Rally_Kia So, I'm thinking of painting the Devinci all black again, with a neon green fork, and neon green on the front of the frame drip-fading into the black...

  TURPLE It is a low riser. Not sure of the angle, but it feels good.

  Rally_Kia Did you go with a higher-rise stem, or just slam the frontend down with the bars? Mine is pretty low now, and it's supposed to be my "trail bike".

  Rally_Kia I'm thinking a 30 degree Ritchey stem in similar length to what I have right now, with a 31.8 clamp. I got wimpy little stuff now off my old trials bike.

Rally_Kia Soaked and scrubbed the chain on my commuter. Winter is HARD on a bike. Specially in the Maritimes. Chain and drivetrain are toast. Come spring, it just might turn into a winter bike. Pedals are bad, freehub is bad, rear hub is bad, fork is a poopshow. Might start fresh with something. See how the money goes...

Rally_Kia The old Concorde has had the lettering touched up with gold paint, my shifters work great, and my tire lettering is all freshened up. Whoot! Can't wait to cable it up properly, get some pedals on it and hit the trails again.

  riderx I have an old 32t that should suffice for the application.

  riderx Agreed, thumbies rock! Just got the conversion kit for my Schwinn to change the crank. I'll have an easier gear ratio very soon.

  Rally_Kia Noice! What are you going with, 34T or something? It's probably 19T on the back, if it's like most coasters. I've seen some 17T and 18T cogs as well, though.
