You don't need to drink more. Save the money and the aggrivation and just buy bike parts with the money you might have spent on alcohol.

It's still a waste of money.

I can't stand my bike without a chain... it takes forever to get anywhere and I bash my legs on my stem.

Whats a waste of money?

If he has the cash, and wants to do it it isnt a waste. Hell, I have a BMX with a freecoaster for ****s and kicks that I built with some spare parts. Although I still had to go out and buy some parts, it wasnt a waste.

Eh, to me I think alcohol is a complete waste. It's a chemical that you put in your body and it's a horrible thing that just completely impairs yourself. It's stupid and you can definitely have fun without it. That is my 2 cents.

Say that after you get drunk for the first time. I used to be the same way.

Depending on how long after he got drunk it was, he probably would say it... if he woke up with a hangover for instance.

I don't have anything against alchohol/drugs, but I just don't use them right now. I don't have much self discipline, so I would get addicted to anything, and at this point that would be a terrible idea..

You can't get drunk if you never drink.

Well I got my sprocket off. I just took the left arm off and took it off like it was a 2 piece crank. I painted the sprocket white and it looks so dope, I'll post pics soon.

Yep, alcohol can be bad, but there are many more worse chemicals that people put into their bodies...and I like my PBR's, High Life's, Premium's & Black Label's.

Rubber mallet or hammer and a block of wood.


You probably need some oil as well to get into the arm/spindle interface to get it loose.

GREASE it when you put them back on.

Good luck.

I already did it... The right side arm is basicaaly stuck on there for good unless I use some kind of machine to separate it from the spindle. I don't mind though, it's not hard to just take off the left arm and pull it out like a 2 pc crank. And obviously grease is a must... everyone already knows that.

I don't drink soda. I'm just saying that alcohol isn't good for you in any shape or form.

So you don't have pesticides on your food? And you don't have any growth horomones? Why add more bad stuff to your system?
