The possibility of 39t chainring for Campy NR/SR? I also used to own one
of the legendary Campy 41t rings and it bounced a bit on the spider arm
bolts. I am no math major but if the ratio of the circumference to diameter
of a circle is, what 3.14? and we reduce the circumference by 1" (for two
teeth at 1/2" pitch, that's close enough) the diameter is now reduced by
1/3.14 or .318 inches. Further dividing by 2 to get the radius yields .159"
or about 5/32" closer in. Hmmm, hard to believe there's that much room.
Besides, somebody hereabouts would have seen one as well. Kudos, Dale for
trying to reign in this guy, but as others told me, complaining to Ebay gets
you.... nowhere.
Sometimes I fantasize about a CR seal of approval, a real, legal trademark
if you will, that could be used with license by reputable sellers ( ahem, I
hope to qualify ) and sanctioned by...Dale? I dunno, but maybe it could come
to mean something if sellers were allowed to place said logo in their
adverts and auctions.
Like the old "Good Housekeeping seal of approval". Only now it the "Good
Cycle Merchant seal" or something far more clever. I would even PAY a small
annual fee, and I know Dale could put the money to use.
Thanks,
Richard Bulissimo, Verdi, Nevada.
and next May...(perhaps)
Riccione? Matteo want come over and ride?
