A great find, thanks for posting. ( but all I could find in the 'purely mechanical' chapter were references to Bowden brakes! ) Sigh. Things like this keep me humble. I don't know whether to blame it on hypoxia (could be, ya never know), age, the really good, cheap 9.5% ABV beer the Polish deli down the street sells, or general stupidity. Probably a combination. Thanks for pointing out my egregious error. My apologies. It is a fun read, though, isn't it? I think I might use it as a field guide if/when I ride in the Alps. I'd like to have a hard copy on hand to point out to the locals where I'm trying to go. That would be good for a few laughs. R |
