Would-Be Brick Disaster, Averted. What's Your Story?
« on: August 26, 2017, 12:05:09 PM »
Assumably, we all like to think of ourselves as half-way descent mechanics. Even when we started-out, we knew we'd be able to pull stuff off if we studied, researched and prepared; regardless of the endeavor. With all of the due diligence I gave this bike on reassembly, I missed someting that could've proven disasterous.


Do you notice what's not there to be noticed?


Humbling as it is, what's your story?
