WDYBLL

and yeah i totally need some cranks!

wait

I have cancer.

no! i'm really sorry to hear this :(

135? cant remember

*hopes hunt3r forgets google*

reading someone who posts in full sentences with caps and punctuation is refreshing in this joint soviet.

i know shimano is 130 tho

hey what r u sayin

How does the Campy vintage Super Record chainring bolt spacing and chainring-size availability compare to the vintage Campy C-record? That is the test, gentlemen. I have made it easy for you and please forgive if it takes me a few days to respond.

Oh cancer gives you total absolution about bad hair days at work, bad clothes days too. I work in a corporate environment and am playin' it for all it's worth, so don't feel too bad for me. I get to dress like the janitor (and rock the new Annie Lennox hairway) which makes me happy. Look for me on the next WDYLL if I can figure out how to post a pic.

PS. What is this "Shimano" you speak of ?

;)

Thxs Hunt3r. I like your commuter bike.

My Campy chainring bolt spacing is 116 ;)

Turn that hot beyotch around so we can see the drivetrain, or maybe that's what caek and cozwn already said, I'm retarded.

they said WOULD SMASH, WOULD RIDE

funnily enough I got offered one of those for free (!!) from a friend at work but it was far too massive for me :(

smash meaning "go on a date with, maybe to a french place in the village", not smash destroy.

ride meaning "take it easy with, gliding along country paths in the glassy winter air", not a sex thing.

sorry, another non-drive train shot

picked it up from the shop today - if i could find camera i'd have pix. daresay i won't be needing another road bike for a long time, so awesome. light but solid if you know what i mean.

i am not liking the (speedplay) pedals i got, however. they're the light action model and there's just too much play for my liking.

here is my bike that i found in the garbage one morning and have been riding the shit out of, dudes

I've joined the club, guys. Got such a good deal on it off Craiglist that I worried it might be stolen. Now I just have to get rid of my Diamondback mtn monster.

what means these: "bum bars", or "dui bars"?

flipping yr bars like that is an urban signifier meaning "destitute" or "I lost my drivers license. again"

how so? i am not making much money, but dudes it's mad comfy that way

oh and i never had a drivers license

nice, whiney!

dude, it is a ~stereotype~

Uh, I assume that's directed at me, cozen. Curse this name; i chose it before i was aware of the hyperposting mr. we¡ng@rten.

oh shi-! ha, sorry, didn't even notice. nice bike

in shakedown trim. the rear wheel gap is comical. the bb/massive downtube is seriously stiff, i could not make it rub at all.

...rub?

and yeah that gap is lol

bikes that are soft will often have the chain rub/grind on the f. derailler if you sprint hard, esp in the big ring. nowadays with big al and carbon frames, this does not happen too much i guess.

i need a new inner ring, like a 42.
