Word. Yeah. Throw that puppy in your bag for when we all finally get to race/meetup at Kissena. Thanks.

I guess I just wonder what warrants changing a chain. I've read about messengers needing to throw out their chains every few weeks because they're so hard on them. Maybe that's untrue, or an exaggeration, but I have heard that and if that's true, then I'm long overdue b/c I've certainly put far more mileage on my chain than a messenger would in a couple of months. Most of my riding is city riding.

I mean, I feel like probably 90% of the bike riding pop. will never change the chain that originally came on their bike unless it breaks or becomes non-functional.

... I probably should of posted this in the mechanics forum, but, you know how it is...

PS - Spud, my chain is slacker than Troy Dyer.
