I already have a collection........it's a sickness. Don't do it.

'03 Specialized hardrock disc (wheeeee)
Prophet 5
Mountain Cycle Rumble (SS)
Trek roadie (terminally on trainer)
Trek roadie (converted to SS)
Electra cruiser, WRB (need to repack brakes, eep)
87 Diamondback Silver Streak (in rafters, had it for 21 years, first bike I bought myself)
Some other Specialized 13" that I need to replace shifters on for a house bike.
I think that's it.

Been trying to get my endurance up but it's not going well with my schedule, heh.

Feel free to join any ride we talk about. You might have to trade in that Nikon for a Canon though.

New chain - went with the SRAM pc-971, and new cassette. I went with an XT cassette. It's my bad for not checking it :\. I'm gonna try to sell the XTR cassette on CL, mentioning that it is indeed partially worn. In this manner, someone with a partially stretched chain likely won't have any issues.
