I beg to differ. Except for the rubber bits and the long-term desiccation of the grease/oil, a bike really has an infinite shelf- life. More so for a steel and aluminum bike such as the XO-1. As such, the years spent in a box or hung up aren't necessarily wasted per se, but merely spent "sleeping". Perhaps it's wasted because you or I did not spend our more youthful days riding it. :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
