Bike Part Bidness

Picked up some goodies a few days ago from… get this… Amazon. Let it be known I have never ordered a thing from Amazon, ever. First time yo! And the best part is I didn’t even click on my own link to get credit on my affiliate account (dumbshit!)

Anywhoo, I picked up a new chain, seat post clamp and a huge black… water bottle (the shit was only $2.99!!)

Spank Tweet Tweet Chain

The chain is a Spanky’s Tweet Tweet chain, I got the black one. It looks tough, has half links and is black. It looks really black like that stuff foot ball players but under their eyes or burnt cork. That being said I’m hoping that the chain looks like the one in the above pic with something of a thick black coat of paint rather than being anodized like the red and blue. Maybe the black is also anodized and it just looks better who knows. Either way my bike has been doing me well for over 9 months so it deserves a little love.

Surly Constrictor

Next is this hefty hefty seat post clamp. The Surly Constrictor is friggin massive and flat black so I’m down. I’m super into hefty, I want my bike to be a tank. Flat black everything is the way to go. I read around before buying it and it’s a good clamp if you are a fat ass and you keep pushing your seat down or if you are not a fat ass and your seat is sliding down on it’s own. I don’t really have any problems with my seat post slipping but my current clamp is dying, it is wound very tight and the screw is sticking out of it even though there is no exit hole for it. It’s a P.O.S. and needs to replaced so this part will be greatly appreciated.

water bottle

Lastly for no reason other than the fact that it was $2.99 I picked up this massive 28 oz water cannon! I believe a regular old bottle is like 11 oz so this thing is over twice the size. Really, I don’t ever see myself needing that much hydration. While the thought of aiming a massive bottle at my face while on the road is pretty awesome I really bought it because the lid on my hot pink bottle has bitten the dust and I think I can take the black one off of this one and apply it to the pink one. If toy collecting has taught me anything it’s that you can make some plastic do just about anything you want if you hit it with a hair dryer for a little bit.

And a good bye treat, if you don’t think this is funny I don’t wanna know you. I apologize if the skanky pizza girl is offending to you but I found it more appealing Howard Sterns stunning visage.
