Ah yes. I should had thought about that. I've spent my 20+ years on a bike blissfully free of the horrors of index shifting.
I met Mr. White with a nice woman I assume is his wife at the Indiana NAHBS. A bike I am putting together this fall will have a White crank, bottom bracket and freewheel. I would have built it with a White rear hub as well (front hub will be a SON28) but I have a Royce hub and do not want to waste it. Cyclists are lucky to have companies such as White, Paul, Nitto, Berthoud and Royce. I hope they all managed to keep going for many years to come. > > On the contrary, both have built rear derailiers (and they were silver > of course).
