Started on the front hub. sanded off the text and rough flashing and began buffing it down. It will look nice when matched with the rear hub. Cool

Found a box at my in-laws. Thought it would be perfect for storing parts. Smiley

Went jacket shopping today. Tried on the REV' IT! Tornado. Fits nice! Will probably get it in hi-vis yellow. Checked out the Heidenau tires as well. I like them! Smiley
Back to work on the front hub tomorrow.

I bought a Hi Vis jacket a few years back, the boneheads around here seem attracted to it, any time I wear it I have more close calls than when wearing my black leather jacket
YM of course MV

Well I got the jacket a few weeks back. It fits perfectly and is quite bright. The bike will be painted Schwinn red and I'll be putting reflective graphics on it.

This is my last post on this thread. Ryan e-mailed me saying my parts are ready. I sent my final payment to him yesterday and I should have my parts next week. I'll be starting a new thread with video links and pictures of my build. It will be in a link below. Very excited! Cool

P.S. Just ordered a set of Heidenau K36 4.00-18 64H TL Tires from Revzilla. Cheesy
