The kink fatboy is indestructable. but once you get it on your not getting it off unless you cut it with a saw...or unless you have an OS chain breaker...anyways you would have to buy the ACS fatclaw freewheel. the OS chain wont work well on any other one. Another thing is your sprocket, for the first couple of rides its going to kind of grind down your teeth, but once it smooths out itll be all good. but yea, its heavy..they need to make it out of Ti. that would be awesome. ------------------------------ -Pip, Your friendly post whore ------------------------------ | |

yeah either shadow interlock or the wipperman.. Wipperman is more expensive but there both good chains. if your looking for a nice chain but not the $30 ones then go with a KMC street for $16.99 Bike & Destroy | |

The idea is that without brakes, you'll pay more attention when you're riding, and hopefully wouldn't put yourself in a situation where you need to stop like that, I can say from experience from riding those kinds of bikes, as well as bikes with freewheels and brakes, that having a brake only makes you feel like you can let your guard down, and you're more likely to need to stop suddenly, it's hard to imagine unless you've acctually done it, and you can lock up the wheel and slide sideways, it takes a little more practice than just squeezing the brake lever, but if you just stop pedaling, the back tire will stop spinning, and thank you guys for the help, I asked the same question on the flatland board, cause a lot of guys go there, and that's where I usually ask stuff, cause i've got a flatland bike, but all they can do is ask "why would you need a strong chain on a flatland bike??", i've had to expain to them 4 times now that I just need a strong bmx chain, and no one on a road bike forum is gonna know about bmx chains, which is why I came here | |

a fatboy chain usually rubs the shit out of your frame, besides i think a 3/16th chain is a little overkill on a trackbike | |
