"What a difference a chain makes..."

(Sung to the tune of 'What a difference a day makes...')

Between Lyme disease fogged brain and lack of cash--I lost track of some maintenance on one of my main rides--the Mike Howard brazed Simonetti...

I just did a bunch of little delayed maintenance projects late this week--tweaked the setup a little--and finished by putting on a new Record chain (which I found in my parts box--always a bonus!).

Holy crap--that made all the difference--the thing rides like a new bike.

Nay--just left the factory goop on it for now. Gave it a wipe, seems good.
