My front derailers are no where near my front tires.

Sheldon would have an answer.


Indeed. Where is A. Muzi?

But what is this about bars ? Is the bar problem ergonomic or does a
cable routing problem exacerbate shifter capability?


I find bar stools to be unergonomic. Actually, any seat should allow for
at least a 40° [1] recline from the horizontal.

I guess spreading the barbecue frame, add an inner plate for an axle
stop...an Azonic steelhead screws into the outside. ugly ugly ugly.
If I break a leg a steel azonic is in.
I bought a 531 FD.
The yellow Monodog has an attitude that sez: 500cc single.

Dear Andrew,

You might try the free www.motzarella.org text-only news server.

It's worked fine for me since Comcast gave up on usenet last month,
and a few other posters have been pleased with it, too.

Cheers,

Carl Fogel

Default FAT TIRE with dropout spacers ?

not difficult grinding two out. Maybe drill a pin in from the
dropout’s top edge ?
