That's what I use on the rear of last year's class two build. They make lacing a pain because they're drilled for a 140 spoke pattern instead of the standard 144

Me likey🤤

This may be a bad time and place to ask this, but I'm having a very difficult time finding wide rims. Does anyone know of a good place to order 3-5 inch (80-125mm) wide fat bike rims here in the US? Just the rims, not the complete wheel set. The only place I can find then reliably is from a...

I plan on building up the Evans Colson Olympic I picked up a few years ago. It hasn't moved since it came into my yard and it's now sufficiently crusty and seized up for the challenge. Just some new wheels, a little grease, nothing too fancy😜 I've also got some plans for an out of the world...

I guess that with the LEDs it kinda counts towards the lasers side of the threads name🤔

I gussied up the bike tonight for a group night ride with a bunch of friends. Had a great time and got to see downtown Kalamazoo after dark. We had bikes from three different decades in the group!

I made the holes in the gusset with a Christmas tree bit from harbor freight. Just took a bit of maths to get them to flow that way

I'll definitely update the thread if the paint shows up. It's going to be painted House of Kolor Root beer kandy

Thanks! If the paint ever arrives, I still want to paint it. It won't last long in raw steel with this Michigan weather. I can't put it in my garage/shop because it's too long to store hung up on the wall. I've only got 10 ft ceilings and the bike is 11 ft long

The final photo of this bike, before I broke it down for paint. I still want to fully paint it, but it's a matter of IF the paint ever shows up. Can't even get a refund because it's still "in transit, close to being delivered"

Well, I wasn't able to paint her the way I wanted, but she's otherwise finished. Never could come up with a good name for this build. It sure is a crowd stopper, and at 11 feet long it's a great traffic stopper Here's a link to the build thread...

Well, it doesn't look like I'll be able to paint the bike the way I wanted. I ordered the paint two weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived. Just checked the tracking code, and it's bounced around the US. From Texas to California to Indiana. The latest update has it in Niagara Falls, New York, at...

Back in my day you had to search out shady Internet forums on your parent's computer after everyone else went to sleep before the Chinese spies took any interest. Kids these days have it easy

No one needs this kind of negativity in their lives, lol. I'm struggling with the heat and my own poor financial decisions to finish my builds

Yep, our weaponized media seems to be doing nothing but spewing out distraction after distraction as the world around us continues to burn

The entire country seems to be on fire at the moment, so yeah I'd say they're heavily contributing to global warming. Visibility here in West Michigan two days ago was slightly over two miles

Be careful, there is no known cure for that

Long time no see. It's been hotter than Alexandria Daddario in a swimsuit these last few weeks, and thanks to Canada it's been a smokey, hazy mess. Just broke the bike down for the final metal work and starting on primer. No pics yet, just a bunch of sanding and welding

Got some night time pics. The city removed the light fixtures from my favorite night pic spot because the homeless were making camps there, but there's a few other decent spots around.
