p-p-pedal grinds...

I recently hacked together some pedal-grind plates out of lexan type stuff and tried my hand at pedal feebles... It's much easier with a downward sloping ledge, though this one wasn't really high enough..

I've been giving them ago of late, but they were taking an unholy toll on my chainring (no bashguard) and my derailleur when I got hung up. I basically came to the conclusion that I needed much tougher parts IE: singlespeed with a BMX sprocket and so, until I can dedicate a single bike to such jibbery, they'll have to wait.

yeah my bashguard is getting grinded a bit... the trick is to get the pedal lower so your bashguard/chainring doesn't contact the ledge, also gets the mech outta the way too.

JIBBEr !!! ;) Looks like it works pretty well mate.

the bolt on my mech has been grinded a bit, it's all about getting the pedal low, so it lifts the drivetrain outta the way. But i'll be riggin up a 26" SS wheel soon to see how that goes...
