While I realize I have another thread on the subject I will use this thread to talk about all my other/future projects (unless it is something really cool then it gets its own thread).

Current Obsession: 1993 Trek 950 SingleTrack

when i first got it

stripped down and cleaned

so far I have pulled all the parts off the frame and gave everything a thorough cleaning. I also have a new set of wheels being built as we speak. I should* have every thing put back together and ride-able with in 2 weeks.

*if I have time

the rims and hubs I will be using

Kellan, this thread is worthless here at work (read: I can't see the pictures here) I clicked the edit button so that I could copy and paste the links, but even that was blocked.

Just saving my place for later. Which one is the 850, is that you single speed?

fiatjeepdriver · 04-15-2008, 04:47 PM

the 850 is my Fiat. the 950's are my ss and the green mtb i got a little while ago.

Tornadom · 04-15-2008, 06:55 PM

I can see it now! It's amazing what a home PC on an unfiltered internet connection can do.

Looks like fun. I used to have Shimano DX parts, as that used to be their BMX groupo... when they were cool enough to have a BMX groupo.

fiatjeepdriver · 04-15-2008, 07:07 PM

the hubs, shifters, and headset are DX. the derailluers, crank, and brakes are LX. it will be a sweet old mtb when all said and done.

also i replaced the bearings in the headset on my jamis yesterday.

fiatjeepdriver · 04-16-2008, 05:24 AM

i picked up some new grips for the trek and some tubes so i can use my new wheelset (well i have had it for 3 months) for my main mtb.

fiatjeepdriver · 04-16-2008, 06:59 AM

well i installed the new wheels and enjoyed a couple beers while i worked.

fiatjeepdriver · 04-17-2008, 07:22 AM

i started painting my ross today

fiatjeepdriver · 04-17-2008, 09:07 PM

new brackets for my frame pump

the first couple of coats are done. now i need to know where to put the green paint

fiatjeepdriver · 04-24-2008, 07:18 PM

well i thought i would mask off the yellow i was going to leave and start painting the frame green today but i had a little up-ka-fuck and have to do a couple more coats of yellow now.
