Very rarely does anyone take a guess on this list since it's full of "experts" giving "expert" answers. I also think this keeps the non-experts from posting to the list.<

Let's see... there are Experts, "experts," "so called experts" and non-experts ???

Sounds like Paul Schaffer on the Letterman show talking about the difference between a "Master Craftsman" and a "Mawwwster Crawwwftsman".

I have been on this list from the start, and I don't think anyone here (including myself) look upon themselves as Experts, (I'll just ignore the insulting "experts" in quotes remark).

We are all here because we have a passion for bicycles and a thirst for more knowledge about same. Any list lives or dies by the contributions of its members. Contribute or don't contribute, it is entirely up to you, the members...
