Happy Mother’s Day Mom! I love you and miss you more than you know. Thank you for everything 😘 . . . . This pic is from the 1984 Olympic Torch Relay and taken at Temescal Canyon and PCH. The gentleman running the relay (dude in the middle) ran from where the pic was take to the #sunspot which was an exact mile (I guess each runner in the relay ran a mile 🤷‍♂️). If anyone can tell me what the sunspot was I will laugh out loud and give a 10% discount on any future wheel purchase 🔥😎😱 #happymothersday #chubbydiablo #pelon
Gotta post something before the months up! Here is some of the good stuff @whiteind T11 laced to an #archetype with crossed Cxrays😱💥😎💪 . . . . . #savetherimbrake #wheelbuilder #builttolast #wheelbuilding #handbuiltwheels #t11 #diablowheelworks #yesssirrr
Time for the once a month post and what better than a few of my favorites: the @astralcycling #wanderlust and the @noblewheels #lacingjig. This fun and strong build is for @elysianbikeco who’s going to crush some #dirtykanza miles on his custom rig riding these hoops 💪🏽💥 . . . . . #morninglight #calmbeforethestorm #handbuiltwheels #lacingdaysarehereagain #customisking #diablwheelworks #wheelbuilding
It’s time for the monthly post and a friendly reminder to please check #underthehood once in a while 😉 . . . . . #rust #corrosion #seized #sweat #unicorntears #mechaniclife #diablowheelworks #cheetodust
Time for my monthly post and please don’t forget to service your hubs 🙏💥 The health of hubs are usually an afterthought yet without them you can’t roll. Diablo is always here to help 🤘💪😎 . . . . . #hubservice #chriskingbuzz #mtblife #bikemechanic #diablowheelworks #lasucksforcycling
A little bit of #weightweenie building with some some Extra High Polish Shine 💡☀️😉What a way to end 2018💥😎! A big thank you to @fairwheel for all the help with the rims and hubs for the build: Easton R90sl/Carbon Ti SP road. In tru weight weenie fashion removing the decals got these puppies down to an even 1350g 👀🤓💥 . . . . . #happynewyear #solight #brightasthesun #wheelbuilding #handbuiltwheels #customisking #tolegittoquit #diablowheelworks
I decided it was a good idea to learn how to read a book again 🤓What better book to use other than #thehitchhikersguidetothegalaxy 💥😎😂🙏 . . . . . #douglasadams #42 #readabook #jumpstartthebrain #notjusttech #wordsonpaper #readforfun #itwillsetyoufree #diablowheelworks
So this beauty came in last week for some new rims. The customer no longer wanted to deal with the Mavic GL330 tubulars and we went with the H+Son TB14 in hard ano gray. To say the least the bike gained a few grams but haven’t we all over the years 🤣😎. A fun fact: it is the Vitus 979 (in blue) that made me fall in love with bicycles all the way back in 1983 when I was 9 years old. This bicycle was and still is the epitome of style, at least for my crossed eyes 💥 . . . . . #vitus979 #classicroadbike #style #duraace #sis #12speed #baaw #diablowheelworks
A long over due post and more importantly a huge shout out of gratitude to Mr. Jonny Bell @noblewheels 🤘🔻Thank you for this wonderful lacing jig. My low back thanks you as well 😎 . . . . . #thingofbeauty #wheelbuilding #noblewheels #lacingjig #handbuilt #longtimenopost #diablowheelworks
