Today I received a nice postcard from Bosnia

Attached to it were some wheels. After some remounting and truing, I have a whole bike. Have a photo dump in return

Awesome!

You didn't have any problem with the canti pads hitting the tyres sidewall did you? one of the main issues with Massive Fucking Tyres is that the sidewall protrude so much that the pads can hit the sidewall before it finally hit the rims.

I'm sure you know this, hut I want to throw this in as a precaution.

A+ work, loved every single thing about it, beside the horrendous paintjob.

Yeah, had to be very careful setting them up, but mostly issues when reinstalling wheels as it's a real push to get the tyres past the pads.

The paint job really is wonderfully hideous isn't it? I love it. I have classier plans for the future.
