[Looking for areas and riders in Auckland]

Here's a couple of pics:

Sorry about there being just 2 pics, it started to rain pretty hard.

Rides properly good, and i'm thankful for takin the boys advice at Tarty for getting a short stem, much prefer it to a Trialtech setup.

[Putting The 's' Into 'tgs']

[What Are You Listening To?]

That actually makes me f**king sick, have you even heard the original of those shitty remixes ?

I just youtubed them out of curiosity, and frankly I hope anybody who has ever had anything to do with "easy star all stars" dies a slow and painful death.

Course I've heard the originals. normally I'm not one for remixes either, guess its down to what you like to listen to at the end of it.

[What Are You Listening To?]

[Control 09]

Rides top Luke. Bike weighs 8.4kg's now, was 8.8 in the pic

Now has a trialtech stem, front vee, and 28h radial front wheel.

edit: and a conti speedking 2.1 front tire.

[Knurling Machine = No More Grinding?]

Tarty gave me a knurled DX32 to test. It looked promising, very rough, constant surface.

Unfortunately it didn't work to the same standard as a grind using my proven home made pads. Wore the pads out much faster than usual, and it had nowhere as near as much hold as a grind. Shame really!

I did make a mistake though... built the rim up just before Koxx days and didn't ride any street on it whatsoever. Should've tested it on somewhere less extreme as Buthiers!

It kinda performed like a smooth rim. No loud squeaking when dragging the brake, plenty of modulation but a serious lack of hold! When you dragged the brake it sounded weird, like a zip being zipped up fast lol.
