I mount my mud flaps on the inside, it curves the flap and helps it
stay in place rather than deflecting in the wind. Some planet bike
flaps fit over the end of the fender (both inside and outside?).

I like that idea Mike!
The tape is soft and may not last, but it's worth a shot.

You're right, it's never going to hold a load like a buckle system. Guess
I should have thought of that before I purchased it. I used the simple
solution when the failure occurred on two separate occasions. It was not a
major problem - only one side would come loose - but it's not something

I guess I did not realize you were so tall (of course I have only seen

Hi all,
I realized I don't like narrow tread on my cranks, so my TA Pro V Vis
crankset is for sale. Prices are shipped to CONUS, offers are
welcomed.
175 mm 48x32 TA Pro V Vis crankset. I have the pedal washers, but I'm
missing one dustcap. The chainrings were bought new from Bicycle
I'm not sure I know what you're saying, Gino, but I never bother fastening the
main lid. Wind and gravity hold it down. I've only fastened it when carrying
the bike on a car or bus rack.

When I was a boy in India, it was common to see hub shiners made from
brightly colored, stiff bristles, like a bottle brush that you looped about
the hub. Personally, I can't see the advantage of a dirty shiner over a
dirty hub.

In Vt., we do lots of hills, my commute for example has two separate

So I get plenty of opportunity to launch myself along in a 48/12.
Smaller cogs like a 12 will hit each tooth much more often than the
