George, Drilling out the pins to expose the holes already present won't matter at all. Those holes are nothing compared to "back in the day" with the drillium craze ! The 60's weight weenies dream.

It's a rather self serving thing, that indexed shifting needs "aides" to help move the chain. Anyone that knows how to friction shift knows they are not needed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
