If something is slipping, its not cause your chain is loose, it cause your sprocket / cog is loose, tighten it up, then tighten up the lockring before you try any more skids, otherwise you will ruin your hub.
^this is very important^ You risk ruining much more than your hub if your cog & ring are slipping. ie. ass, skull, mush etc.

hmmm - whats the diff between fixed fixed and flip flop - i notice that the other side of the fuji hub has 2 different thread diameters - like this pic:

(not a halo hub, just looks the same)
is that fix fix or flip flop?fixed/fixed means it's fixed both sides, flip-flop means you can put a sprocket on either side. If the other side has a stepped thread then you can put a fixed sprocket & lockring on it, otherwise, if it has no step in the thread, it will be a fixed/free flip-flop hub and you'll have to use a BMX-style freewheel

thanks - i think in that case its a fixed fixed that comes as standard on the fuji i have - which means then i dont need to remove the 15t cog :)

even a simple black set-up can make the fuji look really nice;
is that yours edscoble? what are those bars?? i dont like the stock fuji track drops on mine, those look nice
-
• #712

See that little Search button up on the header bar - it's your friend and rewards usage.

That's a very nice Fuji Track Alexander. But I hope you realise it's against the law to put a Brooks on a Fuji?
:(

I've got a Brooks saddle on my Fuji Track, a green one, but covered in a Mac User plastic bag. The badness continues with silver flat bars, yellow Oury grips and a Paul Comp lever. Round bits are also a weird mix; Phil Wood on Mavic 33 rim at the front, stock rear wheel, but with a 22t cog on it. Add a few stickers into the mix, et voila...
It's turned into a bit of a Frankenstein's bike, to be honest.
