It's Zeitgeist time.  All are welcome, monster or not, rider or not.  New faces are welcome!  You provide your company, we'll provide tamales, beer, porta-potties and lies about how fast we are and how much we know about bikes. 

For entertainment, Tigre'll be giving clinics on how to pick up 'geist bouncers.  Mostrobelle will explain the finer points of consuming found beer.  Michael Moore will explain your Social Security benefits.  Drunken Monkey will try to polish every piece of metal in sight.  Ya know . . . the usual.

Date:  Thursday, July 30
Time:  starting around 6:30ish and going til whenever. 
Location:  SF at Duboce and Valencia.

If you like.  Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin



Seriously though, I have some questions on this newfangled shit. Like how do you adjust chain tension on them single sided swingarms, and like that.

Isn't it an eccentric?  Rotate the eccentric and the chain tightens or loosens.

Let me ride it around the block and I'll tell you.

(two pinch bolts on the rear axle hold the eccentric in place -- loosen, then rotate to desired tension, then tighten)

I can't wait to not have to adjust rear wheel alignment anymore on my racebike.   Wink

Ah, good. As long as I don't have to loosen that fookin' huge axle nut at 230nm, I'm a happy guy.

Sorry for the threadjack. Now back to your regularly scheduled beer...

I have a 2-foot breaker bar for 180Nm.  I suspect that would require an impact wrench and/or a 3-foot breaker bar.

Yes, it's certainly too bad that you've never gotten to ride a Streetfighter.  It's quite something I'll tell you.  Oh, but that's right, you haven't ridden a Streetfighter.  Not like me.  Cuz I've ridden a Streetfighter.

Well, I know for sure an 18" one won't do the trick. I may just get an electric impact driver and be done with it.
