24.01.2022 The next workshop job was another bike banished to the indoor trainer for some sweaty fun. The trainers are good, although they certainly take their toll on these road bikes with all the sweat thst ends up all over them. They should be wiped down after every session and if possible dried out. The sweat runs down the stem into the headset and down the seat tube into the bottom bracket causing that annoying, creak, creak, creak. #sweatfest #sweatservice #isopropylalcohol #ourbestfriend #notjustforcovid19 #sweat20 #radworkshop #radcyclery #indoortraining

24.01.2022 So with all the parts ready it was finally time to build this Mirraco Clipse. I used two of my suppliers for the build, BMX International and Oceania Bicycles. I used Black DRS cromoly forks, Candybars and Expert wheels, Saltplus Black Forest Camo sidewall 2.4 tyres, Eclat Army Green Shogun grips, then all Mission parts for the rest including their Control stem, Turret headset, Mid BB, Transit 175mm alloy cranks, with a 25t Nexus alloy sprocket and Black 510 Teflon coated cha...in with a both a half link and joining link to make the fit better. I complimented the cool Saltplus Camo tyres with a Stealth seat and seat post with Impulse pedals to finish it off. It was definitely a bit of fun building this up and it's all pretty straight forward compared to the usual road bikes and mountain bikes I work on and service in the Rad Workshop. #bmx #bmxbuild #bmxbikes #bmxlife #mirraco #mirracoeclipse #mirra #davemirra #rip #legend #salt #saltplus #eclat #eclatbmx #drs #drsbmx #mission #missionbmx #ridetime #yeehah #radcyclery #bmxinternational #oceaniacyclesport #bmxstuff @ Rad Cyclery See more

23.01.2022 Bikes were ready, but legs weren't ready. It was a beautifully clear day, although very cool first up, so this didn't help me warm up. So after 20 minutes of just bludging at the back of the pack, then a gel I decided to test the old tired legs from 2.5hrs on the mountain bike yesterday arvo. So I went through to the front and just put in a bit of an effort and was told by breakaway mate Gary that we've got a break. So it was just keep pushing until the legs fell off and they... did one lap to go, so I was happy with my effort again today getting 4th after doing all the work for 15 minutes. #critpig #diggingdeep #timetrialsunday #tt #shutuplegs #greatracing #coldbloodyday #goldcoastmasterscyclingclub #queensland #beautifulonedaybloodycoldthenext #itsrad #radteam #radroadteam #radcyclery #limar #limarhelmetsaus #limarwhitesocks #legs #lukes #lukesplace #gonetoosoon #riplukey @ Luke Harrop Memorial Criterium Circuit See more

23.01.2022 My first workshop job today was to sort out a few issues on this cool looking Giant Trance. I've never sold Giant bikes, although at one time we were all set to do it and a shop about 15k away complained about us doing them, so the tiny balled rep gave me the bad news, so I told him until he grows bigger balls don't ever come back in my shop. Oh yeh I haven't seen him since, so sad, anyway, this one needed new Sram Guide pads, new grips, so I fitted these Oury double lock Black beauties on, then it was onto sorting the Sram GX rear derailleur that was sitting in the hanger apart. New cable fitted, including the dropper post and it's all good to go again. #giantbicycles #gianttrance #notinatrance #smallballedrep #nofliesonme #notbackwardincomingforward #since1998 #ourygrips #srambrakes #sramcomponents #radcyclery @ Rad Cyclery

23.01.2022 After being at the dentist this morning for a tooth removal, it was kind of ironic that my first workshop job was sort of the same. After losing a few teeth on the rear sprocket, it was crunch time for the poor derailleur not having some good teeth to keep it aligned. Anyway the parts are ordered from our Sram suppliers and it's home time for me to catch up on a bit of sleep I haven't had since the tooth issue. I'll be back at the Rad Shop tomorrow at the usual time with a mouth that's not throbbing and some much needed sleep, just like the legs and sleep deprivation at a 24hr mtb race. #dentist #toothlessskipper #itsnotrad #radworkshop #sramcomponents #sramdrivetrain #sramgx #sramgxeagle12speed #goodasnewsoon #24hrs @ Rad Cyclery

