  1. Firsty I have to say, Sorry Sponge for making this thread at exactly the
    same time as you! Lol!

    The frame is painted so it was time to assemble "The Beast"!

    I was going to get a Koxx one Hub and cranks but Roland from
    municycle.com told me (Very helpfully, Thanks for pointing it out
    Roland!) that the K1 crankset would not fit the frame. I bought an
    onza hub instead, but had to drill the holes out as the 12 guage spokes
    would not fit! I also had to drill out the holes on the rim because the
    nipples (Giggle!) wouldn't fit through! So last night was spent
    building the wheel, and the rest was done this morning!

    I know, I don't have cranks because I ran out of money! Getting some
    wednesday when I get paid!

    I will be rockin' this beast at London!

    Pictures!

  5. Sounds like a perfect time to practice wheel walks and glides, just wrap
    the end of the hub with some cardboard and tape to protect it if you
    drop it and its a perfect gliding machine!

    Hmm! I need to learn them, sounds like a great idea. But I wouldn't
    wanna drop it already, and learning stuff for me normally means
    dropping my uni loads! Lol!

    Rock on!
