Pardon me, I need to go do a quick SS conversion to my commuter bike. Even though I have the parts around to fix it.

The rear derailleur seized while on the drive across Canada and I need a bike to get around. A nice simple one with few parts to fail in the salty, dirty, Ottawa winter.



Lucky for me I love riding bicycles of all kinds so I think I'll still be able to have a good time. And I won't have to worry about maintaining my drivetrain, not that I did much of that on this bike anyway.




Edit: Gears aren't that hard to understand. But I want to understand how mechanical things work. Some people don't want to understand mechanical things though, just as I don't want to understand just how movies are made. They just want to ride, I just want to watch. suum cuique.


Can we clog this thread with SS pics now?