21.01.2022 OMG this Instagram App sucks big ones So with the latest and worst update you can only post one photo at a time, otherwise it crashes big time. You would reckon with all the money that Mr. Facebook supposedly has he could get a simple app working wouldn't you. Anyway this is the O'Neal Matrix Glove, and it's probably the wickedest looking glove I have ever had the pleasure of stocking. I did order a few in all sizes with a spare large for me of course. #oneal #onealmx #onealmtb #onealbmx #onealgloves #onealmatrixgloves #anarchy #nofutue #dontfollowanyone #legalizecrime #lightweight #boldgraphics #stickersincluded #bonus #50yearsfaster #whoisfoxanyway #radcyclery #since1998

21.01.2022 One of my workshop jobs today was fitting some 2nd hand 10 speed Shimano Ultegra parts that the customer bought in, onto this Orbea Diva. So after removing the original and tired Di2 shifters it was onto installing the shifters, then the usual cabling to the brakes and derailleurs then the final adjustments. The customer will sort the bar tape out once a comfy hand position is found. #orbeabicycles #diva #carbondiva #shimanocomponents #10 #10speed #oldbutstillworks #radworkshop @ Rad Cyclery

21.01.2022 So this was my last workshop job today. It's a Vroomen White Designed P2C Cervelo. Back in the day, this was just one of those out there looking bikes with that jammed up rear wheel look and that aero tyre hugging seat tube. Funny enough it still looks very modern and up to date amongst all the new models now. #cervelo #cervelop2c #service #newdriveline #sramcomponents #suntour #radworkshop #radcyclery #since1998 #triathlonbikes @ Rad Cyclery

20.01.2022 I usually love building wheels, especially nice wheels like this carbon Roval Traverse. This was just a DT Swiss spoke upgrade on the ones that Specialized used and I guess they would be good enough for most riders, but they haven't been good enough for my mate Kevie. It's on a longer travel bike than what they were designed for but it shouldn't be an issue with tougher spokes. Anyway getting back to my love of building wheels, its even better when I get sent sent the size I ordered, but we can blame Covid 19 as everything is being blamed on this epidemic, and not just a stupid brain fade. #wheelbuilding #dtswiss #dtprecision #roundnotroval #rovalwheels #brainfade #spokelengthiseverything #haha #comeon #letskeepourbrainsswitchedon #rad #radworkshop #radcyclery #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery

20.01.2022 I had a wheel dropped of to me late yesterday for a service, as the axle was loose. As soon as I removed the Rotor it was definitely in need of a service, or more to the point a repair. So with replacement parts like hens teeth at most of our suppliers, it was wait a month for the stock to arrive or a new wheel, so with the young fella chomping at the bit to get back out and hit the trails it was a new wheel ordered instead. This can be a spare once the parts arrive. #goodchoice #shimanoparts #mtbbits #mtbpart #radservicing #radrepairs #radsales #keepingridersriding #noexcuses #radcyclery @ Rad Cyclery

18.01.2022 Now that's the way it's supposed to be, with the correct size spokes supplied and bang it's ready to rock and roll. #dtswissspokes #itsrad #dtswiss #specializedwheels #rovalwheel #roundnotroval #thebigs #carbonstuffiscool #radworkshop #goodstarttotheworkweek #jobdone #radcyclery #fixingstuf #since1998

16.01.2022 My first workshop service job today was this cool Contessa that I sold the customer back in the days of my second round of selling Scott Bikes. The wild graphics on the white frame was very striking and a popular style for Scott back then, which included some of their dirt jump bikes. They've gone away from doing it a little different to doing it the same as everyone else these days. It was an early start for me this morning at 8:30 although I needed a head start on the day as I had heaps of work ready for parts to be delivered. #radworkshop #rad #bicycleservicing #scottcontessa #graphics #coolgraphics #backintheday #radcyclery @ Rad Cyclery

16.01.2022 Just received our latest top up on Northwave Cycling Shoes. I've been selling this brand since about 2005 when they were being imported by the then Orbea Australia which we also sold at the time. They've always been an awesome priced shoe, with their quality to match the higher priced, or overpriced other brands and have always come out with super cool colourways, like this Acid Green Scorpius Plus MTB shoe. The White Scorpius SRS has been an great seller for us and now with ...a new edition of the Phantom SRS road show it's great to get some stock back in. I've certainly looked at what other brands have to offer and I haven't been persuaded to make a change as yet, so welcome to another year of Northwave. #northwave #northwavecycling #awesome #qualityshoes #wickedstyles #coolcolorways #scorpiussrs #scorpiusplus #phantom #mtb #road #mountainbiking #roadcycling #riding #newshoeday #shoesforeveryday #radshoes #radcyclery #northwavesince2005 #bigwaves @ Rad Cyclery See more

