>>1502353>All the time if you have literally any bumps at all in the road. t. I've made that mistake, but ymmv given different riding preferences and my desire to gofest.Ive notice that its far less of an issue on old drivetrains where chainring teeth had far more meat on them with uniglide systems, both in width and height, newer drivetrains shift better but teeth are more lower so can loose a chain more easily.
>I'm running hex key skewers, yeah.Im mirrin, they look cool, but what is their actual advantage, a QR can provide 500kg of force already. Ive always had problems with locking wheels with cantis, they were those plastic shimano ones, but even metal ones werent that impressive, maybe not set properly or something.
>People like you really don't understand that the stem and bars don't change the geometry, just the steering feel.not "geometry" in strick sense, but that setup changes your position, all bikes that come OEM with short stem have very long top tubes to compensate the position. e.g. your lever position on the Nishiki.
