... on these bicycle things ...
... just learned that shimano 10-pitch lock rings are differant than normal
shimano track lock rings.
... that thin cups are differant than thick cups on italian bb's. and
other makes are indecipheral.
... that some track bikes have differant seat post sizings, as do the seat
rail widths.
... need i say bearing sizes ... metric vs whatever, euro shoe and jersey
sizes, etc.
... thank goodness the pasta from my local store comes out the same length
:)
... but dang ... how is someone supposed to acquire this knowledge outside
of a normal life, obligations, etc. no wonder nobody rides these things
... would sooner have to deal with and older alfa romeo ... or any any
british make, like a morgan, that leaks in the rain ... which is what it
doing here now.
... rant off.
