Dark Diggler:
flip flop sounds better than cassette to me, easier to manufacture too, leaving the freewheel choice to the punter also makes sense, some go cheap shyte, some go O/S some will do shimano or if they have cashola whyte industries.

Cheap cassette's made to a price point aint good.

We might just put out a few alloy flange wheels for the die-hards out there.

The machine was cleaned up, oiled up ... and plugged in............. excitement filled the air as memories of 1979 rushed through everybody's minds...

PUFF!  A bright light... a cloud of smoke.... then flames.  Gears grinded to an extreme halt.  BANG!

The fire alarms rang.... and the fire was put out.

The excitment that had been felt all day long leading to this point died suddenly.

"No more rivetted in hubs" sobbed the head engineer......

And with that... the machine was pushed back outside to spend an eternity back in the storage warehouse.

Bummer.

I would imagine that the macine that made them over here is still around somewhere so it may not all be lost. ;)

Paging an Orbital Riviter!!  Paging an Orbital Riveter!!  The stainless steel rivets are waiting in the lobby.

The guys at KHE say they have one.  We shall see.
