• Not much has been happening in terms of bike fiddling so just a short update:

    With the threat of the on coming winter months I have finally got round to finishing the Charge beater to a point where its rideable(ish). Cranks are terribly worn and wobble off after a few miles so will be changed at some point. I also need to find some appropriately cheap mud guards and a grippier front tyre. Automatic hub is excellent even if it does change at the wrong time, I believe you can fiddle about with a spring to change this.

    The rack life is the good life.

    Other news:

    • I raced, got 3rd in the SS category at Grinduro and 38th at Ard Rock

    • The Seta is still desperate for new wheels

    • The Pompetamine is still in bits in my cupboard

    • I cant stop thinking about hardtail mountain bikes

    • I bought a set of road wheels and I don't know why

    • The office desk has moved out the box room so I now have loads of bike space in the flat

    • My girlfriends bike is finished and is probably the best looking Steamroller ever, photos soon

  • What's the plan?

    Going to use the parts to build up a rigid MTB and sell the frame and wheels. I have the feeling that I will keep hold of the frame for a bit for no reason other than I might want to build it SS.
