I never replace chains, just maintain them properly....

You don't carve your own links from a solid block of steel?

Yeah, but with the Dremel I can knock em out much quicker.... and now we employ orphans from war torn Bulzania to do the machining, we can offer them at a competitive price, too!

Quick question rather than make a new thread:

Can I buy a cheap 3/32" chain, 116 links say, and just split off the length I don't need so it fits a fixie? The chainring and sprocket are 3/32", no point in going for a 1/8" chain.

^Yes. That's it, yes.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
