This is my list of Would Like To Buys. I care more about price and quality than weight. My bike is thirty pounds right now, and all parts I'd be getting are lighter than what's on there in most cases. It's just how a Wal-Mart bike compares to good parts.

I'm gonna try it out for a bit. It'll be a little less than 2 rotations per crank. I see no reason not to. And anyways, If I have 2-5 days of shipping, I'll only have 2-5 days that I have to endure it if I don't like it.

Don't get the medusa sprocket they break easily.... and running a 25 14 ull only beagle to go like 5mph...I'm running a 25 10 right now and i'd say that's the easyest I'd wanna be pedaling...the half link chains are strong as duck but they wear out kinda easily I'd be better off with one of the thick kmc heavy chain

I just run a kmc gold chain to add style lol. Also that gear combo will feel like the first gear on a mountain bike.

I like half-links for the control over your chain size. It'll be a bitch if I have to get some extra pieces of chain though. All depends on what I run though.

Having a half link chain doesent do anything different than a regular chain other than it can take more abuse from grinds and stuff

Yeah it just takes more stress. For instance I have never broken any chains because i don't crank super hard and rarely mess up with grinds. So im not saying don't get one but it might not be for you its just a preference like big bars. So go for it and also great choice of grips btw.

grips are at the top of the list. I need em if I want to keep my hands from looking like I put them over a belt sander.

I've decided against a 25-14. I may as well just go for the 25-10 immediately. W/e.
