And are you really going to carry a spare and change it on the side of the road as someone mentioned?

All 2 piece pulleys are NOT made by the same manufacturer.


Yes, if I had a pulley fail while on a tour, I would change it on the side of the road if it was a 2 piece and I had a spare with me.


A few years ago, one of the participants of a tour in Utah changed a head gasket on the side of the road.


Changing a 2 piece pulley would be simpler than a head gasket but you better have a GOOD wrench for the crank ratchet bolt.


My opinion,
