I may be totally wrong about this...

but doesn't an 8sp chain (assuming it's 3/32 since you specified 8sp) allow for more flex in chainline rather than a 1/8th chain that's less forgiving?

If that is the case, I don't think it's safe to assume your customers will be using a road chain, but more likely a 1/8 track chain.

BTW, I to me it's doesn't seem like anyone was calling you guys out (although I do realize you guys get a lot of unnecessary flak), It seemed more like a heads up.

I actually love some of the stuff you guys put out, especially the different bar shapes. And like anything, you learn over time, it's not always perfect the 1st time, but at least you guys keep moving forward. Like I said above, I think you guys get a lot of unnecessary s**t- for reasons not worth getting into in this thread. Just do me one favor PLEASE change your logo/identity! Hell, I'll do it for you pro bono.
