Today was just about the longest day at work EVER! Patients were great, but just complicated. I don't think I stopped running around for a moment for over 10 hours. Needless to say, after a day like today, and the exercise I put in yesterday, I'm knackered! By the time I made it to my car after my shift, I only had 2 things on my mind: beer and building my bike.
Here is the progress I made tonight under the tutelage of my fine friend
1.0.
 |
I am attempting to break the chain. It isn't going well. |
 |
After my valiant attempt, 1.0 tries. Old socks make for clumsy gloves (FYI) |
 |
I think it's starting to get to him.... |
 |
I don't know what I'm doing here. Beer was involved. |
 |
Meanwhile..... |
 |
The dogs wanted to help, but sadly they lack thumbs. |
 |
Off comes the crank. |
 |
Finally! It is a lot easier when you have SRAM's little tool on hand...which we didn't. |
 |
Removing the rear derailleur. |
 |
Yup. |
 |
Seat post in, but needs new binder. The Cervelo fork looks cool, but will need to but cut. |
 |
The Girl is nakey. |
|
|
 |
Crank is on, but only to check for fit. BB needs to be faced and chased. |
 |
Installing rear breaks. |
 |
My old FSA K-Force Carbon bars and Fulcrum 7 Racing Wheels (Orig. came w/ R3.) |
 |
SRAM Rival gruppo |
 |
I hooked up the break cables and adjusted the pads. |
 |
Derailleurs installed. |
 |
OMG... I can't wait to finish building her!!! |