16.01.2022 Well this was worth dropping the paint roller at home for awhile to come into the Rad Shop to receive. This is the Rotor InPower Crank & BB setup with that freaky Oval Chainring. They say it increases performance with less knee stress, I guess when pushing hard. I certainly can't argue with that, as Chris loves his wobbly chainrings and can produce a fair bit of power, especially on his TT bike. I also ordered a set of these Look Keo 2 Max Carbon pedals at the same time as I needed, or just wanted a new set for myself. #rotorbike #rotorcranks #rotor #powertothepeople #powertothepedals #oval #wobblyring #lookpedals #lookcarbon #keo #keocarbon #keo2max #powertothemax #rad #radcyclery #sellinggoodshit #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery

15.01.2022 OMG it looks like the good ole days of Rad Cyclery with all these Time Trial, Triathlon bikes in the workshop. Back in the old days 60% of my work was to do with this type of bike and customer, although my triathlon days are over I still get excited with the aeroness of these weapons. Designed to get aero and to be able to push out heaps of power mainly in a straight line, as the geometry isn't made for climbing or corners really. #lovemybikes #tt #ttfun #timetrialweapons #tribikes #pedal #pedalhardandfast #nocornersplease #hills #nohillseither #justflatandfast #radcyclery #goodoledays #triathlontraining #missitbad

14.01.2022 My first workshop job today was a Shimano 1x11 conversion on this Yankie coloured Cannondale Prophet. Back in the day a 3x9 was all the business, these days it's out of business and a 1 by is definitely the go. Nor all bikes can be converted to a you beaut 1x12 so a 1x11 is the next best, and what a difference it makes to the ride. #happycustomer #mtblife #mountainbikesrule #onebyelevenconversion #1x11speed #nomoregranny #ripgranny #one #oneringtorulethemall #shimanocomponents #deore11speed #radcyclery #radworkshop @ Rad Cyclery

13.01.2022 So this brake set looks pretty bloody sexy even in the brushed metal look packaging. It's going onto a Canyon Lux Dualie with a direct mount rear caliper, yep that's the tiny little part in the box. Shimano have this in their current stock range where Sram make it OEM only. This is the Shimano XTR Race range as it's the lightest available made mainly for competition although ends up on a lot of trail riders due to the weight and high end look. #shimano #xtr #shimanoquality #shimanobrakingsystems #shimanoxtrrace #directmountcaliper #sexy #sexystuff #radworkshop #radcyclery #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery

13.01.2022 I'll certainly have one happy young fella out there shredding the trails after his new wheel turned up right on time from Shimano. This is their 600 series wheel which comes tubeless ready out of the box with the valve installed, so all you have to do is mount the cassette, rotor and tyre, add some sealant, bang it up and roll it out. #shimanoquality #shimano #shimanowheels #tubelessready #reallyready #reallyrad #totallyrad #radworkshop #itsrad @ Rad Cyclery

12.01.2022 So my first workshop job today was a big one. As mountain bikes get older they start needing more and more maintenance, especially if they haven't been looked after from the start, I guess like this one. So with the new owner wanting to get it up to a decent level, it required a bit of work. The first thing that was desperate, was a service on the RockShox Reba. You can even see the dryness on the staunchion and once it was pulled apart it was very bad. So we come to a couple... of choices here, the first is don't service it and but a new fork, or as the bike is old, service it to prolong it's lifespan for a bit longer. The other things we had to do was a new chain and cassette as it was also pretty bad. The chain rings will have to be done next time, although probably cheaper to buy s new crank. Anyway it turned out pretty good and even test rode very good considering it's she and condition when it came in. #happycustomer #newcustomer #gianttrance #oldiebutagoodie #tiredoldgirl #radworkshop #bringingthembacktolife #itsrad #nevertoold #likeme #radcyclery #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery See more

12.01.2022 I'm always excited about opening up this box of Eagleness. Sram have definitely put some effort into their packaging and even after a few times it's still pretty special. A few of my regulars have come in this morning to check it out and I've had some tissues at the ready. So this is the full Sram XX1 AXS dub groupset with a 36t front chain ring to up the ante on the climbs. The full box and dice Retails for $3399.95 + $149.95 for the 36t Big Dog. #axs #srammtb #sramcomponents #srameagle #soarlikeaneagle #eagle #sramxx1eagleaxs #electronicshifting #notelectronicpedalassist #justpedal #noassistancerequired #bigdog #psicycling #radcyclery #since1998 #bigal @ Rad Cyclery

