^That looks amazing.
On a wishbone theme, here's mine:
Thanks to sumo, I had some motivation to sort out my road bike. I couldn't work out one very annoying sound it was making, suspecting rear wheel and it's spokes. Last two months it was sat by the wall gathering dust.
Sumo took it for a spin for me and couldn't see anything wrong, no strange sounds, only adjusted the gears slightly. As soon as I got on a bike, sounds appear, and he goes: "Spokes!".
My suspicions were correct. So I spend some time smoking a jazzy cigarette while tensioning and truing the wheel, and it now back to being rideable and silent, but that wheel needs some love from someone who knows it better than me. Will give broken777 a call soon about it.
Thanks again Henry!
