I agree with Al Fel totally! I hate the rule, i fitted 6 working (well nearly :-" ) to my bike for the 1st round of the nationals, and it was big ball ache to get them to work. (Y) I've ended up taking them back off, and using single speed and im not sure if want to re-fit them for the national in a week or so. :wub:
I think the rule should be ditched and then companies can work on bringing out some decent tensioners etc or possibly make 26" frames with horizontal style dropouts?
Things move on and i think this is one thing that has to change.