11.01.2022 OMG, now I'm just showing off. Anyway these are the O'Neal Pin It MTB Shorts made out of a super lightweight material, which is super strong and super cool. With it's lightweight waist buckle that can ratchet up nice and snug, and with sizes from the skinny arse, up to, let's say the larger Covid 19 size guts out there, I'll have a size to suit. #pinit #pinitonya #onealpinitshorts #mtb #baggyshorts #onealmtb #onealriders #onealracing #radcyclery @ Rad Cyclery

11.01.2022 Just got a small top up order of the best mtb pedal on the market, Crank Brothers classic Eggbeater. These pedals were released at about the same time I started Rad Cyclery and I've been using these ever since. Coming from a road back ground and the big Look system, these easy in and out design have helped me progress as a rider, especially my technical riding as I always hated the SPD mechanism. I always keep the Eggbeater in their #2 & #3 as they are similar pedals with a few upgrades fi r each step up. They are completely rebuildable and can take at least 2 rebuilds before you need to get a new set. #crankbrothers #crank #brothers #eggbeater #easyineasyoutdesign #noneedforeggs #mountainbikesrule #pedals @ Rad Cyclery

10.01.2022 My first day of the working week is usually spent sorting out the week, which includes a few orders for workshop jobs, although as it's a short week due to a public holiday on Friday I thought I better start on this Platinum Service or includes stripping the bike to frame and this Scott Spark is due for it's Fox Fork & Shock service as well. So with all the parts off and cleaned, I've just got the suspension to service tomorrow and then put it all back together. It's also a great time for Matt to bite the bullet and fit that XX1 AXS groupset he's been dreaming of while it's naked, not dreaming of when he's naked, OMG that's a bit scary. #radworkshop #platinumservice #stripdownnaked #omg #thatscary #scottsparkrc #100mmrocket #xcweapon #rc #radcyclery #since1998 #sramaxs #xx1axs @ Rad Cyclery

10.01.2022 Now I'm being daring, I tried two photos this time and it actually worked Anyway this is the O'Neal Volt BMX - DJ helmet with some wicked looking graphics around the lower section of the helmet. That's one thing with Mr. O'Neal, he's certainly not scared of getting in ya face with graphics is he, and I love it. #oneal #onealbmx #onealdirtjumpers #classichelmet #onealvolt #radcyclery #proudonealdealer #goodonya @ Rad Cyclery

09.01.2022 One of my workshop jobs today was a service on this Specialized Roubaix with that freaky springy front end. It's a good looking bike apart from the matt finish which definitely needs a bit of work, especially that lime clean. The Praxis crank is a nice touch to change it up and the mechanical TRP disc brake works pretty good with new pads. #rad #radworkshop #bicycleservicing #specialized #specializedbikes #roubaix #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery

09.01.2022 Since those clowns unleashed Covid 19 onto the world, a whole lot of things have changed, which has included events to be cancelled or postponed. One of these events is the Brisbane Ekka, yep full of clowns, real ones and pretend ones, some show cows and those stupidly expensive show bags. So as we all love a public holiday they have decided to honor this with a day off this Friday instead of people's day on the usual Wednesday. So it sort of gives us a loong weeeekend, well ...for those that work Saturday it doesn't like me, but my boss has decided to give me the day off anyway as I've been such a good boy and done all my work and I've worked so hard over the last 4 Covid months. So the Rad Shop will be closed this Friday and Saturday. Have a great weekend of riding guys and gals.

09.01.2022 It was definitely a disc brake kinda day. With all the rad workshop servicing requiring some sort of Shimano disc brake parts today, which was a bit weird, but I enjoy sorting out braking issues, from bleeding to squealing brakes. The other thing is with so many of my orders being wrong or just bloody slow, I can always count on Shimano Australia in getting the order right and it getting to me in quick time. I've been dealing with these guys since 1998 and I really can't think of a time when it's been wrong, so we'll done you f'ers. #shimano #shimanoparts #shimanobrakingsystems #mtbdiscbrakes #shimanoquality #brakehoses #brakerotors #brakepads #brakebits #shimanoaustralia #radcyclery #radworkshop #since1998

09.01.2022 Isn't it great to have so many choices on BB's from Sram. OMG the bicycle industry has gone BB crazy with so many options which makes it very interesting when choosing the correct one. Thankfully Sram put out a handy PDF to explain the craziness. #bbcraziness #bbcrazy #sramcomponents #gxp #bsagxp #pressfitgxp #bb30 #pressfitbb30 #dub #pf30 #radcyclery #bottombrackets #gottaloveit #gottahaveoptions #choice #choicebro #rad #prettyinred #loveredboxes #sramred @ Rad Cyclery

