Back to the 90s

The Tech Wild Thing is done! It's got better chainrings now, and I've gone over the drivetrain and tuned it up. It's a fast, light bike and will make a perfect commuter.

I decided to buy new chainrings for the Kona bike as the steel cranks I was using are bent and don't give much clearance between crank arm and frame. Also, the replacement rings cost about $30 after shipping, much better than the $80-90 it was going to cost for locally sourced (albeit high quality) parts.
