Default Look what I did today!

So im tired of waiting for someone else to fix my rim problems, so I did it my self. I cut some spacers and added my own pulley spacer to get my 260 on my blackline. PM also sent me the wrong rear rotor so I dont have that either, but I still put it all together and took it for a spin no rear brake and all. Im happy to get it going but the service I have received sucks. I love PM products but they make way to many screw ups for such expensive parts. But here it finally is well almost anyway.

Just thought id throw a shot of my glide in there too.

Self help is the best help. Nice job bike looks awsome. I like the no front fender pick best also.

It sucks that the service you have received has been sub par. Nothing gets me more than that. I tried to help but i guess it did nothing. Whoever dropped the ball really seems to have dropped it. Over years in this industry I have learned that stuff just seems to go wrong sometimes. It is the nature of the business.

On the other hand, your bike looks great. It looks better without the rear rotor. Now paint hat fender and git r done!

I am not a fan of newer bikes but that is very nice. I also like it without the front fender.

Tis one sexy *** bike sir! I'm gonna reserve my vote on the front fender till I see a little better pic of it on. It did look pretty good without. Keeps going witht the stripped to essentials look.
