Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I still think it's pretty ******** to throw a top-tube protector on a bike with bullhorns.

Of course, you both realise that using either of these types of bars does NOT mean that they won't hit the top-tube.

how can you even see the chain tension from that pic?
i'll check her chain tension next time i see her bike, i'm sure it's fine and that bike doesn't really belong in this thread.

Its a trick of the eyes, the line youre seeing on the other side of the wheel is the frame, not the chain.
Tension is fine.

Here we are.
Black lines follow frame.
Red lines follow chain.

Picture still not working...
balls.
Try a link I guess.

I thought this happened already on like page 50. Are we running out of jackass things so badly that we need to go over the same stuff again?

I bought some rub-on decals at the dollar store and a bottle of rye from the LCBO so I will drink the bottle and then add the decals to my GT. I guess it will go drink, sticker, drink, sticker, drink, sticker, drink, sticker, drink, sticker, and then I will take some photos, provided I am able to operate a camera at this point in time. Stay tuned.
