You need to fit a different rear sprocket cluster.

Just ignore the forum's Evil Doctor's comment.

An 8/9 speed spin-on gear cluster?

Good luck with that.

It is easy to blunder onto a forum Bike Chat Forums when looking for 'bicycle' info if you put bike into Google and click enuf.

You have probably confirmed form him that bikers are just ignorant cnuts and that poor guy won't ever own or want to own a motor bike now.

I usually read a few threads before joining and posting on a forum. Don't know about everybody else?
