Bike parts you hate.

On your chainring >>>

I would accept a multiple of 5 at a stretch, but 37? 41? There is no room for this shit in my life

Both primes, without them other numbers couldn't exist.

Probably just specific to me. But these belt tensioners are fecking crap.

Anyone that needs a tensioner on a track bike annoys me really.

Anyone that needs a tensioner on a track bike annoys me really.

Here I am, with chain tugs on all my track frames. That should keep you annoyed all evening, but it keeps my back wheels in place with nothing more robust than a pair of M6 screws, rather than big heavy track nuts. Saves my track ends from getting assaulted by the heavy pressure needed to keep the wheel in place if I didn't use chain tugs, which is particularly vital with the full carbon track ends on my T3.

It's just easier, what's the problem?

Anyone know if it's possible to take out a spacer on the wheel and run a tensioner on the inside?

You dont even need to take a spacer out.

Anyone that uses a tensioner for setting tension as opposed to maintaining wheel position...

Fixed.

Along with spacers, tensioners are pure evil...

Anybody that doesn't have the money to spend on top level race ready equipment just to ponce about london.

Anyone without Thompson tattooed on their forearms.

Everyone else in the world.

^ not bike parts

I hate n3il, only when playing polo.

Those are for a belt drive which needs high tension. Never felt the need on the fixed. But Tester is right.

Unnecessary

jb predicts a lot of flex in this area hence the protector.
