re: #208 klys (maker of Silmarils)

…yeah, my bike maintenance experience is zero. Zilch. Nothing. I have no idea what the hell I am doing.

I’ve changed flats in the middle of nowhere, I’ve patched up tubes in the middle of the desert. You know what sucks? When your chain breaks! I’ve put together a broken chain miles away from the nearest town. And don’t even get me started on drivetrains! Derailleurs, chain rings, and cassettes, those things are fuckin’ finicky!

If you mountain bike long enough, you get to be pretty good at bicycle maintenance.
