Plenty of slack.

 

[mymaster]

rear sprocket

 

[frisbee]

Only takes left turns!

 

[mymaster]

another rear shot, can only imagine what the front looks like

 

[mymaster]

you can judge the slack by the tire letters and white stamp mark on the side wall.

This is just lifting it, probably could have touched the arm if I pushed hard enough. I Asked him if he was trying to kill himself.

I usually wear out the left side before the center or the right side.

But I never let a front get that bald...

that poor bike

You might suggest to your co-worker to think about finding another hobby! Neglect like that is gonna get him into some serious trouble....soon! Looks like you could almost snap those sprocket teeth off with your fingers!

misaligned tire?

I know that the roads typically have a crown in the middle, so the left side wears a bit more than the right, but good grief! Get him to a tire dealer quick!

he needs to go back to being a cager.....

Looks like he left it up to the dealer to maintain the bike.

 

[psycobusa]

not very safe at all

bikes that run right are for wimps. your not really riding if theres not a chance of your tire blowing up or your sprocket folling apart.

nope,

just lots of cornering.

I almost always wear out the sides of my tires first. Just not that far...

Them tires and sprocket have plenty of life left.

I've seen his cage

. He needs to ride the bus. He's young and still learning - the hard way
