That looks sweet Jay! I need a 55 or 58 3rd ring on my Moose. I spin out way too soon with the compact double.

Yeah, the stock compact double crankset doesn't cut it for strong riders. Key was hitting 30 mph on the West Lawther flats this morning. Needless to say, none of the other Clowns were able to ride with him.

I'll go back to a trike when I have a back fusion, or hip replacement, or some other silly thing.

Seriously, you'll know I need a head replacement when I leave that trike. Smiley

That's a much yummier speedway now. The impetus to go faster comes from making the ground look like it's going by as fast as when I'm on the trike. Smiley

Notice what Photobucket has done in my last post on page 1 of this thread. They've replaced the photo I posted, and my avatar, with a P500 notice. They've done this to all the photos I've posted to the Forum with no advance notice. All I have to do is send them $500 to get the photos restored. I'm thinking there is a term for that kind of action.
