Hopefully the weather quits pissing on us. Today was supposed to be my day. Rear tire is all good, i think the valve might have been loose. WTF is the point of Presta besides some tiny weight savings? I end up riding around with a schrader adapter on the front anyways.

Stronger rim since the hole is smaller. I like it cause it holds the valve straight when changing a flat. I hate when schraders get crooked haha

It sucks. My xc bike has no cranks on it and my jumper needs a shifter so no mtb till tuesday. I might hop on the road bike if it doesnt rain this weekend.

Those performance shifters suck ass so I ordered a cheap deore. I spent way to much money today. 2 sets of tires and a shifter :eek2:

They're nothing crazy. I dont even know what they're called. I think truvativ stylo something. Like the ones I told you to get.

That first revelation I bought is still leaking out of the motion control top. It's annoying and I don't know why it's leaking still. I replaced all the o-rings up there

Finally got to ride the singletrack in Oswego for the first time this season a couple days ago. Was pretty fun even though it was still damp. Bike felt great even though i blew out the rear tire. I don't know know if it's a combination of the new tires and suspension or what, but i could blast through sections i used to take a lot slower.
