So I’ve come to teh conclusion that the old LG1 chain device I’ve got on my BFe is causing a lot of drag – especially when filled full of shite.
So I’m considering ditching the full chain device and going with a top guide, Sram type 2 mech and possibly a trendy ring.
Now there seems to be a hint of “latest cool toy” about N/W rings,and I’ve heard tales of premature jockey wheel & clutch failure on the mechs, so before I commit I’d like to hear about your BAD experiences with them!
I tend to use my BFe as a foul conditions bike, so it’ll be out in thick gritty mud, snow, ice etc. Particularly interested to know if the N/W rings can clear mud properly.
Cheers!
Jon
