HOW?
fook me, you're either a monster or jinxed
Jinxed I feel. The rear mech hanger takes very little load under normal conditions, even during a full on sprint. I can only imagine that some how the chain got jammed in the rear mech & it was wrenched like that.fook me, you're either a monster or jinxed
You've got something set up wrong to rip a hanger off, or it's hit the spokes..
Argh Case for N+1+1 !
make it a fixie, avoids that sort of problem…
Wow, I remember Claude Crimes when it was still on Bridge Street, before it moved to near the Bus Station. Which is also now gone. Apparently when it shut the buisness was bought by the owners of Dawes Brothers who also moved and became The Bike Factory. Or possibly the other way round. I still have a light weight fleece with Claude Crimes written on it.
Now I think about it there's a 50/50 chance my first 2 wheeler (as pictured on left, not my actual one unfortunately) came from that shop.
