What have you done to your bike today?

How’s the invisaframe install going?


It’s a great product but I have the wrong temperament for a project like that.

I’d end up looking like this......

It's actually not that bad, I think it's coming along pretty good. The problem with my frame is that being actual raw aluminum, the decals that came from the factory are not covered by a layer of clear coat, so when i had to move one piece that was not placed exactly right...a few tiny fragments of decal peeled off the frame and stuck to the protective film. It does take some patience, and if two pieces end up slightly overlapping you need to just let it alone and move on (I didn't and had the above described result). How it is going to hold up on the trail...we'll see!

@serviceguy this is all you need for raw aluminum

Yes, that will also scrape the decals right away...it’s Ok, the ragged style is part of what sold the bike to me.

I am going to time capsule the Fug in the back yard...make that the front yard, the back yard is pretty much taken by the septic tank!

Hey now! A little respect, it's the Fug you're talking about , jeez!

Until we see it actually being used, it’s still vapor-ware.

Ok, invisaframe fully installed as well as the MudHugger front fender (modified it to use velcro instead of zipties so that I can remove when securing the bike to the rack).

Invisaframe is very time consuming and needs a lot of attention, hopefully it will stick to the frame for a while! Not going through the process again.

After waiting a month, my wheels FINALLY came in. Quick caliper alignment n reach adjustment and she’s ready to roll. Shifting seems ok in the stand, but I’m never sure until I shift under load.

My buddy Dave was just cleared to begin light cardio post his cardiac event last month.

Weekly DZ Rides recommence on Sunday.

No worries J-, There are some benefits to delayed gratification...... think the Tantric Effect.

I’ll get you a better photo from my ride
Sunday.... thx again!

After thinking about it for a while, I drilled into the seat tube of my ICT and installed a dropper post.

303s? or 404s?

 

[Juggernaut]

303s? or 404s?

303’s. They’re optimized for 28c tires (that plump out to closer to 30 btw), the 404’s are optimized for 25’s. With these Jersey streets I’ll take any extra volume I can get while keeping the profile fairly aero.?

I’m a fat F*k and I can’t afford to run a floppy tire while railing winding descents. ?

Trek Sawyer?

Trek Sawyer?

Good eye. It's surprisingly hefty, but she's not going to be doing any racing.

Where did you find it?
I sold my size medium to a guy in NYC.
