GODS COGS
A busy focker 10/29/2009
 
Damn i have been busy the last couple of weeks and not much to do with hubs either. Sometimes family and my real job swamp my play time which is all good but slows progress on projects. Just so there something new to look at check out a few random shots from my cosy shed at home.....

Also waiting for some action are a couple of wheels for some patient local lads i am keen to hook up for destruction testing. I have had to resort to child labor to get shit done; this is my 7 yr old Harper who for $2 and 2 swigs of my chilled 'Bud' took up the slack on this wheel for local legend and '09 trick comp winner Mike Lawrence. In the background the 1st single speed i ever built featuring a disc wheel with monster Valentino Rossi decal - what a dude.

I've been cranking out some k's on my track bike lately and have decided to bat for the other team and am building up this roadie for mega rides. Its a steel NOS Moser from the mid 90's, flippin sweet. Full 10spd Record using titanium 9spd shifters and dérailleurs for that 'no carbon' look. Not knowing nought about gears and shit, its been really interesting finding out what its all about and what works with what and how, what a geek.Check some of the detailing...... 
Hanging behind it is a single speed project for my good mate Matty's wife Jos.

Cool as cucumber quill style seat post does away with any sort of clamp arrangement for a nice clean look.

pretty tight for a roadie huh....... love you Mr Moser.

My favorite squeeze, do heaps of k's on this bad boy. I've got an 84k road race on the 9th which takes in 2 laps of Lake Rotorua located in the center of the North Island.

The moser is just too nice to ride - glass case that thing and I'll pay for a tour.
