    Hi,
    Happy to say that I won my Ebay Giraffe 5 foot Torker Unistar TX and
    picked it up in Seattle this morning!

    NOW:

    I've heard about the sprockets slipping and the handedness of the
    sprocket threading being of issue. I don't want any equipment related
    UPDs, so I am looking for suggestions for what I should test for
    tightness. looseness, what needs to be disassembled and reassemmbled
    with locktite, grease etc etc.

    Thanks!
    Blake

    Hey there, e3.

    Thanks for posting word of that auction. I love a deal, especially if
    it's something I can hurt myself on. I mean... I'd hate to pay a lot for
    a broken arm, you see! 🙂

    I also wondered how tight the chain should be!
    Thanks!
