god! why didn't anyone ever tell me about tape???
for the first eight months of riding fixed, tubs were the bane of my existence! as well as stackbolts (from old TA cranks) that came loose every time i skip-stopped...
i spent more time trying to source parts and glue tubs on myself that i wound up building a beater just for riding around london and will save the other for the track
