  1. I posted this in a BMX fourm but its full of twelve year olds so I will post this here:

     

    So I installed a new free wheel on my hub and when I went to see if everything was okay buy cranking the cranks and seeing if the wheel would go...well when the back wheel was turning it looked kind of wobbly and made a click noise. Is this bad? Is it safe to ride? Did I misalign my free wheel?

     

    HALP!

     

    I did this with my old single speed. I had put the freewheel on slightly crooked and fucked up my hub. It didn't click though. I'd take it off and make sure you put it on straight, that is if you didn't cross thread it already like I did.

     

    On another note, just finished up my grocery getter. Coaster brakes, huge ass leather saddle, and split baskets on the back. It's sickening how heavy this thing is. The rear wheel outweighs my road bike.

     

    Lastly, I got a cleat fitting to take care of my knee problems. They lowered my seat and pushed my cleats forward which felt a lot better. Since my right leg is so much shorter than my left they told me there weren't enough shims in the world to fix my problem and my best bet is to build up the foot bed inside my shoe. I got some inserts in there now and I'll take a ride tomorrow to see how it feels. Considering my knee is starting to get back to 100%

     

    Sorry for the long ass post.

    Dear today,

     

    It's about 5 right now and I have not left the couch. It's gross outside and I lack motivation right now. Tonight should be fun though.

  3. I just picked myself up a new project bike from the trash yesterday. Little 3-speed cruiser. I have it stripped to the frame right now and everything put in baggies according to where it goes and what not. Going to sand blast the fuck out of it this week and paint it. I'm thinking pearl white. We'll see how it goes putting that thing back together though. I know nothing about 3-speed hubs.
