  • But a picture speaks a thousand words. How??

    Someone used a ball-head allen key. It just so happens that if you drop one in it rests on something below the top-cap that puts the tapered part of the key just where you don't want it...where it can't bite... and you just cut the top-cap up instead.

  • It was you. Wasn't it? Haha.

    I'll pass this information onto the person putting my new one together tomorrow/Thursday... Thank you.

    It's one of those things, you'd expect a home mechanic to do this kinda thing. Not somebody who is paid to do it as a job... Or at least hold their hands up having known they'd done it and not ship it's as a new bike for a customer.

    Anyway,
    '"redacted" are shit thread' is more appropriate for this. (There is probably one)

    Ride home from the station was nice though.

  • What bother me is that how much force it been put through, a component that doesn't need such force.

  • Usually when people want to be a mechanic, they're put through bike building and the occasional puncture repairs, after a year or two, start doing repair/Cytech 2.

    Methinks it's probably a kids who gotten overexcited.
