Yikes... Yesterday afternoon I broke my first chain in about 10 years...
uch:
Wasn't too bad though - only a 500円 coin sized raspberry on my knee and a bit of road rash on the shin... Much better from the last time it happened - group ride on a climb out of the saddle and たま got introduced to the top tube..
3 weeks convalescing before I could get back on the saddle...
Has this happened to many of you & care to share your stories ???
I guess the stock 105 chain isn't up to the kind of force this clyde can exert so I went ahead and ordered 2 Wipperman Nickel plated chains....
I was getting upset because I thought that that I may need to take a rest day today then I woke up this morning to my wife saying ゆきがけいこふていりますwhen she looked out the window. So with all the slushy mess out on the streets I can rest without the guilt...
Cheers,
