Hello-
I run a TA cyclotouriste with 46-42-26 on my All-Rounder with 125+5 Phil

Even on single speed setups, i'll normally just try to get the
chainline reasonable, and then i don't worry about it.
In my experience, chains last a long time m
I have not, but I can attest to the Townie (another model) that they

I also appreciate all the work you do, Jim. Sounds like this is
becoming a common issue through Gogole groups recently. (Noticed a
similar thread on the Surly LHT and CC list).
