If it's a relatively new bike, play hardball with the shop as this is largely the fault of whoever assembled it.<br /><br />On the upside, without a workshop and some spare parts (the derailleur cage is likely going to have to be replaced) there is likely nothing anyone could have done to fix that so it's a pretty solid excuse! The dropped chain is easy to fix, but in this case that was just a symptom of the larger problem.tmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13848721470246177555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37373654.post-19849647650443126882011-06-17T08:15:40.880-04:002011-06-17T08:15:40.880-04:00lol marlene :) well i certainly understand where y...lol marlene :) well i certainly understand where you are coming from. the fact that you run to WORK sometimes blows my mind. sometimes when we finish a run we just want that to be the clear finish, as opposed to having to gear up to get home. at least that is how i am. i live very close to work, but it is just enough of a too long a walk that i would constantly be rushing around, and i need my car to go from work- class- etc. i am not going to be a bike-commuter as the single time i tried it i got hit by a car, wahh. hehehe. i know i know, not likely, and i certainly feel guilty/ but justified for not getting to work in a more environmentally friendly way.No Longer Usinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16711306638916660889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37373654.post-65194803797805789632011-06-17T01:07:27.727-04:002011-06-17T01:07:27.727-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Julie D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08422741135790771406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37373654.post-45017809126070703852011-06-17T01:07:19.723-04:002011-06-17T01:07:19.723-04:00oh, bummer, marlene!!
