I hate corrosion. Rust forming in and on allen bolts, brake mountings, straddle cables, headset parts, spokes and nipples. Aluminium oxidation too. If it cannot be made good, it has to be replaced. And kept good with the careful application of lubes and potions. Corrosion is the sign of the carelessness and a lack of concern for the future. It has no place on a machine.
I will not retire to the seaside.
