I just test rode a triple recently......after doing so I realize most of you are full of s****. The damn thing shifts fine.
Mechanical glitches? Sure, Maybe if you are doing the adjusting yourself and you don't know what the hell you are doing.
Sydney was right all along. If you can't make a triple work.......maybe you need to take it to a real mechanic.
Wow! Revelation! Does that mean us older riders can come out of the triple closet?
Whatever your past, Brett 12, under whatever guise, this post does more to preserve knees and cycling enthusiasm than any other on this list -- especially among 25+ riders.
And it even validates sydney!
