Yup. On a worn chainring, teeth would be pointier, or even somewhat hook-shaped. You would also see a tiny bit of aluminum bulging on either side of most teeth on a worn chainring. And a new chain would be noisy and just feel kinda ****ty while pedaling on a worn chainring.

Yea the chainrings I had before on the KHS didnt have the ramps on the teeth, so I didnt know what I was looking at.
Thanx guise.

Today I discovered the purpose of the little D-ring on the side of my mess bag: stabilizer strap.

Eureka! No more shifty bag action.

Ok, Just to make sure, what looks like wear, is actually supposed to be there?

When the teeth all start to look like this you get a new ring

Today I went through classes, did a little running around on the bike, and hung around the apartment. Then I went and signed up my indoor soccer team and played some pickup for two hours with a group of friends and a bunch of saudi kids who showed up. My feet hurt, my legs are sore, and I really don't want to go to class tomorrow. Hooray being done at noon. Its going to be in the 50's all weekend, so getting mileage in is a must. As soon as it stops raining.

ESL Saudi students? I bet they're on a "cultural mission" scholarship from KSA. Half our ESL student population at Cal State L.A. is Saudi. That's true for a LOT of schools throughout the U.S. right now.

We have a bigger population of chinese/korean and Indian students than from any of the arab countries. I will say though, those guys were all really cool, and a blast to play with/against. And they know how to ****ing play.

lol, but you shouldn't trust me

I ****ing give up on pedalroom. Trolling there isn't even fun because everyone speaks broken English.

Scrodzilla 01-11-13 04:23 PM

I've come to hate PedalRoom and don't even look at it anymore. I'm never bored enough to even waste my time on that **** stain of a forum.

FakeFuji 01-11-13 05:08 PM

I know it shouldn't make me mad, but these little ****ers riding DF3's on the street oughta get slapped in the nuts.

I was expecting something more disturbing, like this.

Yeah, the guys out here formed a soccer club. They're crazy about soccer, as well as Playstation 3 and hashish.

Fun commute today. Also, good thing I checked the seat post, was starting to seize in the frame. Since there was ten tons of extra post, I simply cut about 5" off of it, which still left plenty to safely have it at the height I need it and enough sticking in the frame.

hairnet 01-11-13 08:14 PM

I would move over to Velobase but I'm too lazy to redo my bikes.

NateRod 01-11-13 09:23 PM

Went bowling. Sucked at it, as I always have.

Spoonrobot 01-11-13 09:34 PM

Today I found out I have a strained tendon in my left shin (from ****ing running, of all things). Going to miss one race and a week/week and a half of riding.

#somanytears.

Dannihilator 01-11-13 09:40 PM

It's a good thing to rest it. A strain can get much worse.
