I just spent the better part 4 hours cleaning my bike… and it’s still dirty. The colours are a tad washed out due to cellphone camera, but it’s easy enough to see that my rear sprocket is gold. Before I started, it was black as my chain still is. My chain is actually the same colour gold as the sprocket, but that’s going to take another 2 hours to clean.

Oh, and you can actually see how badly the chain is sagging. It would suck rocks if that thing jumped the sprocket, I guess I should adjust it some.
