i didn't take any pictures because i was in a hurry but

i swapped out the bearings in the frornt week of the project bike and at first i was all "the left side looks okay but this right side looks _terrible_" and then i was cleaning off all the oil and was like "well shit now they all look about the same, I _guess_ there was something wrong because the wheel spins way better on the stand now but" and that's when I noticed little silver flakes in the paper towel i was using to hold and clean them

that's bad right

xD

(seriously it was rumbly and would spin less than a full revolution in what i think of as a normal test spin and now it just goes for a while ^_^ )
