Ironhead Hell, indeed!


Keeping on with the roadside fix theme...
150 miles into a ride, Dave's primary started making some threatening noises. So, we pull into a ratty looking gas station/convenience store, dumpster dive for some oil-absorbing ground cover, borrow a tackle box full of rusty old tools and dig in.
We found that a low oil level in the primary had allowed the primary chain to start to devour the adjuster shoe.
A little cleanup, some readjustment and 20-50w, he was back on the road!
