Cassettes

[2Loose]

If Ianrauk has cleaned it already, it could make some very interesting pastry\cookie cutters.

You DO use Milton's steriliser don't you Ian?

You're missing out, battered. There's great fun to be had in reassembling a cassette especially campag ones that have individual cogs. You can even put the cogs in a different order for a bit of a laugh!

I knew there was some fun to be had. I've got SRAM bits on the "tourer", they are individual. This enables me to (in theory) only replace the worn cogs when the chain starts slipping. Y'see, all I need fo't' rebuild is a brake refit, new forks, transmission, and apart from t'wheels bein' a bit worn, and that's nowt, it's all right, so it's too good ter brek, really, aye...

(Apologies to everyone other than Alun, it's an in joke aimed at a mutual friend.

I remove the cassette every couple of months on all bikes to give them a really good clean, and also the hub a good clean at the same time, sad, but I quite enjoy such jobs.

If you put a cog in the oven for an hour or so you can do some really cool home made tattoos on your thigh.

Also pop the chain in the oven aswell, it'll look great on the neck..

Must admit I really enjoyed it, an hour passed without me even noticing .....
