Rear hub finally died so it was time for a new wheel.

How you mounted Wald on 31.8 bar? There were any problems? Their website says that it will fit <25.44 bars...

Great build!

Cheers!

Wald updated their method of securing the basket to the bars so they take both 25.4 and 31.8 bars.

Initial build was were it's at. 100 times better than the sticker bomb, imho. Looks like a fun ride.

The set up with the drops is nice. Not a fan of the clown outfit build. Looks like a decent frame bomb around on.

Cheers! It was fun while it lasted, but I found I wasn't riding it as much. Changed it up to something super fun, and it's been the only one I've ridden over the past couple months.
