The "what the hell is Odyssey / Gspprt cooking up" thread.
Thomas031:
i like the socket drive but i just hope it won't go clicking back and forth after time. i was always discontent with sprocket bolts for that reason. i like the idea of having the torque of the sprocket directly on the crankarm. That's mainly what i thought spline drive would give problems with; fucking up axles and stuff, but it obv hasn't as far as i know.
Sammm:
I just wanna say I wish socket drive had existed from day one. I ran the flatare twombolts (160mm) with both a flatware socket drive sprocket and a zodiac socket drive sprocket for about 18 months* and it worked an absolute treat. I'm extremely talented at bashing cranks/sockets into things and it never once gave me any issues.
If I ever buy new cranks (unlikely) they will be socket drive for sure.
*ground through the world on LH arm, got scared and bought bsd cranks (short an sweet)
couch:
I've got a ton of Socket Drive sprockets, from 15t up to 30t. Been making 3/4", 22mm, 15/16" adapters and some spline drive adapters since the beginning. Still really only sell to flatland dudes though. I've milled quite a few sprockets, both bolt drive and spline drive into Socket Drive. Most work just fine without issue. It really is a nice system.

When will those new Ross tires be available?

basically, profile is retarded

Is it not Profile that uses 7mm broached crankbolts? Who in their right mind said "7mm is a good idea"?
