Have the travel agents coming from the states, plus a broken xt v brake!?that I have to fix.

Built some wheels in the weekend, turns out they are LX mtn hubs, Wheelsmith straight gauge spokes, laced to WTB dual duty XC 700c rims (not light or welded, but built up pretty good)and the only ones I could get.

So I put the drive on and tuned it up, man those bar end shifters are sick!Nice and clunky on the shift, none of this fairy sti stuff!

Bought some hole saws for the tube notcher that came from the states via Blue shark (thanks Al), can't wait to spark it up, just need a drill to drive it now.

Also got some conti top contact 700x32 coming tomorrow, they sound good couldn't get the right combo in the schwalbe and have had nothing but good from the GP4000's on my Trek, so think i'm on the right track.
