Hi JEDI MASTER (Jim),
I am so glad to have you on this list. You always add one step on to
everyone's reasoning, even mine. After all these years, I'm still learning
from you. I still cherish the few months that I worked with you in Portland.
I've shared that experience with so many on the list.
Your comments about stainless dropouts were dead on. My preferred dropouts
were Suntour GS (when I can get them). They have more metal, and from what I
was told, cr-mo. But I really prefer stamped lugs for the reasons that you
stated, and because they can be carved and modified more easily. I've got a
stock pile of French & English sizes (Bocama).
Well, again, thanks for your comments.
Your Jedi
Student
