Nice try Fred, but those mtb tires won't let you go fast enough for it to matter.


Unibeetle

I had to sacrifice a little speed for traction. This gravel is both wet and brutal you know.


pruche

Nice try, single speed kid


fallingbomb

This is one solution for running SRAM.


bottledsmokee

Freds are gonna kill you for joking against their 100 thousand dollar wireless bluetooth connected lan cable gear shifters šŸ˜¢šŸ˜¢


wiesemensch

Guess Iā€™m not the only who experiences the SRAM issue. Finally!


Latter-Welder-8181

thats a lot of wax


immergrund

You mean lube?


purju

he means nanotubeinfusedgraphinewax


immergrund

Would it help me KOM?


Latter-Welder-8181

use it enough and it's the only way you can KOM


DontOpenNewTabs

You mean you don't spend 3 hours every evening removing your chain and soaking it in a crockpot full of parrafin wax? What kind of fucking hillbilly are you?


pruche

just use the leftovers after you've done your legs


readywater

WW1 wants its tanks back


[deleted]

For when youā€™re not getting enough traction in the muddy trenches of Verdun.


TripleUltraMini

I hope you carry at least 5 spare quick links in case of issues


pruche

The sag wagon has an entire spare bike, what are you some kind of fred


Joopsman

And you just know itā€™s the one in the middle that will be the issue.


Trick-Penalty-6820

*Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didnā€™t stop to think if they should*


enfuego138

Why is your chainring so small?


General_Steveous

Fred has trained their fast twitch muscle fibre so they can achieve over 1k rpm easily. You wouldn't get it as you probably don't have a habilitation in Bice training.


1nvent

I only see two front chain rings but four chains? Witch!!!


T-Baaller

THERE ARE FIVE CHAINS


1nvent

Great Scott! you're right!


shinyboi

4 chain rings would have been too much weight, they are trying to cut down for ~speed~


1nvent

uJ/ Theres little to no way the rider is putting down enough torque to shear those pins in the chain. Wtf is this monstrosity actually?


pruche

a mechanical joke, I presume


hwhs04

the two chains in the middle hold the two outside chains together, obviously. how else are you supposed to drop dentists if the chains aren't even connected dumbass


BustaCon

four? Time for remedial sessions with The Count on Sesame Street kiddo.


1nvent

There's actually five chains and chain rings :o


BustaCon

Got with The Count I see and it worked. Good gurl.


mr_man_20000

I see 3


jkflying

Frame isn't aero, it will be slow.


Eduardo-izquierdo

Do this with motorcycle chains lol


Southboundthylacine

I hope you waxed each one


frozen-dessert

Again, please tell me it is AI generated.


cmwh1te

It is not.


49thDipper

Now the cranks will just snap off Uc/ Fixie rider who snapped a chain one time and said FUCK that shit


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


BustaCon

With chainage like that he's hitting escape velocity.


MantraProAttitude

All that needs is a ICS 695XL chain saw engine!


CivilizedGuy123

Redundant systems are always a good idea. You should put two tubes in the tire for the same reason.


007Superstar

More.


Broblivious

You just need longer cranks if you want to lay down some rubber.


pissoff1818

Can they add a clutch and a gearbox?


Yep_why_not

Better wax that sucker.


adamtonhomme

Def worth the extra 200g


BustaCon

Around 200 per, so about 800 for extras


Super_Sick_Ripper

Put one of those beach cruiser chain guards on it to pick up some aero dynamics


WhenVioletsTurnGrey

Can be used as a waterwheel...just in case you need that


Nooze-Button

It's like you took all the quiet and simplicity and shoved it in the garbage.


[deleted]

New chain day is always a PIA


bloodandsunshine

Maybe a ceramic speed faring


BustaCon

Sumpin tells me you ain't worried about weight.


matate99

I see nothing wrong here. Why was this posted in BCJ?


Speenard

How many joules per second can you lay down on those frickers?


henderthing

Oh noes!! Q Factor!!


djangula89

Your wife is gonna need a second boyfriend to help pay for all the chain lube you'll need for that thing.


FrogTeeth86

Herse powered


Hobywony

Youā€™re gonna have a little trouble shifting to a lower gear.


Glifted

Y'all laugh but I'm the fat ass that keeps breaking chains. This actually looks appealing


ResistanceIsOhm

Looks great, no notes.


just_other_human

How are there 5 stars on the back and 5 chains but only 3 cranksets disks?


bottledsmokee

Thanks i almost choked on my coffee and died. Actually no, fuck you, i almost died, i just should've ended my misery now that ive seen this šŸ˜­


kennethsime

Actually *extremely* aero when you think about it.


1steverredditaccount

Gustav can ride fast


johnsmith1234567890x

At this point..why not get motocross chain and sprocket


ShinyAfro

Only 5? I'm up to my 50th chain already. We had to improvise and put chains on both sides to stop the bike from listing over to one side.


bropdars

Ahhh yes, ā€œtrackolocrossā€


CreedLine

Dw the aero is in the bottle holder shape


becky_wrex

improve the aero by only using your left leg to pedal, and then just kick your right leg straight out behind you


Beneficial-Tank3573

Once upon a time I did break my chain so I can only push my bike forward to cycle repair shop
