Bought diff bearings and axle seals for my truck. My nephew and I are installing a LS diff in my truck next week.

You bet. Worked with him at Bow in 2010.

It's got some expense shimano brakes ($100 a wheel), not sure what the name of them are, and a nice specialized saddle.

BTW, does anyone know if the wheels on this Fox are better than the Mavic Aksium wheels on the 2010 Jake the Snake?

Not a fan of the KD's or the lebrons but those colors are sooooo sweet!
My brother is a huge lebron fan. He just bought a pair of those all star lebrons too. Paid alot over sticker on kijiji hahaha. The shoe is hard to take a good picture of it, but in person it looks 100x better!

Finally got my drose broken in yesterday. They are awesome to play in! Love them so far.

The pictures of the Lebrons didn't look all too appealing but when I saw them in person it was amazing.
The Sprintframe on the right shoe of the 2.5s dig into my feet. Gotta fix that up then they should be pretty good.

Which one? There are two there. The 2.5 was from Foot Locker but the other ones I ordered online. The others were from both Champs and Foot Locker.

Neighbour was about to toss this in the dump...

Sweet oldschool 6/12v battery charger I couldn't let him do that...


May not ever use it, but it'll look good in the garage once it's cleaned up... Google tells me Gamages is almost like a european version of sears robuck...

Apparently I'm on a spending spree today

Yep - it works Albeit stuck on CBC, but I'm sure I can fix that...

Both wheels are pretty comparable. (Nothing crazy high end by any stretch).
But i have the RS10's on my CAAD9, and have had zero issues with them. As well, from my perspective, ive never seen any major defects with them.
The aksium on the other hand HAS sealed bearings, so that is definitely a plus, however, the spokes are a bitch to find if you ever break one.

So like i said, both very very comparable.
You'll like the RS10s though dude.

I ask because I can swap wheels with my sisters 2010 Jake the Snake...

haha... gotcha.

Well, either way you're not going to notice any difference in riding quality/plushness/stiffness/weight etc...

So id say its really not worth the effort to exchange literally $300 wheels for $350 wheels (Mavic's)

But your call.
Spokes are much more convenient to replace on the RS10s, the aksiums are a little bit nicer

EDIT: To be straight with you, its like comparing a base line OE Corolla and a civic. Both are decent, but neither really have anything on the other. Neither are crazy high-performance either.

I like dem vans.

Finally got around to spiffing up the bedroom a bid. $700 later at bed bath & beyond (duvet, pillows, Ipod dock), and $100 for the prints, and $175 for the bed side table, and a $15 bottle of white wine to get me through the assembly and pic mounting and it's done for a little while.

I also b0ught a $15 pass to watch a supra make 1100whp at TX2k, and $20 to see a GTR do a 360 on the drag stip and a supra to 7.8 at 176mph. Worth it.