09.01.2022 Now I'm pushing my luck, this is three photos, yeehah This is the O'Neal Pin It MTB jersey, with it's super lightweight feel and cool features. It's actually been one of our best sellers and I can see why. With the O'Neal range being worn by the best downhill racer ever in Greg Minnaar, I reckon it stood enough for us nobody's. #mtb #onealmtb #onealracing #onealriders #onealpinitjersey #pin #pinit #mountainbiking #wearitwithpride #becool #radcyclery #onealdealer #proudofit #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery

08.01.2022 You've gotta love that blue sky don't you. I certainly couldn't see myself living anywhere else but Sunny Queensland.

08.01.2022 OMG who likes a squeaky Giant ? I guess any Giant shouldn't squeak, so with a complete rear end removal which includes all the pivot points and of course the rear shock, it's then down to giving everything a clean. Once it's cleaned of all dirt and general grime it's onto lubing everything back up and reinstalling with all the parts in there correct place and locktite on all the threads. Shock pumped up, refit the rear caliper, derailleur and chain and test. #yeehah #nomoresqueaks a #quietgiant is a #goodgiant #giantbicycles #gianttrance #dual #dually #radworkshop #radservicing #rad #lubemachine #loveit #radcyclery #since1998 @ Rad Cyclery

07.01.2022 Now that's what I call an awesome morning for some riding. Crit racing with the Rad Team at Luke Harrop Memorial Circuit, then onto meet some customers at Bayview for some single track. #glutenforpunishment #punisher #noexcuses #twowheellife #twowheelsforlife #pedaldamnit #justkeeponpeddling #radteam #radteamracing #ridingwithmates #racehard #ridingwithgreatcustomers #hopetheygoeasy #iamoldandtired #noebikerequiredthough #goldcoastmasterscyclingclub #lukesplace #lukeharropmemorialcircuit #bayviewtrails @ Luke Harrop Memorial Criterium Circuit

05.01.2022 So after picking up this Sram PF30 bottom bracket this morning it was straight onto installing it on to this Ridley Deam Fast aero machine when I arrived at work. So as I had the old crank out, it was just a matter of pressing the BB30 cups into the frame, with my trusty Park Tool, grease the bearing faces, then it was onto fitting this magical Rotor Inpower crankset with it's wonky Oval Chainring in place. With no extra spacers required it was just tighten it up and adjust any free play with the preload ring. #rotorcranks #rotormagic #rotorovalchainring #wonkylookingmofo #awesoneidea #nodeadspot #electronicshifting #sramtimetrial #ttweaponary #sramred #blipshift #radworkshop #since1998 #echelonsports #groupesportif @ Rad Cyclery

05.01.2022 Back in the mid 90's I developed a passion for black rubber things, oh yeh tyres I'm talking about and what a different brand, style and model did to the handling and feel on my stock standard Suzuki GSXR750. It never ever felt bad as a road bike, although once I started racing at Lakeside it developed a horrible head shake as I started to get to top speed. I would imagine the commentators sitting in their stable race tower would have shit their pants as I flew past, although... a tap on the rear brake and it all settled down nicely. It wasn't ideal as I wanted to go faster, so with a few dollars spent on Ohlins Suspension and a steering damper it sort of fixed it. I then purchased a set of Pirelli Slicks and bingo, no head shake and a faster top speed and of course lap times, genius. So then when I got into cycling I kinda carried this tyre thing with me and when I look at new tyres or brands, the first thing I do is feel the rubber, checkout the tread pattern and then try and test them for the puncture resistance, as I hate punctures wrecking my precious riding. the one thing I've never worried about is how long they last, as long as they stick like shit to a blanket. So talking about the blanket thing, my Hilux Ute has been like throwing shit at a fan, it's traction is everywhere, especially in the wet. So over the years I've tried all different Brands trying to rectify the slideways style, until I came across a set of Hankooks and it's now hard to spin the sucker up in the wet, amazing transformation. So I guess tyres aren't just black rubber things, they can actually change your ride or drive, and they've gotta look good too. I've used so many brands over the years on my mountain bike, from IRC, Michelin, Hutchinson, WTB, Continental, Maxxis, Mitas and I'll soon get the chance to checkout the brand new Goodyear Peak MTB tyre thanks to PSI Cycling, I'm excited !!!!!!!

