*That'd be more luck than anything else. Over here, you'd be off the roads with a bike loaded as you've shown for an unsafe and unsecured load.Remember "since my post", that was 6 days of 50 km, nobody was harmed, despite 2 rides had quite some luggageon the way back.
Fixed, 47/16 gear, so it's some pushing when bridge up, and the drivetrain did the job without complaints, like the 7 years before, despite the teeth are quite different of what they were then.
Yet, you claim unsafe.*
You are abit alike that character in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Asterix_characters that held a shield above his head all the time, because he thought the sky would fall.
The druid** healed him - he left throwing his shield away dancing happily.
You can find Panoramix contact details there.
**I think if you check your "facts" the Gauls in that tiny village all had the one fear, that the sky would fall on their heads.
Panoramix was the druid, known as Getafix and Readymix in the UK.
Was it a case of physician heal thyself?

GO HOLLOWTECH wasn't my idea, check yer facts first then post.
You ignored the simple answer, so you're flagging yourself here
That "Blah blah..." was the report from the field that your unfounded claim of danger due to sprockets condition contradicts.
I criticized Shimano's design based on failures that shouldn't be occurring for safety reasons, regardless any "idea" of you.

You OK Donald ?
You denied the reserve over the max expected, I showed you an article that underscores that design basis, and now you say "told you so". No - YOU were told so.

T'weren't my idea, whatever tha thinks.
Your showing yourself up as a fool on here, and you seem to be revelling in it. Howabout just a knowledging you made the wrong choice for youself, let others choose for themselves and move on.
Your effort in trying to save weight on a badly loaded utility bike came unstuck.
Given the picture you've told everyone is your bike is overloaded, and badly loaded at that, you were trying to save weight in the wrong area. You can blame who you want, but in the end you parted with your money for something that according to you was fitted by someone who didn't know what they were selling you or how to fit it. Bad choices on your part, accept them and move on.
As fine as my bicycle with chainring with 12/47 broken off teeth, and cog with 16/16 off. Since years. The current cog is the one the bike was delivered with in 2017, I had replaced it later when teeth had become skinny, but since my tests with next proved as no problem, so I put it back Keith.
Well there is little game element, all I did and do is repeat my remarks about Shimano's design that trained your right leg 3 miles more than your left leg.

What tests were these Donald ? Cognitive tests ? Did they come out a few teeth short of a sprocket ?

I suspect, the gears on my bike are no good.
Of late, they have been very shifty.Ehm no, doing nothing Keith.
Instead of replacing the cog when teeth broke off, I continued with it.
The result of the test was that replacement wasn't needed since the drivetrain kept on doing its job.
