• no fucking around with this one. slotting ratchets to get an extra gear.
    areyouawizard.jpg or engineer?

    or both?

  • Haha, I was looking at the internals of SRAM shifters. And after days of thinking, is that really it? I decided to just try it. Got the shifter assembled again and it really shifts 12 times now.

    I have an engineering degree by the way.

  • thats what that semi circle cog was? you've modded the internal ratchet system of the shifters? lol- next level. well done.

  • Awesome. Is it off an MTB shifter? The road ones look a bit bulkier than that. Although I've only looked at the 10-speed ones in any detail.

    Edit: oh my stupid brain failed to process "Apex 1"

  • well I am also technically an engineer, a master of SCIENCE (but in architecture, so nah)

    I have just been gazumped by the new thang from way back in 2007 but new to me, some avid juicy hydraulic brake levers that started spilling their juice over me.
    my gf also finds I am a hobby mechanic without much talent seeing that bikes brake down all the time and her omafiets just soldiers on without maintenance.
    I am afraid she has a point there...
    anyways, MOAR modding, hoe did you get the twelfth cog to fit on the freehub?
