RockCoach Posted April 10, 2014 Share Few things in life are as frightening as the moment when you are out of the saddle swinging the bike like crazy and cranking and sprinting out of the saddle from a start and your chain comes off on your SS ...... turns out I got lucky, bit battered on and lost a bit of skin on the inside of my knee Hasn't happened to me on my SS yet but 2 months ago broke my brand new 10 speed chain while sprinting out the saddle for a jump. I must have been doing 35km/h and then I overtook the bike out the front door . Thank goodness for long Spruit grass this time of year. Only bruised knees on handlebars.

hboli4 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Verry nice! What chain is that and where can I get one? Thanks Pieter. It is a Taya Singlespeed Chain, got it from CWC in Jan. They have some listed on the site but doesn't seem to have halflink in stock at the moment. Edited April 14, 2014 by hboli4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanbean Posted April 14, 2014 Share Thanks!!! Had so much fun building it I just want to build another one...Like it, thats tbe problem with doing a bike build. It's like drugs, you satisfy the urge and it goes away for a bit. But watch out when it returns????????I constantly fiddle with my build, it's now doing duty as a 10sp machine, but I got the urge to rebuild it today, so it may be a SS again by the end of the week. I'm looking at some green bits from Superstar to put on it. I need a wider handle bar????

I've got a 90mm overdrive stem, so I can't go too wide. If only I could get a 50mm OD stem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just took a look at the Super Star site again and for around the R650 mark it seems you can get a decent set of bars to Cape Town.... still searching though.....
