Coffee you say? I'm THERE!Nice setup BarelyAwake, btw, I have coffee ready, lets ride!
Yes Max it was...It was hillarious too!
I could just envision a noob actually doing this...And then when all else failed, calling me to ask about ordering one of my adjustable sprockets.

I think you better check your speedometer. I am not buying 45 m.p.h. with that set up!

thats all fine and dandy, but what about us who intend to ride our bikes through the winter in 3 feet of snow? i think i will keep my knobby tires!(they have no knobs left anyways, so i need new ones!)I was running 2.25 cruisers and went down to 26 X 1.75- big difference! In rolling resistence and weight and VIBRATION- Only $10 tire. In fact of all the things I did, that made the biggest difference in vibration. Then, I even put a 27 X 1 1/4 wheel and tire on the front with a road brake. Even better roll.
Heres some tires on ebay- 1.5 inch, very smooth tread Not a bad deal.

1. When I had the idler, the idler wheel kept slipping down the adjuster guide. I had to use super-human strength to secure it since one side doesn't have a nut for vice grips to grip to.
