P.S. I just found a 40 tooth chainring that will go on the crankset I have listed (in other words, more gear ratio options)

I think he originally said they were 110.

But... pro tip: you can't use biopace rings on a fixed gear. (that is if that 40 was a biopace as well)

no the 40 is normal.

and... sheldon brown says you can use bio-pace on a fixed gear. If you think about it, it makes sense that it should work. But I have never tried it, and it seems like it would be silly to do so.

I was thinking about it... realistically speaking, many track racers leave their chains slack to allow for less friction through the system. It is worth noting though that track racers are generally only going forward and their races are short lived. Dropping a chain on the street could be more dangerous... note... could.

But I think rather than dropping the chain (since biopace obviously is designed in a way to NOT drop the chain) the bigger concern would be trackstanding or using the rear to slow. In some places there would be more slack than in others...

hmm...

I think that there would be more slack in some places than others. But I think that this would be caused by things like not have a perfectly shaped chainring, or not having the chainring perfectly centered on the spider. I think if all of the mechanical aspects of the setup were perfect, you would maintain a constant chain tension.

P.S. I am not defending the merits of biopace in any way. Biopace sucks.

Yo, sorry this took so long guys.  It's the pics of the Polo bike.  Honestly if anyone's interested, just make me an offer.  I'm willing to deal just to get it out of my garage.

Yo, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, been super busy.

Still have the crank, although I think that MBK was interested, and I don't want to step on his toes so you'll have to work it out with him as to who has divine right to it (I recommend a "roe sham beau").

Yo dudes, I've been taking mental inventory of stuff that I have and would be able to part with, and I had a thought.

If anybody needs a car stereo for their bike (chase was that your portable sound system at the cx race or was that ted's?) I have a couple laying around. One of them is from my old Mercury Topaz (Car is crashed but the stereo still works!!) it's an alpine something or other cd/am/fm (does not read mp3 files), this one is missing the metal part that it is supposed to slide into because I didn't think to take it out before the car went to the junk yard. Standard Yost Pricing on this one ($10).

The other one is a pioneer something or other that Best Buy gave me as a replacement when they destroyed the stock deck on my VW. don't think this one reads mp3's either. Has the metal piece to actually mount it in a car. Double standard Yost pricing ($20).

Beek I think you need one of these for the pedal car.

edit: oops, fogot to put a t on the end of "thought"
