Damn dirty spokes

Uff…finally finished.

My budget is tight, so instead of replacing old, dirty, rusted spokes from the rear wheel with new ones I decided to try and clean them. There are 32 spokes in a wheel. Cleaning and polishing one spoke took me about one hour. You do the math. 

A month spent on working with the spokes really taught me the definition of persistence. I thought it would never be over. And there is a lesson for the future – I’ll probably never do that job again – it takes too much time to get a satisfying effect.

But I’m finished and ready to go on! Stay updated :]

    1. Klucz w tym, że nie. Zapiekły się na amen. Rozplecione pewnie dało by się wyczyścić w ciągu 1-2 dni.
