To those who have broken chains mid pedal...

Kyle V.:
... how long did it take to commit to a full balls out pedal?

I broke a 410H about 2 months ago, didn't real go OTB too badly but I can't help but feel a little nervous to actually lean into a full tits pedal. I find myself kinda leaning backwards while cranking at things, feels awkward. It doesn't help that my chainline is a little funky and makes odd noises with each crank around.

Am I just a wimp?

Prodigal Son:
No, I would be sketched to do as much work in a pedal too. I haven't broke a chain in a long time though.

O.G. David:
Wippermann 1R8 is a chain you can trust, it's so strong that it wears down drivers.

Tall Opinion:
410's have always been death traps. Get a 510 and forget about it.

Kyle V.:
I bought a 710 from my LBS because it was %20 off, so I'll see how this one does me. That Wippermann looks badass though, their chain testing videos are sweet.
