What have you done to your bike today?

And of course I put a purple chain on the transmission

Mostly everything arrived today, albeit stupid late (UPS was down the block 3 separate times today before finally arriving at 7p!). Started stripping off stuff, ran into lack of proper toolage a couple of times, so the rear axle and freehub swap, as well as crank swap are gonna have to wait for those tools. On the parts front, the brakes are straight connection light duty hoses, so I had to order some BH59s with bangos to accommodate the SLX swap. Lastly, the tubeless tape and studded tires are yet to ship, so that's another hold up. I hope to have it all together this coming weekend, we shall see.

Color fade is weird. I went orange for accents, matches good on the top tube writing, and to an extent the downtube. But the fork has an eraser/orange color, and as you can see in the pics it shows up red in them. Might have to rethink the accents

EDIT- This is the review pic I based the orange on; here they match really well I feel.
