All set for dirty work tomorrow.

The new rack wasn't heavy duty as advertised, it says it can carry 100k, (220 lbs). It won't go on this bike. I didn't like it. The...

I was trying to bolt an extra strut on each side, but with 10 of them, I doubled each side. That leaves just one extra. I took off the...

The gold arrived! I did some measuring and bending. I didn't have to do any cutting. All the holes lined up! I'm attaching the...

The 270mm spokes were a couple millimeters short of what I needed for 3 cross, so I ran the numbers for 2 cross and they are good. I...
