Describe your personal bike setup. I asked Lil’ Jon and he said “janky” so I’m going with that.
Describe the contents of your personal bike tool bag. I definitely don’t have a personal tool bag. I hate working on my bike.
What part do you wear through the quickest? Pedals for sure.
What part do you break most often? Nothing has broken lately. “Knock on wood.”
Do you patch flat tires or get new tubes? Tubes for sure. It’s 2009, you can’t be riding on patched tubes.
Which parts are you paranoid about breaking? The front of my bike.
Where do your parts go when you’re done with them? Kids in my area.
Who builds your wheels? Anything special about them? Me. They wobble? I don’t know…
Cassette or freecoaster? I go back and forth sometimes, but I like cassettes better.
Left side drive or right side drive? Right.
Kevlar bead or regular bead? Kevlar. It’s lighter and you don’t need tire levers to change them.
Plastic pedals or metal? Plastic for sure. I hate shinners.
