally no more crunchy sand/dirt/grime sounds coming from drivetrain!
I can only do small laps around my station... I still gotta be able to jump on the rig when people call 911.. I love working 48hr shifts, but it's a long time to not ride.
When I get home, I will change the rear tube on the Fish, the slow leak has finally pissed me off enough,
then I'll unpack and put together my new bike :thumbsupnot that exciting, its a CHF 350 shitter)
No riding today so I pedalled it by hand as it hung in my basement rafter.
Then gave it a nice pat on the down tube, we ride soon!
