Default XTR M960: Beyond diminishing returns

i know doing this is illegal and possibly a felony in the world of
newsgroups, but...

i'm still waiting to hear which 5 cranks were snapped.

i agree with the statement regarding the type of riding and skill
(lack of actually) as major factors.

Well, on my newsreader you started a NEW thread, with no references/quotes
