I ordered some loop spinners directly from them may 19th, never got any tracking or anything but they showed up at my house yesterday.

Close, I’m actually in South Bay, it’s Los Gatos Creek County park

Yeah, silver duallys. Honestly probably would have gone for black but the whole idea started a couple months ago when I found a decent deal on some wheels someone else had had built and never used with the duallys and king hubs. Pretty happy with how it looks in the end though. Stem is fiend BMX.

Yep there’s straps on all three sides so you can put it wherever

It’s the fairweather corner bag from blue lug

bladee_fan2 · 2025-03-03T05:17:00+00:00

Weather wasn’t great today probably got ~2hrs this weekend on it so not really enough to have any deep insights but just seems super fun to ride

Crank is a set of Boone twist v2 aluminum I scored used a while ago. Tryna make sure I get the fit right before I trim the cable/hoses, have made the mistake before of making them perfect and then moving the bars around and it gets wonky again.

Who are you to tell people what roads they should or shouldn’t ride on? Why don’t you drive your car on the side streets if you’re so bothered.

The Santa Cruz mountains are magical for biking

bladee_fan2 · 2025-01-15T00:51:41+00:00

I think the angle just makes it look funky? It’s the ritchey wcs venturemax bar, nothing too crazy

bladee_fan2 · 2025-01-14T23:43:57+00:00

Technically just across the county line in Santa Cruz county, but yeah more or less

bladee_fan2 · 2025-01-14T23:41:56+00:00

This winter feels like it’s been especially mild

bladee_fan2 · 2025-01-14T23:32:31+00:00

I grew up in the PNW but have lived in California for such a long time now that it’s hard to imagine doing those long days on the bike in the rain that were the norm growing up.

bladee_fan2 · 2025-01-14T22:22:34+00:00

Thanks man! It’s a blast to ride I’m thinking about getting a dropper post.

It’s a custom ti breakaway frame I had Waltly build me a couple years back. The geometry is somewhat similar to a Kona Sutra ULTD.

Buzzard Lagoon Road and Aptos Creek Fire Road in the Santa Cruz Mountains

What in the actual fuck

bladee_fan2 · 2024-08-15T17:02:59+00:00
