WNTD - 21t + 22t Single Speed Sprocket/Cog (Cassette)

Does anyone have a 21 and/or 22 tooth single speed sprocket/cog kicking about?

Preferably one with a wide base like the Surly/Andel/Gusset ones.

To fit a Shimano cassette hub.

Re: Sussex bivi a month 2018

I’ve met the owner and have permission to build a decent fire. Whoa, nice! Keeping my fingers crossed this wasn’t a one-off opportunity. How was it?

In fact, I’m having conversations with the peeps at Lewes Cycleshack about resurrecting the mtb club rides I used to o...

Re: Sussex bivi a month 2018

Hey Simon, I’m in Lewes and regularly ride the section of SDW and others between Lewes and Brighton. I’m still getting the core of my kit together but would be up for joining a little later on in the year.

Re: Here's to a new year. A good one.

Hear, hear!

I want to second the appreciation for maintaining this forum. It's been source of a lot of inspiration, kit ideas, and a couple of 1st and 2nd hand bargains. Also for welcoming a bikepacking n00b so warmly.

Here's to a wicked 2018!
