2015-01-11 Thread Scott Marriott
In this week's Blug about staff bikes, Jeremy's Hunqapillar photos had one shot, the second from the last, that has a modification I'm having a hard time finding out more information about. I'm trying to understand the additional pulley added to the cable routing. I see he's using Suntour
