Got the Campagnolo Record chain from PBK but I don't have a Campy chain tool. The last one I put on with the regular tool came apart and I don't like using a quick-link. I used to borrow the tool from my LBS but he retired. I plan to call the guy who bought him out and ask if he'll put the chain on for me.
Then, if it skips I won't be able to ride it until I find a cassette.

So, Pops is in the hospital again. A while back he found out that he has a couple of vertebra in his lower back that have decintegrated. To the point that he is in constant pain from nerves being pinched. His legs feel like they are on fire. They had scheduled surgery to fuse and clamp the concerned pieces of spine, and found problems with his blood. Which delayed the surgery. So a week ago he was filling the Squirrel feeder and lost his balance crashed into the privacy fence, slid along it until he crashed into the railing for the deck. Where he went the rest of the way to the ground. When my mom got to him he had that look in his eyes like he didn't recognize her and couldn't really speak. She thought he'd had another stroke and called an ambulance. And he's been in the Hospital since. They had to give him a blood transfusion 2 days ago. Today Mom called and said they are doing the surgery within the next 2 days. As V.V. says,.....wut..... seams like a reversal to me. I'm glad they're helping him but that was kind of sudden.

Then, if it skips I won't be able to ride it until I find a cassette.

Yes, you can see the line in the photos. It's for semi-daredevils. If I were younger I would consider it.
