Havent needed to upgrade or add anything to my bike for along time. Been busy saving up for some gear.

Finally got a new chain. Member from another forum had a Super light KMC X10SL chain NIB for $40. Needed a new one for a while, so I couldn't pass it up. My last chain was a regular KMC at 260g (I think there was 6 links taken off) and the new one came in at 229g (Same amount of links taken off).

yeah it has something to do with photobucket. The original does not look pinkish at all.

EDITED: Just did an edit. I think that fixed it. please let me know if you still see a pinkish hue

Lol it does match the new kit, but for some reason, the picture goes back and forth. I'm looking at it above this right now and it is spot on white with no pink hue at all. I looked an hour ago and I saw the pink. WTF!?

Pro Tip: Get a black bike. It always looks black!

B10, a bit off topic, but what software do you use to postprocess your images?
