I felt sorry for Belinda, they had a breakin on Friday night, nearly everything was stolen. Sound Equipment, prizes, etc. The spot prizes were donations that they received when people heard about the breakin. Even the farmers store was broken into and the dog was poisoned.
Been doing some reading on the internet, I guess I am what they call a chain masher, when I ride in events I change my gears a lot and use the whole cassette from the middle chain ring instead of trying to keep the chain as straight as possible. When I ride in Carletonville as the area is relatively flat I hardly change my gears.
There is a tool which I had lend from my LBS every now and again to check the chain, have a great relationship with them. That is when I discovered the distance when I started keeping record of the distances that I ride
Hi, I have gor two mountain bikes, A Giant Terrago 2010 model and a Giant Trance X4 2012 Model. I find that the chains need replacing at around 1200km for the Terrago but for the Trance it is around 700km I mainly use the Terrago for my training rides during the week and over the weekends I do one or other MTB event with the Trance. I am curious about the large difference in the km that I achieve on the chains between the bikes.
