haven't you have tried braking while going up hill :shock: It's a great fun way of going down hill backwards :shock:

My point is they never worked! The leverage was too intense so they usually popped off....

Kooka. Nothing is as bleak as Kooka. :shock:

The sea of Grey[to quote someone here]

If I can divert away from the SS baiting/boring, the most rubbish thing invented must be...

The Crud Claw. Never NEVER had I had a cassette clog so badly it needed a little comb to clear it and yet the wheels would still be free to turn.

Is that what that thing's for, it's been puzzling me for years

Kooka cranks.....may be looking 'bling bling' but they're as weak as cheese on a hot day. Had several pairs bitd, they were like rice crispies.

Disclaimer: Not having a pop at anybody that has hit hard times, I'm having a pop at the underclass that perceive claiming benefits as a career decision.

You may ask how can such a person have such a bike and be like that, well an answer might be, they were not always like that, no one is immune to hard times and illness, no one knows what they future holds.

:roll: You did see my disclaimer didn't you?

I mostly saw a frankly bizarre and tenuous reference to the original topic in order to voice your own unfounded and offensive prejudice.

I have (NIP) both an Insane Wayne's Nad Pad and a pair of Scott Sticky Fingers, but I don't really want to use either until I get a nicer ultra-slippery neon lycra saddle cover.

I had a cassette that got so full of snow, it froze and gear changes became hit and miss depending I suppose on whether the chain pressure was stronger than the packed and frozen snow or not. Back in the nineties, when the crud claw came out, I saw it and I got one, I could see their use. Other times whilst riding through close packed bramble and dead woody stuff it was surprising to see the amount of broken twigs and stuff on top of the claw. Yeah maybe the twigs and stuff might not have been a problem, but with the claw fitted they weren't a problem. The other thing of course the claw kept the cassette clean thus making maintenance less onorous with dragging the edge of a cloth between the gears to rid the crap they pick up mixed with hair and dead oil.

I have just located and bought another one, NOS and cheaper than the one I bought originally.

I suppose until you have experienced a problem with anything, the use of a thing that offers a cure cannot be seen.
