quotes oh if its a 9 speed hub with a singlespeed converter on its almost definitely chainline, just play around with the spacers until its almost dead cetnre, a half link chain won't fall off easy unless the chains really wonky

quotes haha carnage. get a set of chaintugs in the back for perfect alignment, more trouble than theyre worth those crazy sliding dropouts

tombikess commented under holyrider3's photo ( 20 hours ago )
quotes half links are no stronger or weaker than full links, just easier to set up because you can shorter the chain in smaller increments than you can with a full link chain. They are heavier though, a properly put together chain will take a hell of a lot of force to snap so shouldnt have thought either would be a problem if joined correctly. as for chain skipping off, sounds like the BB/chainring/rear sprocket needs adjusting for better chainline!

quotes yeah if a bike like that is too light itd ride poo anyway

tombikess commented under DownhillWillSmith's photo ( Apr 25, 2012 at 10:18 )
quotes yeah my pitch was 30lbs, which is like 13kg so i think itll be more than that

tombikess commented under DownhillWillSmith's photo ( Apr 25, 2012 at 9:51 )
quotes haha not its not ben, 12 pounds is 5kg, if your road bike weighs that much its illegal to race it ;), 12kg is light though, surprised its not nearer 14..! which is 33lbsish
