Re: SSV#6 haste made waste

sounds like when i welded the tank support in on the galt town hooligan AFTER i had pinstriped the top tube and cooked it so i had to do it all over. it happens, sometimes when i am building in the back of my mind i know i am one step from disaster

Re: SSV#6 Presenting "The Bully"

a word of warning on the rubber spacers you replaced. they equalize the pressure of the pads to both sides of the caliper. if you eliminate that give the caliper is only being pushed from one side. resulting in poor performance and more pressure having to be applied on the hand lever for it to brake properly. I am just saying this because i have run into that same problem. i used some rubber hose to duplicate the rubber spacers and it works great. Great job on your bike!

Sorry to hear about the elbow. Maybe it will heal up good on it's own because therapy is a son-of-a-gun! (I know, my wife is a Physical Therapist)

The pictures would've been great, but your creation stands strong on it's own.

thats sad to hear! i would have liked to see those pics! you don't have anyone that can help you? i would if i could...

 

[yoothgeye]

Good news no cast! only a splint after surgery. They are going in and screwing it together next week.

I am going to get some pics later.

Of your elbow?

 

[badmuller]

Thats crap man!! hope you'll be grabbing your tools and get to wrenching soon!!!

 

[yoothgeye]

but i do have a pic of where i hit. right up front and cracked the Radial cap. i have to get fixed because that has a lot to do with wrist rotation, or wrench turning.

Just read this to my wife (a licensed and practicing physical therapist) and her response was: "Ohhhh... eeeee, that's bad." So that's a professional's analysis.

Get better.

 

[badmuller]

Looks painfull man!! hope its not gonna bother you for too long.
