Re: Live vs. Dead axles

604 has used dead axles simply because we like to quickly switch out our wheels during competition, so we press the bearings into our wheels and screw on our #35 sprockets. This allows us to slide the wheels onto the dead axle, tension the chain up, and we're good to go.


What came first: the student or the mentor?
