So some of you know when we bought bikes last June my husband ordered them from http://dynamicbicycles.com because he didn't want to fool with chains, and he thought chainless technology had to be superior.
We've had no issues with the chainless aspect, but my bike doesn't fit and the only way to get one that does truly fit is to get fitted and test-ride, etc. (all of which I wanted to do last year).
But that means -- chains. When I was told my bike was too small, my husband just wanted to know why I didn't buy the next size chainless? Well, because even then, I don't know that it's a good "fit." Geometry, etc.
But ... well, I figure if I get a bike with chains, it's gonna be my problem to deal with and I'm not very techy so that has me more than a tad nervous. People write about dropping chains and adjusting chains, etc. and I don't know how often this happens, what makes it happen, and how big a deal it is to fix.
Also, when discussing doubles and triples, is that doubling/tripling the likelihood of problems?
I'd like a little bit of base info, here. Especially from those of you who aren't techy -- did you find it's not a big deal, or do you leave it up to your SO or DH to handle, or bike shop?
Thanks!
