Sam Nichols Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 theres no way the chain whip will go on because there is no sproket on there....There's nothing left of the sprocket at all?? How is that even possible?!I've never even broken a sprocket let alone stripped every tooth from it! You're some kind of medical marvel.

How is that even possible?!I've never even broken a sprocket let alone stripped every tooth from it! You're some kind of medical marvel.No it snapped almost clean off, like across the middle.....MAY have had something to do with the fact i have to uber file it to get it to fit in the 1st place.edit: anyone got a spare 12T rear sprocket? lol Edited August 19, 2009 by Simpson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djb Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 I've just realised how close this is and how very unprepared I am for it. I'm only doing Southend due to work commitments but have no idea where I'm going, meeting people or staying. I intend to arrive sometime Friday, probably early afternoon so I can get some riding in, then stay overnight and ride Saturday, leaving Saturday evening/night. Where's the best place to park and where can I stay overnight Friday - peoples houses/camp site/cheap B+B, anything will for a night.Sorry if this has all been covered but I'm a lazy bum, have not kept up to date with the thread and don't want to read the whole thing.Thanks in advance, I know one of you will help me out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
