Even at my fastest at the track, I never pushed anything close to a 56:12. I'm also a pretty big sprinter.
So either you're incredibly strong (again like olympic level) or your cadence is like.. 5

Your cog is slipping.

You need to upload the pic to a hosting site like imgur or photobucket, then copy & paste the img code into your post.

Dear Scrod
Does BFSSFG make you want to punch yourself in the face? If so how have you managed to be so active after all these years?

yo scrod, would it be too much of a pain to cut one of the pairs of bars I just ordered, down a bit? Hahaha
EDIT: Maybe nvm, I think they look just right for grips and a lever stock, without being a bus length wide.

Dr. Scrod,
Oddball question for you. A brand new, hand built by you or another quality builder, 36h, 700c wheel, no mileage. If one spoke broke (let's say due to a defect in that spoke) how much would you expect that wheel go out of true?
