Half-fixie bionx? 2
Submitted by han on Thu, 11/06/2008 - 19:18
So. During an apartment move to a bigger but half price crib i lost the 48tooth chainring i got like 4 months ago.
During some major rummaging i found it under a bunch of dvds Finally! Right away took the ring and ride to Revolution Cycles before forgetting again. ended up leaving the front derailleur on as a chain guide for now. The result is total perfect cadence compared to before . Dogman's comment had me concerned about not being able to ride hill if the
motor died . I tested this and the 24 cog was suitable for this hilly area with 0 assist. So far so Good :)

My problem with the hill is it is 6 miles long. I'm waitin on delivery of a 58 tooth ring that is supposed to fit a mountain bike crank. If it fits it will be perfect if I ever get a 5304. It should peadle pretty comfy at 35 mph. Even on the downhills I still like to peadle. You might like to leave the front deraliur on. I'm having some problems with the chain jumping off on big bumps. Just another thing about going so fast at all times.

58 tooth eh ? Nice. I was thinking about a chain tensioner but it would weigh the same
as the fr.derailleur ,plus add unwanted bling for thieves. Like to see pictures of the bike when u get the 58 tooth on. I'm curious about frame clearance .
