Let It Be

When I put any sort of fastener onto a euro/asian bike, I use metric. I
know some of you have put standard on some things. I've had several
bikes where the previous owner has used standard bolts and nuts. It does
get a bit goofy when you are trying to make a metric socket fit over a
standard bolt/nut. Just my two cent worth. I am a bit strange though...

Do any of you all live in the Chicago area? Our group has something
happening on Wed night. Ping me off list.

While some may helicoil and some may insert studs, I much prefer the
