@ascentale@sfba.social @pete@masto.hypertelia.com @bikenite@fedigroups.social A5. Nothing currently out of action, but a few years ago, my cyclo-cross bike was out of action for around six weeks in the midst of the season. I tore off the rear mech in a race, trashing it and the mech hanger in the process. It's an unfortunately typical cyclo-cross occurrence. The delay was caused by a shop's inability to order the correct replacement hanger. This was the shop that sold me the bike, so no excuse for ordering the wrong one more than once. After that, I bought a second cyclo-cross bike to cover such eventualities in the future. And typically, since then I have never needed that bike as a back-up! #BikeNite #Cycling #CycloCross
