    Argh. I have a set of DT Swiss on the RacerX that wratchets loudly, need a wheelset to ride around the neighborhood without waking anyone up. Have some 26" holy rollers to use, just need some decent wheels. I dunno why I asked about the disc hubs, I saw the mention of the BB7's. Derr.

    Ain't you in Tx?

    Ever rode a recumbent? There are several varieties but I much prefer mine, long wheel base, over seat steering, twin 26 hoops. You would fall in love, once you got a few miles under the belt. Like learning to ride, all over again, all the centers of gravity are just totally different. But SOoooo damn comfortable, no weight on the wrist and shoulders, neck is straight, the seat is a leather bucket seat...just none of the pain of an upright, diamond frame.

    I'd like to think I could make side $ fabricating frames, if not total builds but I live in a tiny redneck town in South Fl.

    Hahh, had a real nice pair of DT Swiss hubs and some really fat Mavic DH rims, DT spokes too. Anyway, some years back I fabricated a 'tall bike' (like i could look a semi driver in the eye) and I ran disc on the front. Riding along one day and thought I broke a spoke, nope...the unusual stress of a disc on that long fork actually broke the flange on the hub :(

    Get a nice Deore wheelset, relatively cheap but quality and reliable and quite and disc.

    And nope, Florida Cracker here, born and bred.:)

    What ever victory you feel you are enjoying is misplaced as it was an offer of violence that changed their minds.

    You might have gotten injured had you done what I had done. Be safe, stay armed.

    We just have a different idea about “being armed”

    For us it does not mean a gun

    One meaning less then two but more than zero. Just because you take a picture of a few tourist doesn't mean you're international.

    It's actually kind of pathetic you would brag about this.

    It seems you have a stupid idea of being armed. it sure is a good thing the criminal didn't have a gun cuz Mr didgeridoo guy would have just been blown away.

    Good must be nice living on the other side of the planet from any other country where nobody can bring in contraband to your country.

    Aussies don't know the first thing about living on a continent with other countries. so your lectures about the sorts of things are kind of like being lectured buy a virgin about how good sex is.

    And that is our point

    WE a don’t need a gun because few criminals have them and they do not have them because they are generally not available. You have to know someone who knows someone who might lend you a gun

    They try plenty to get guns into the country but it still ends with the minor crims - ones like the opportunistic bugger that tried it on with this bloke, are not likely to have access to a gun.

    America is in a civil arms race egged on by the NRA

    Mate, proportionately, I'd rate us well above 'you' on multiculturism. Just a different lot of cultures than what 'you' have.

    Mate with losers you do.

    I am not your "mate".

    Come to southern California and get back to us on multiculturalism.

    Lets see how it goes.

    Why is that angry lesbian yelling in your graphic?

    Because she's violent?

    Lets hope she's not violent.

    because you don't share a continent with other countries. I bet there's not a lot of guns in Antarctica either.

    yes smuggling is a lot harder when you live on a secluded island.



    if you wish to get them in our country you can just stroll across the border with them.

    This is the reason why I say you don't know what you're talkin about.

    which would make it profoundly stupid for us to ban them. The United States isn't an island in the middle of the ocean.

    We have more illegal aliens in our country then you have people in yours.

    You have no clue what you're talking about.
