I've lost some weight and my Chain doesn't want to sit on my hips anymore so it's a ***** carrying it around. We stoped by Ameoba in Berkeley and i left it out there for maybe 15 minutes tops.Then i threatened all the junkies at the park a block away and a random guy that was crouched down near my cranks. Apparently he was locked nearby and was "putting his cd in his bag" but i had a funny feeling about him. Angry Terror with a U-lock is no one to be ****ed with. The excitement of building new wheels is ensuing but there is a part of me that won't let go, i am convinced i can recover them and am just as excited to smash someone's face in, including ink1373.
laughing at someone's loss is pretty funny.
Your chain doesn't fit? You can always latch it several links shorter than the actual chain. When I put mine on, I lock it about five links from the end so I get a nice snug fit.
