And today I did......

I bought a GT Outpost off Gumtree for my son only to find when stripped that the seat stay was damaged. I could have sworn I checked it carefully...

Today I was a guest of the NHS again.
I was take great care of by the lads and lassies of Victoria Hospital Kirkcaldy (THANK YOU) :D
I was in for a procedure called Cardioversion (Google it) The end result is my resting pulse dropped by 25 and my hearts firing on all cylinders again (for now).

A heart felt thanks to all the staff of the NHS :oops:

Re:

I spent last night smashing the axles out of 2 Bulbs and tearing my hands to shreds in the process

I now have 1 hub with short axle and I hub with innards but an axle so goosed that I'm going to have to get the local CNC shop to make a replacement!

I even had one of the sealed bearing disintegrate on me leaving the inner race welded to the axle, thankfully managed to get it off by tapping it down and then heating / lightly champhering the edge and then levering it off....

I love Hope stuff but it needs to be serviced regularly!
 
If you have experience of bashing out outer surfaces of bearings ive a job for you :LOL: . Got one rusted into a bulb freehub. So far in and thanks to the bit that tapers where it sits, i cannot get anything in behind it :?
Freehub is ti
Any thoughts ?

I found Jims brake pads :facepalm: so emergency over.
