When Al was alive he'd generally suggest, over the phone, that if the belt
stretched or something one could just return it to be rebonded... and of
course there was the famous lifetime warranty. No more, I guess. But I
took from the exchange the insight that rebonding was not a particularly big
deal, and there's no part of the belt that's a problem other than the bond,
after all. .01 cent a day or not, if it's an expense one need not occur then
what's the sense of blowing 20 bucks? I'd rather buy someone I like a good
meal.
Anyway thanks for the reasonably gracious answer. If Dave Astor is typical
of the racing crowd, it needs a few more adults. (And I'm paying way too
much attention to Cyclism, Lance or no Lance.)
