Duct tape, zip ties and sunny mornings

Posted on by

Sounds like the start of some freaky crime novel thingy, right?
Well it’s not, just the state of my bike and the weather this morning, the back wheel of my hybrid trekking bike, the occano, has been loosing spokes left and right, the rim is now untrue in all directions to.
So I ordered a new wheel, but since the weather is so frigging awesome now, I couldn’t resist to bike, right?
Solution, duct tape and zip ties, easy “fix”, just zip tie the loose spokes to some that aren’t, add a little duct tape and hope for the best, at least it’s just about two days left before my new wheel comes, and then another two weeks or so before my new bike arrives!

Anyhow, did the longer ride to work today, some icy patches, but overall pretty ok!
