Yeah it was an old chain `i wish i could say too much power`

How'd it go?

New chain works well.. and its 32x18 now..
Thanks for your help given us a few options to play with now, might even try putting double cog on it all depends on wether i can get enough chain tension..

Duel speed

Has anyone on here been able to mount say an 18 and a 20 sprocket on rear of their single speed.

Saw a SS with this set up at Dirtworks 100k woodend.

My SS uses an EBB, thinking if I could mount a 18 & 20 and have enough range of chain adjustment, perfect, 18 = commute, 20 = hill training.

I run a 32 / 34 up front and a 18 / 16 out the back. Gives me a flat off road or commuter gear and a gear for the hills. Not SS pure but i need this bike to do everything for me and f*ck the purists.
Same chain length so no need to change anything.

Works for me

Radelaide is GO, those kids are just trying to wrestle for a date.

The fine folk at Coopers wanted to be onboard again and seeing as it's their home game, we should be able to try for 3 at a time all weekend

yeah, second half maybe

 

[Anti_Trainer]

yeah, second half maybe

First half of the second half or the other half of the last half?

 

[QZ13]

First half of the second half or the other half of the last half?

lets say first half of that half but could end up the other half

 

[Anti_Trainer]

lets say first half of that half but could end up the other half

So not the half of the half I was originally thinking then?

I don't do no half or quarters.

New wheels, SS specific rear hub *excited*

 

[Anti_Trainer]

So just an eighth for you then sir?

 

[QZ13]

Yes there'll be a quarters round robin

No eighths, numbers confuse me. I. Am. A. Singlespeeder.
