Say it ain't so: The Assploded Bike Parts Picture Thread.

I got some 8000s for my cross bike and this is bumming me out. Is it mostly sweat, or does gravel/rain have an effect?

Thank god I don’t ride any of my bikes hard enough to break anything

6600 “ugly”?

Compared to 7700 it’s all hot garbage.

Can you post some photos of these failures plz

I actually saw that before, but I must’ve blocked it from my memory.

Got about 17 of these dudes for a project
Showed up like this

Seems right in line with what I would expect from Alex.

What about the CX50? That’s pretty much a 105 right?

All 17 of them came fucked up like that?
The Adventurers that I built up were suspiciously nice for the price.

17 is a prime number that does not divide nicely, but maybe 5.6 recumbent trikes?

17 rims means 48 chainrings if you want as many skid patches as possible
