First of all ,English is my first language. I know the use of punctuation and the purpose of it. It's extremely ott that you lot are going crazy over it. Clearly you can understand it. It's just ur ignorance to ignore it or think that just because this person isn't using punctuation, that means its pointless the to answer or read. Because this person is stupid or can't speak English well or something else negative. Come on we are on the internet were u dont need to go all pedantic about this. You can all understand it well. However I have released most of you guys are over a certain age where there is not such thing of internet speaking and they can't understand anything without punctuation. Lets get back to the main subject now because talking about punctuation on a cycling forum is just plain ridiculous now. Getting back to the subject I was happy was cycling on the gear that i was on until i was told that i was cross chaining and cross chaining is bad. However, the cheapest triban bike with a compact group set is £600 and i am not spending that much money it as I do lock my bike up a lot in London. And i was thinking or getting a compact but it might end up being close to £200 the price of the sora groupset on ribble because i need two whole shifter. Not due to the compact crank i know i need one, but I need them because, they are bent. And I do pedal quite fast I'm not a slow cyclist except on hills thats way i find it too easy to just pedal on the gear i was on to have a better chainline and if i go on the top crank lower gear i will find it ok to hard and this all depends on the elevation and the wind speeds too.
Honestly how old are you lot this is a cycling forum. We should be talking about bikes here not punctuation is it overly pedantic here and u cannot please anymore. And there is a time and place where I use punctuation appropriately. Cycling forums are not really the place to get all fuzzy about it. They r words u can clearly understand them.
Yeah they are homophones, which sound the same, but are spelt differently. Which is not punctuation.
Can I just clarify? You are generally using the big chainring and the middle to top end of the cassette (smallest few gears)? If so, this is not cross chaining.
I know that same of these word arent proper english words but honestly most people understand r and u and all these other words. Plus they end up being pedantic when I the use of punctuation is wrong. On a cycling forum. Where use of english language shouldn't matter. However, I have noticed most people how are on here are people who don't understand the point of shorten text on the internet or not using punctuation, which takes long to type down, compared to just typing it down without having these rules involved. This can clearly be read with punctuation or not.
Thank you Phill. Originally I have been doing that a lot. And most of the time I'm on the Big crank and I vary from the middle to top cassette. However I am trying to avoid cross chain but its hard due to it being too easy on the middle crank and middle cassette.
