Okay, so its that time to throw some more money at my bike. The frame was an ebay special I nabbed for 60.00 last year and the parts are almost all from a lowend FS bike I had about 3 years. All of them have had their fair share of use (and abuse) and they are starting to show their age. The brakes are on their last leg, the hubs have already been rebuilt once, the wheels are out of true and aren't worth the time/efforts to fix...

So, time for an entire rebuild.
