My drivetrain seems to have eaten itself and probably taken my frame along with it!
I ride excuse me road a 1994 trek 1200. Im not entirely sure what happened but i now have a broken chain chewed up upper derailer pulle (it was made of some kind of plastic shimano rx100) and worst of all the derailer hager as been broken completely in two. Im pretty sure this means im the proud owner of a single speed bike but im not sure. So whats the verdict?
And now that im probably in the market for a new frame. what would you guys suggest for material. my options are aluminum or steel. for cost reasons and becuase cost is such in issue(read starving college student) i might be picking up whatever random frame i can afford. what grade of material should the tubes be made out of be it steel or aluminum. Any help would greatly be appreciated
