Disregard the angry foamer/shipfag/whatever

/n/ is for bicycles

>>950816
I agree that /n/ is for bicycles, but since this is the slowest board on earth there's no need to start new threads for questions that have a place of their own in the BQG thread.
Polite sage, please redirect question and delete.

you mean downtubing? the first time I saw someone called a downtube it was kind of funny but everything is "downtubing" or "downtubed" now

>>950007
The SI faggot is a fucking downtube.
>>950012
Once the hype dies down, it will be less frequent and more just a natural part of discourse on /n/.

OP is a downtuber

Who is going to use this? Flyover country is cager country, unless you can make it from your home to the downtown terminal without getting arrested for the crime of not getting around town in your single-occupancy vehicle, that thing is going to be exclusively used by business travelers who have reasons to go to denver, which amounts to I imagine about twelve people a week.

Because they are fun to ride and work on. They're simple and low maintenance. They're usually, not always, cheaper to build up for comparable quality components. Did I mention that they are just fun?

As it happens, Saint Sheldon had something to say
http://www.sheldonbrown.com/singlespeed.html

Because your chain doesn't slap around when you jump curbs, and because you can throw it on the ground on the drivetrain side without worrying about a bent RD. Among a lot of other things.

depends how straight i ride, between 53:19 and 53:14

my single speed has a 46-16 ratio, I find it suitable everywhere except the mountains.

flatland speed usually averages about 26 km/h.. pretty slow

>>954500
One more year of Jr ratio
Just trying to decide between 44-11 or 52-14

>I'm even faster at getting your number. Name's Chad by the way.

She'd have slipped on my spaghetti trail and eat asphalt while I ride off obliviously.

Claw spanner or a dedicated tool.

Bad idea. You're not supposed to re-use master links more than a few times (and some styles you're not even supposed to re-use once).
If you want something more than just a lock, try removing the saddle, or using some really lightweight lock to wrap through the spokes or something (something like this; I use one to lock my panniers to my rack http://www.evo.com/locks/dakine-micro-lock.aspx )

Yeah the thief will totally not steal your bike if it doesn't have a $15 chain on it. Totally.

At least here thieves don't usually ride the bikes they steal. They grab the bike and put it in a van that is waiting somewhere and off they are.

I doubt most of them would even notice there isn't a chain on the bike.

I store my bikes in indoors so that they're comfy when not being used. It's a well proven fact that bikes that get to rest in comfy, warm, dry indoors are faster than bikes that are neglected by their owners and left outside.

If I for some reason need to leave my bike outside I bring my trusty old bike that isn't worth much.

I use a mechanically perfect bike, but it looks crappy, old and dirty. Moroccans dont have a keen eye for that kind of stuff. I lock it with a pic related type of lock, which just locks the rear wheel. So if someone wants to carry it away and put it in a car/van they can, but they never do.

A jokester did steal my handlebar rubbers recently so now im just holding on to iron handle bars. Makes it look even more crappy I guess so thats okay

>>954406
Post pics of bike, please?

Which downtube are you referring to? There's lots of downtubes on /n/. I think you're probably one of them.

>>949804
