New 20″ Hub parts arrived today

To my surprise the Onyx Hub parts arrived today from the US and they didn’t get held hostage in the post office like they usually do which was a bonus!

This means that I can now get the rear onyx hub for my 20″ built up so I now only need to get a 44t chain ring, a brake set and some grips and I will have all the parts to build the 20″ up. I was going to get the frame sprayed but I think that I will leave it white for now to save some money and speed up the build.

I will get the axle swapped out over the weekend then look at getting a chain ring and other stuff next week.

I am taking the day off today as I am on call and have to go out for a meal after work so I will have to make up for this in the morning. I am planning to get up early and try and get into the gym and start working my legs out. I will then get to the track early to test out my leaf blower on the start hill to try and get it a bit grippier before gates in the early afternoon.

At gates I am going to do a more structured session of a warmup followed by one gate and 1st straight, a gate and 1st and second straight, gate and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd straights and then a gate and a full speed lap then rest a bit and do the same again. After that I will work on my manuals on the 3rd and 4th straights then play on the jump bike a bit to cool down.
