*UPDATE* SHE IS COMPLETE! - Building a Bike.
Hey everyone! Been awhile since I made a post, but this is pretty cool. I'm building a bike! I'm almost done and I'm pretty psyched about it, though it's been hell getting **** going. The first frame that was sent was damaged in shipping, the first set of wheels I was sent had the wrong hubs, and I had three companies that stated they had a crankset in stock and email me that they didn't, but all in all it's coming together.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow, I'll be getting the headset pressed together and everything cut and set at the right size, (gotta cut the fork so that it's not 10" out of the front bracket). She's gonna be pretty legit. Gatorskin tires on Vuelta track comp rims.
This will definitely make my leg feel better, tore my ACL a year ago, had reconstructive surgery and it's never been really as good because of the lack of biking. Hopefully I can bring the leg back to good condition and start skiing again!
