fishsticks Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Nice Fish... What gearing are you running...? 21.5 nice and roomy too I have a Rennen decimal gear on the front. it's a 43.9 sprocket. with a 16t cog in the back. i used to a ride a 44/16 with 175mm cranks, now it's a 43.9/16 on 177.5 cranks and the spin I get now feels awesome.

Fist 666 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 can someone explain 43.9 to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishsticks Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 It's decimal gearing that pretty much let's you create any gear ratio possible. You can make any gear ratio slightly harder or easier depending on your needs for the track. Changing your gearing by fractions of a tooth is now possible. I kinda thought it was bullshit until I used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishsticks Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Too much fine tuning, it was ridiculous when I was younger lol, looking for the lightest parts possible. Carbon fiber everything with special scandium metal frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I understand the ratio element, but how is there .9 of a tooth? how does the chain not bite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishsticks Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 It's just slightly changing the circumference without messing with any of the teeth. It's not .9 of a tooth, it's just less space between each of the teeth if that makes sense? I can't even really explain it other than that, because I still don't even understand it completely. All I know is it's a little easier than a 44/16 and my team manager suggested it was what was best for me. Haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inappropriate_Responder Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I guess what I really meant to say was: Are all mongoose created equally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickos Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Mongoose sold out many moons ago. Pacific Dunlop owns pretty much all of them now... Mongoose / Diamond Back / etc... All made in China. Yes that looks very much a low-end department store bike. Ps: nice mango Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist 666 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 When did DK go that route? I recently saw a DK General Lee cruiser that was chinese, was disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishsticks Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I was definitely disappointed in DK for going that route too. Their technology has definitely stepped up as far as race frames (sorry for all the race talk). It is an impressive frame and should come as a complete. Side note, anyone on the west coast here ride trails, park, race, or just cruise? I'm trying to plan a little west coast riding tour for a couple weeks.

Fist 666 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 what you say about my mama? no but foreal. help a spider out... is this a good or bad thing? its a piece of shit. if it were clean it would probably be fun to fuck around on, but it looks like it would take some work to get it to that stage. also, why one would have suspension on that is mindblowing. that whole thing is a monster. I can't find pics of others like it, so i'm convinced it was a one off joke by someone with a lot of time, money, and welding skills.
