God I'm such a spanner, drilled loads of holes in the second skin of rim, lightened it by 200g result.
go to the next stage, Big hole cutter, to make it really light and the Flinkingbastarddrillthingymebobbins snapped causing the hole cutter to mangle the rim beyond all repair. It looks like a flippin grizzly bear has been chewing it. 🙁
I'm not normally such a duffhanded tosser, but I really have outdone myself!
new one on the way and this time I'll give to a nice man who can make a decent job of it.
I'm hanging up all my tools and never touchin anything bike related ever again.

go on go on go on 🙂
Can we get this moved to the bike forum please? 🙂
Is this a bad time to remind you about sorting my lovely white industries wheels out on the lynskey,,,gulp 😕
DD is my buffoonery bike related? No, i'm just a flippin tit!
LOL at the shame. Felt the same many a time.
Pop Lynskey is sitting there waiting for you, if you want to drop the wheel over tomorrow. Does have a big dent in it though where a lump hammer seemed to fly across the workshop. must have a poltergeist or somefink
tazzy, it's clearly bike related buffoonery. 😛
I've reported your post. You should expect some time in the cooler. 😀
only joking pop (now that you've no doubt just done a small poo of fear) 😆

*shrugs* story of my life 😐
You'll feel much betterer if you show us all pictures of your drill based ****upery.
SSS- you are a nasty man to revel in my pain and suffering. I'll get you at playtime for that!
Defo need to show photos matey- it will ease your pain Im sure!
Will drop wheels off tomoz if thats ok
Will drop wheels off tomoz if thats ok
unless i've ended it all by sitting in a pile of 29er wheels with one around my neck waiting for inevitable explosion to decapitate me.
You could use the pictures as a kind of warning about the dangers of using hole saws.
It's your duty to do it.
Buy a drilled rim?
See I told you its not easy being fat!!
Buy a drilled rim?
even with mangling this one and havin to buy another 80mm, it's still cheaper than a surly rolling daryl. If I hadn't been a complete fknuts it would have been massively cheaper 😳
I can't believe people can't do simple jobs like this....
shocking.
in fact this has sullied the entire fat experience for me, I shall sell all my incoming fat rubber and rims and then point and laugh at fat bikers safe in the knowledge that I'm normal
Poor Tazzy. 😥
Please don't be sad, Tazzy. here's a nice song to cheer you up:
I can't believe people can't do simple jobs like this....
If the sodding pilot drill hadn't snapped it would have been a simple job.
still at least I now know the heady height of my incompetence. 😆
I'm kidding Tazzy - SSS will be along shortly to remind me of my own incompetence...
thanks elfin

You'd never f*** anything up trying to repair/replace/bodge it would you mate. 😆
