    Fair enough...

    Happy to believe that...

    Really? (again, genuine question... I use one half link on my track bike, to get a better compromise with my rear wheel position - if I bring it too close to the BB, the tyre hits the non drilled "brake" bridge because I use 23c instead of 20c... Am I going to die because of a potentially failing half link?)

    That's exactly the reason why I'm using one as well.
    All I can say is that it's working well, for 2 years now so far.

    Now that I have switched to tighter tires, I'm switching to regular chain but can be really helpful in some situations.

    hey,
    yes I should get rid of that chain as well, I got it because I used to have bigger tires and the rear one used to touch the frame when the wheel was fully inside the dropout.

    That chainset is an old shim 600; changing it is my next upgrade.

    And yes it's tapped!

    hi guys,

    I'm vivian from Paris, France, just passing by saying hello :)
    Been riding for two years now on a track bike and hope to keep doing that for a while!
    I'm a big fan of vintage bikes and love sneaking through the Internet to find some nice rare piece of gears, ,now looking for that old c'dale crit.

    Cheers,
    Vivian
