anyway.
i've been riding it 52x15 for the entire time. my legs are pissed.. riding up the williamsburg bridge is a pain in the ass...
but it definately has its benefits.... It keeps me at pace with or faster than traffic when i need it (specifically the sprint down delancey to the bridge).. but i went ahead and bought a 17t cog...
needless back story... here is the problem at hand.
in trying to unscrew the 15t, i've broken two chainwhips. the freakin' thing wont move.
any ideas?
you need to come down off the 52T and use 49T you will love it and you won't pay later for it! Ask you knees about it!
Put it in a vise to take it off.

CEYA!
