My commute home takes me up a shortish but v.steep hill, which of course I try and race anyone on it.
Tonight a came up behind a guy, and sprinted past him....as I passed I heard..crunch...slip...clunk...and 'fecking stupid frigging bike' as he tried to change gear....
Couldn't stop laughing :LOL:
Singlespeeds ROCK
 
i ride a single speed, but the opposite hapeened to me! went to crank hard, wheel slipped in frame, chain fell off! severe balls to stem interface! luckily i have two kids already!
 
I'm starting to think I may do the Wobble on singlespeed :shock: the thought of crunchy gears in welsh muck really doesn't appeal... we're not exactly going to be going at race speed anyway.

Run a nutted axle AND a chain tug! (fixed rocks even harder!)

Slighty off topic and i may well set up a seperate thread for this at some point but can anyone recomend a good fixed gear chain. Im sick of mine snapping.
