Today Holland was the hottest place in Europe!!! Man, summer came early this year...
Still enjoying the bike how she sit at the moment. I think I can get used to that footbrake... But I'm for sure getting used to the noiseless coasting.
I can really sneak up to people from behind and do a quick blitz-overtake 
When I pedal, the derailerwheel does make a subtle rattling noice, but it still is very quiet. Reminded me of The Blue Thunder's 'Wisper-mode'... I've also noticed some people checking out my bike. And there was this one guy that shouted: 'Mooie fiets!' (=Nice bike!) 
^ I put the pedals that were on my Cartboardtracker on this build and bought new ones to replace the others. Maybe I do some fabricating and make some custom pedals. If I've got some time soon....
^ As I said, the chain popped off of the chaintnesioner-thinghy I slapped on so I made a quick guard, just by bending another clamp over the one that was already on the chainstay. Hope the pics are clear enough to see how exactly: The inside clamp loops around the chainstay and holds the derailerwheel on one side. The outer clamp loops around the chainstay and holds the wheel on both sides. Making it rigid enough to brake.

Make sure you know ow many links you need before you order a half link. They are made short for bmx. I had to order another for my hustler build.
Half link. Being a half link... doesn't that make me need two times as much links as a normal chain...? I have some bmx specialist stores around town so I can check with them first. I'm not much of an internetbuyer. I want to go to the store and always see and touch what I want to buy...
Repost: Ofcourse. I'd be honoured if you do so... Just let me know.
One is enough to fine tune chain length for minimal slack.
