Maple Leaf Test Rides

The continuing saga of test riding a Supercycle SC1800 (Canadian Tire product # 71-1556)

Friday, July 28, 2006

km 1851

Not riding well on the wet course today. Must move slowly as the brakes have faded to the point of near uselessness. They howl like angry banshees despite being ridiculously toed in. Stopping distance under full lever pull from 20 kph has increased from 2.5 meters to 10 meters.

The Phil's tenacious oil is managing to keep the chain lubricated despite near complete neglect over the last three months. The elongated chain and worn freewheel still provide transmission engagement.
