"I think the IGH is a bit more complicated since there's a shift cable attached and possibly a brake cable.  What model do you have?  Someone on the list might be able give you more detailed info with this information. "

S replied to Evan's discussion 'Fixed gear?'
"What were you using?  Even low-end groups like apex or sora will stay in a single gear without attention and will shift pretty much within a second of shifting.   Sounds like you haven't tried a recent geared bike, give it a shot.…"

Euchre/Poker Night at Above Chava

May 16, 2013 from 7pm to 11pm
Its been a while....Come on out Thursday night and play some cards - My poker chips are getting rusty so its time to put them to use.  Poker, Euchre or whatever you want goes.  It should be amazing out this week and what a better way to end the evening by riding over, playing some cards, enjoying the cheese frattata (I wont be making that FYI, it just sounded nice to say) and drinking some spirits.See you on Thursday!See More

Hey S, are you around anytime today? I'm catching a ride home with Timmy on Sunday but he's not available for me to drop off my car rack. Any chance you can lug it up and I can stick it on his car at the site?

I actually have a friend who wants a ride, but who doesn't drive.

It looks like I'll be working from 11 to noon and could probably leave at 12:30. I can always drive myself. However, I'd kind of like to ride up...even if it's on my own. Do you think you could give him a ride? We're up in Lincoln Square.

Hey there,

the group messaging system is down, so im reaching out to everyone individually. im just following up to see if you are still going on the camping trip to Illinois Beach State Park. we are actively securing sites and forming groups to make sure everyone has a spot.

if you are still coming, please hit me up or refer to the google docs spreadsheet (https://spreadsheets0.google.com/ccc?key=tRlefp7jwwSRd7jn2-sGutQ&hl=en) and make sure you have a site reserved or part of a group.

if you are not coming, please update your RSVP so we know accurate numbers of people going.

thanks,
iggi

ahh--maybe then i won't need to swap out my front derailleur when swapping..?
you're right they're not that expensive if need be.
thanks!
At 12:50pm on June 7, 2009, Rx Star said…

thanks!
At 10:54am on June 7, 2009, Rx Star said…

I'm checking on whether the person i'm swapping with has shimano 105 rear derailleur--if not, i'm going with yours-thanks!
question though--do you think i'll need to swtich out the front derailleur as well?
