What forks are those; they have the appearance of a society especially with the nobs.

good stuff, its pretty easy to do once you've done it a two or three times. I like the all black, get the front rim to match the back it will look sick.

yes sir! yours kicked the hell out of all the others i could find.

i laced it originally with my old spokes that were too long using your tutorial. then i knew how to do it so i laced it legitimately in my room with no tutorial to see how dialed i had the process. worked out pretty great hombre

Well actually yes! I wouldn't have found that guide if you hadn't shown me. I would have had to use one of the shitty other ones i found if not for you, so you saved the day bro. Don't feel like an arse, lol.

hahaha man im pretty stoked actually. i didn't even purposely put it up as a tutorial i jst put it up to show how I build my wheels, so glad it helped at least SOMEONE Big Grin i think pinkbike should think twice before banning me because i actually know ALOT of things to do with bikes, haha

yeah, dude. your guide was just so simple the way you did it. all the other guides i found dropped ALL the spokes before lacing any of them in, which was hella confuse.

tup yeah i agree, with the front chrome rim its gonna look clicked. i hated all the white it used to have, white's not my style lol so its all gone now. also white goes bad with chrome so, gone.

flag ChateLife (Jul 19, 2009 at 20:10)
yeah that would be very nice but i think all black w/ chrome rims and spokes is gonna look even more neat. stealth and flashiness at the same time? i dunno. i was thinking about getting 2 black runaways (same as rear rim but black) but decided chrome = better

getting chrome rim its in the process. uh, how do you "chrome" stuff? i'd be so down for doing my bars if i knew how. there's some way to polish them or something?

you could have hem chrome plated but you cant do it yourself I dont think.

flag ChateLife (Jul 22, 2009 at 12:00)
Oh. I think you can polish stuff though and make it look chrome? But it probs costs lots of money for the equipment. I don't want to chrome plate anything because it adds quite a bit of weight from what I've heard.

yes i agree, another thing we've almost upgraded everything on the P2, with that amount of money we coulda gotten a newer p series with parts you would not have to upgrade, aswell the big shit has seen no love the jpv himself, it sits there completley stock, your p2 parts are fine for the amount/type of riding you do, the bigshit needs the parts more then your p2. look around for parts, buying used isnt bad, theres no need to always buy brand new stuff, you could saved alot of dought buying a hub, just a hub from jeff thats all you needed the rim was fine for waht you do. you coulda put that money into a fork or something else you need more, now your gunna be tempted to get the back rim done aswell, just because single tracks aren't freat doesnt mean you have to change them, they were fine for the amount and pressure you ride on them. just my opinion
