ha... i've resolved that i'll just stick with my gear set and put my slick tires back on (i switched to some conti top contact ii winter tires for a few weeks of sporadic snow here in st louis... crazy weather here. 4 inches of snow in morning. gone by afternoon. wish i hadn't splurged on tires almost).

skewer jacked = severely bent.

so... i rebuilt my bottom bracket again because of crank jiggling (they both jiggle).

discovered that one of the ball bearing cages was looser than the other (during my initial work, i had bought replacement for just one side because i didn't realise that when replacing bearings you should overhaul all of them not just the one that was mauled)..

so.. bearings an issue probably.

also noticed a fracture line on the threading of the chain-side bottom bracket cup/race..

does this warrant a replacement of the bottom bracket assembly?
