Watch me slip into existential cynicism as I try to figure out how to turn a perfectly good triple crankset into a wide range double. Why? Well I never really say...which just adds to the mysique of this long and windy video! But basically, it's because I literally have nothing better to do with my time during the winter months - I KNOW! ISN'T IT GREAT!?
But seriously folks, why does everyone love these Specialized Hard Rocks so much? It's mostly because they look cool. The faded pink and purple paint with retro graphics are pretty dern radical - but still get the looks! And that's exactly what's most important thing in building yourself a custom bicycle.
But they're also super practical and parts are a dime a dozen and widely available for all of your abstract expressionist creative bicycle building amibitions - OK mostly just mine...but...well...just stick with it. There's a lot here!
