I dropped my chain twice :(...but Dylan took a kick-arse pic of me:thumb:
What type of chainguide are you running? I couldn't be happier with the Truvativ guide I have on the Spyder. It not only holds the chain on, but it is also silent.

it has more to do with the design of the Diesel...you have to run a 42t chainring or risk the ocassional derailment...I uped my chainring size from a 34 to a 38...but guess it wasn't enough....I could run smaller chainring with no problems but then I would have to ditch the idler...and the bike sucks at pedaling if I do that....D

My bike sucks at pedalling when I drop my chain.

Ok, I thought you got a Cannondale and were going to ditch the Diesel and its whack guide. Is there anyway to run an inner ring such as the MRP System 1's. That could possibly help to keep the chain on.

Hey Paki, you are such as smart ass. You must be college educated.

Hey did anyone catch what the website was for the older guy that races and takes pics? His name is Ric i think and he races Beginner. They announced it when he was on the podium.

bum to hear about your chain mishap D. But it makes me wonder why's that so considering the level of detail you put your bikes under the microscope? I built the Be One on Friday night and raced it on Sun with only Jeremiah to blame for my botched race run.

Hope to see you more at the races...

no you can't just "get" the pics, unless you steal them. these aren't freebies. I'm considering selling digi files...but haven't decided yet, & at what price.... The site i use to store/sell my event photos doesn't offer a method to sell digi files...so this would have to be done independently through me....which i don't really have time for
