The "What did you buy today?" thread...

[Doom!]

That was a nice score, I keep wanting another bike.

 

[Tunedfrog]

Yes, this was an awesome score and my search is over. I was going to buy a Diamondback anyway and I found this.
It had a busted spoke and a rear flat tube but I went ahead and put the new wheels on it and already had a new tube.
I love it..

My favorite bike as a kid was my Diamondback. It was the envy of all the neighborhood kids. I built it from parts I found. The last thing I put on it was actual Diamondback heavy duty spoked wheels. I used to do some really crazy stuff on that bike.

 

[Tunedfrog]

I can't do what I used to do because my legs just don't hold me up very well anymore. I wanted a full suspension bike because I ride easy trails and mostly sit while I ride.
I wanted a Diamondback so I am thrilled.

 

[WickedFog]

I didn't even know they were still in business. That sure is an awesome find.

 

[Tunedfrog]

This is an older Diamondback but works for me. At least I won't show up at the bike park with a WM special.

Been buying crawler parts, my Rs4 has been cranky. I hope the steering rack helps. horrible I know!

Mr Pickles had me go into a bad area for a bannana. Also got 10.2 AR44 locker, blue links amd trx mini parts.

Must obey Mr. Pickles!

Must obey Mr. Pickles!

He trains me. Hes not afraid to go hands on either. I guess I'm pu$$y whipped. My first 6 months I had slices and punctures all over my hands.

More heli parts and a MIP driver for these damn Align Trex 1.3mm screws. They only provide one driver and you need two for the feathering shaft on the T15.

So my new Rock Pirates frame rails showed up this afternoon. Now to sneak them into the house in my lunch box..... looks like there might be a new build on the horizon...... SCX10.2 or Element based... hmmm.

Good to hear I'm not the only one sneaking packages in.

 

[Doom!]

Anything under $200.00 I'm ok, if it's over that I have to clear it with she who must be obeyed.

work with family. No place is safe! Just gotta have options..... empty pocket or unlocked truck works wonders.

Lower case rails
Front upper plate

I have three of my fingers squeezed together in the upright position, can you read between the lines?
