New Chainless bike design

Can anyone else not see the video? The ad plays just fine (of course ), but the video never starts. I tried watching it last night, too.

personally I don't find cleaning the chain after every ride, lubbing it every 150 miles and replacing it every 2500-5000 miles or once a year (whichever comes first) all that onerous a task.

As for grease and dirt stains- I wear black shorts so I can always just spit on my hands and wipe them on my legs and no one knows the difference. I consider chain tattos a badge of honor and I check my clothes when they come off my body and or before washing and hit those little chain smudges with simple green which takes care of any remianing dirt.

I'm just saying......

You clean your chain after every ride? Oh my.

I'm kinda lazy about that and not real persnickity about having a perfectly clean bike, especially living in an apt. where there's no great place to do bike maintenance. I was better about it when we lived in a house had a garage, but still didn't do nearly as much as you do. I never cleaned the chain without re-lubing, but that was more like every 500 miles (unless I rode in some really bad conditions).

I'd still love a bike where none of that was necessary b/c it's more than just cleaning the chain, it's the cassette, crankset, pullies, etc etc. Lots of work with a toothbrush and many rags later, it looks great, but takes me quite awhile. Just not my favorite activity, though I know some really enjoy wrenching and bike maintenance. Don't get me wrong; it's worth it to get to ride!

It works fine for me (using Firefox). Strange that the ad would work and not the video! Sorry...