04.01.2022 If anyone is interested in a set of Maxxis Ardent Tubeless Ready tyres, we have two sets available in both 27.5" & 29" in 2.25 width. They are brand new and need to be cleared at only $100 a pair. Aggressive tread in high-volume casing, designed with great traction in mind. The Ardent doesn't forget the racer with large block-style side knobs offering numerous edges for high-speed cornering. The center tread, while ideal for braking and accelerating traction, also features ramped knobs to minimize rolling resistance. With a wide variety of size offerings, the Ardent captures every mountain rider's needs.

03.01.2022 Well, after a pretty easy morning at work, I figured I better get out on the mountain bike and do some work. So with the hottest part of the day being 2pm and about 30 degrees, it seemed perfect for a big ride. So within a few k's from home I'm into Cornubia Forest. Then using the link road out, it joins onto another link trail, which after a bit of dirt road and bitumen it's into the Bayview Conservation Area. As my mate Dennis had been out on his Jet Ski for the morning, a ...ride in the heat wasn't on his mind, although a invite for a swim and a nice cold beer on my way back was to good to pass up. It was 35k in the legs when I got there, so the pool and beer was definitely refreshing, although I didn't want to hang around too long as I still had 15k to go with a fairly decent climb to finish off called Birdwing, although it felt more like a Boeing 747 wing. #bigride #longride #oldboyride #50k #roadanddirt #radride #reallyrad #beers #beeroclock #twobeerscreamer #tooeasy #headspin #needfoodrealbad #asahi #soukai #beerisgood #realgood #candleinthewind @ Bayview Conservation Area See more

02.01.2022 So if any of you mountain bikers are needing a set of 29" wheels, either as a replacement set, a spare set or are thinking of going 12 speed, I have these Syncros XR 2.5 Wheels for sale. They come complete with 180mm Shimano Centre Lock Rotors, tubeless valves and rim tape making them tubeless ready. They are Boost, so 110 x 15 Front & 148 x 12 Rear with a Sram XD Driver for that amazing 12 speed cassette. They are in great condition with no dings or bent spokes as you would expect my gear to be. $350 ONO.

01.01.2022 So it's been a busy start to the week with a few mountain bikes that definitely need a bit of attention. As we ride in many conditions, either wet or dry it certainly plays havoc with bearings. Once our bikes get dirty or muddy enough to give them a wash the dirty water finds it's way into all the wrong places, bottom brackets and headsets. So the only way to sort this is bring it in for a service and I'll sort it out for you. #radworkshop #bikeservicing #specializedbikes #camber #scottbikes #scale #bottombrackets #headsets #rustybits #dirtybits #fixingbits #partseverywhere #rad #raceweekend #castlehill #dirtyanddusty @ Rad Cyclery

01.01.2022 Well, well, that was another big day in the Rad Workshop, with a BMX U brake to refit for a young fella, then finishing off the Focus Jam with a new driveline, including that smart looking Shimano XT 11 speed cassette on a new DT Swiss freehub body. The old one was being ripped by a Sunrace cassette and it also had a fair bit of slop due to the outer bearing wearing out. So as the supplier are currently out of stock, I had to steal the freehub from a set of wheels I have been... minding, whoops. The last job for the day was to start on this old as, Giant MTB, with those trendy aero bars fitted on a bent handlebar, aah it's a classic. Anyway with new bars and a few other bits, it actually has come up pretty good for the customer. As this was just a spare bike for the customer, he wasn't in as hurry and has been preferring to ride his new Victory motorcycle. #radworkshop #workasusual #workinghard #bigdayinlittletanah #allworknoplay #itsrad #radas #bmxbikes #bmx #dtswisswheels #shimanoparts #goodshit #bicycleservicing #radservicing #bicyclerestoration #focusjam #notinajam #giantvintage #beeroclock #trainertime @ Rad Cyclery See more

01.01.2022 Some Rad Team photos from the new Ormeau Motorway Crit circuit. It was a bloody horrible day for cycling, cold and windy, although the new circuit is a good little circuit, although definitely not as fun as Luke Harrop Memorial. It was a 7am start, although 8am would have been better due to a Gym on the circuit with a session at the same time, so traffic was an issue once it had finished, otherwise it was good. There was only Mark & I braving the shit weather and as I wanted to warm up, I decided to put the pressure on early to shake off the wheel suckers then just cruise around until the end, leaving Mark to sprint for the line.
