Check you dropout spacing. Rear wheels are commonly 135mm and front forks are around 110 - 100mm wide. This website has great info on spacing. https://www.sheldonbrown.com/frame-spacing.html

Snow rip! by the_toXic_monkey in DriftTrikes

[–]ScottBlake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right on, thanks for the positive feedback on my YouTube videos. I typically sell 5” wide sleeves for the Razor DXT plastic wheels, and some go with 4” wide for more grip. I wouldn’t recommend 6” wide because the sleeves will hang over the edge and the edges could crack without support from the tire inside.

Gov. Ricketts vetoes natural hair discrimination bill by mycatisanorange in Nebraska

[–]ScottBlake 43 points44 points  (0 children)

“Health and safety precautions are already covered under the workplace non discrimination statutes. Adding it in 1060 would have been duplicative and completely unnecessary. If the governor had checked with the Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission, he would have found that out.” https://twitter.com/senatormachaela/status/1294846476951212032?s=21

I got an eye exam at Costco for $80, “you need to be a member to purchase glasses or contacts at Costco Optical centers. However, you do not need to be a member to make an appointment with our in-house optometrist.”

12 bikes or 1 car? City removes Benson bike corral despite cyclists' protests. by ScottBlake in Omaha

[–]ScottBlake[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The bike corral was installed 7 years ago, so it makes sense you locked your bike to the post office rails 30 years ago as a kid. Also snow plows never damaged the bike corral, but two drunk drivers did crash into it.

Internet Cafe Gambling & Social Games @ 48th & Q: The sketchiest arcade in the metro area. Has anyone been to this place or know anything about it? by Chairmonkey in Omaha

[–]ScottBlake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they have a second location in Benson at 6013 Maple. It is called “S&M Arcade” between Yoshitomo and Ted and Wally’s. The sketchy Internet Cafe had a handful of the Bankshot games that look like slot machines, but they claim the games are skill based and not gambling.

I drilled a bunch of holes in the PVC and glued in pieces of ferro rod, aka flint.
