    The place down here doesn't adjust the chain tensioners at all. Just out with the axle and in with the axle. Saves any arguments about "you didn't tension my chain properly".

    You'd have to be a proper retread not to know your chain's loose. My chain gets checked and lubed more than my hand.

    I followed that dude the other night over the bridge, sure that chain was hitting the road.

    I don't know whether to be impressed or feel sorry for you after a comment like that.

    Ok, sweet. And pink is kinda similar to red right? That means it will go almost as fast as a red one?

    A chain getting loose, normally indicates itself with an increase of missed gear changes.
