Current Projects chat and miscellany

Alright I confess... My bike was actually locked up but I edited out the locks to give my super cool fixie clean lines.

No really what's potatochopped?

I did a joke about the size :)

To hide my jealousy.

I think my phone has quite a good camera. Well done, Sony Ericsson.

I measured the actual width of the wheel, and compared it to my dahon's 26's and it's not a standard 26" so i have no idea. I've decided to rebuild the original rim to a coaster brake hub.

Tommy (the brick) just built me a 26 x 1 3/8 (590) (endrick) coaster brake wheel for mrs lunch and a mighty fine job he did too. This was the standard wheel size for most old 'roadster' bikes. Got some whitewall tyres here;

but you can get gumwalls too;

I'm considering that new Sony Ericsson with the 12MP camera instead of an iPhone when I renew my contract. Mmmm. The camera on my k800 was awesome.

Better than those iPhones.

^ Ha! What did I tell ya!

my current project:

got the alphabet thus far.

are you supposed to mouth the word also?

3 days too late, but netherless, mouthing the word is optional, some does it, some doesn't, it helped greatly as it make it easier to 'read' what you're trying to said.

pile of shit is the new sony, had it for a week and nearly threw it into oncoming traffic.

Ah. Well iPhone it is.

What, specifically, gave you these violent thoughts?

you giants with your huge bikes ...

nothing worked.
it was a terrible phone, truly aggravating, it would lock you out or hang up cos of the touchscreen.
Camera took about a week to turn on and focus

operating system was overwhelmed.
games were good, but that was it.
shitty texting interface.
ideally meant for a stylus- I mean really who the fuck uses a stylus these days?
touchscreen was about as sensitive as a norwegian prossie's front bum.
just all crap.

Get the Milestone instead.

14th June, hello iPhone. Wait, isn't there a new iphone out soon though?

Googling milestone now.

Sumo, you have one?

The Cannondale in its current state. Just gone up from 49x19 to 50x19 and it feels heaps better. Funny how much of a difference one tooth can make.
Back on clips and straps, too. It isn't that bad. Got sick of spending my life in Sidis.

What saddle is that, and where you get that beast?!

Yup. Got it the other day.

What saddle is that

Selle Italia SLR

where you get that beast?!

Yep, saddle is an SLR and if you mean the frame it came from American eBay.

Ha. What do you think of the bike, Jorj?

I was restraining myself from comment. My views on those frames are pretty well known.

Is that a Nitto Crystemblue stem?
