oRgsters,
I was talking with cAp the other day and we were thinking about how it used to be that when someone went down, the board would swarm to arms. The generosity was increadible! That seems to have died down a little; I am not certain exactly why.

I have added this forum for to co-locate all of the assistance threads; I have searched for the ones that I could find that were not specific assitance threads for individual members.

Please ensure that you read the notice up top as to what this forum is for - and maybe more importantly what it is not for. I also ask that you read the pinned donation thread, just so you know where the collective environment has been.

Anyway - please keep to the spirit - let's keep doing what makes this place great!

Thanks,
MCM

Seems to me, the downed bikes, lately, have been real wrecks, not just broken mirrors, levers, etc. The last minor event, I saw members donating parts for the repairs. There have been, lately, some real train wrecks. Can't remember the last minor drop or fall..........In addition, those that have donated parts possibly do not have any more to give away...........

Absolutely true... definately not a chastisment of any sort more a co-location for ease of search and posting. And that is true - there is always a limit to what people are both willing and/or able to give. This is just to continue getting the word out.

The widest you could go would be a 200, be sure and check the brand of tire too. You should have just enough room to clear the chain, just barely.
