What is up with the water bottle cage? How did you get that to work?
I’ve been talking about a bottle cage for awhile now and we recently got the adapters in stock at the bike shop I work at so I finally did it. Drilled two holes in my frame, put in the adapters with the threads for the cage and boom there you have it. Shit is dialed.
Describe your personal bike setup
Chrome as f*ck.
Describe the contents of your personal bike tool bag.
I usually just carry a socket wrench and a 17mm socket with me in my camera bag, maybe some extra chain links and a tube as well.
What part do you wear through the quickest?
Tires, hub guards, and pegs. You’ve got to grind.
What part do you break most often?
Umm...spokes I guess. Chains too but not since I got a sprocket with a guard.
Do you patch flat tyres or get new tubes?
New tubes.
Which parts are you paranoid about breaking?
None cause I never do anything cool anyway, plus the only time things break is when my bike misbehaves and gets dealt with.
Where do your parts go when you’re done with them?
I usually keep it around for when someone needs it.
Who builds your wheels? anything special about them?
I do. Not really, other than the front one being really chrome and badass.
Cassette or freecoaster?
Cassette cause freecoasters are gay.
Kevlar bead or regular bead?
Doesn’t matter, they all wear out eventually.
Plastic pedals or metal?
Plastics lately cause they’re cheap and hurt less.
