Corrosion on chain and gears no matter how much I wash/wipe it down?



Team SKY shitmaNO FAIL bin.

Should be marked: Please indicates distance and vector shitmaNO was tossed from roadside.

That bin looks remarkably empty... Thanks for playing and finally excepting the truth. If you want you fail and your successes to be low - go Campagnolo.

For someone who fails so much I figured you need the video. greipelnolo squeezes into the gap that wasn't, too the left of Tony Martin, wipes out his fellow countryman and freewheels off up the road - minus a molded in jelly mold and crafted by washer women , rear mech. http://youtu.be/IZR2Y42iM_c Maybe he took that CU*T thing written on his bottom bracket seriously...
 
Increasingly FAIL quotes by Swami:
"That bin looks remarkably empty..."

NO one want stinky ass shitmaNO laying around smelling up the shop.

Wiggo, with an arm strong enough to wing craptastic Durs-Ass Doityerself2 up against a stone wall, was designated to...



shitmano...the only 'pro' level components craptastic enough to earn their own trash receptacle in a Pro Tour Service Course.

Jap.

Scrap.

****.

As proven time and time again by Team Sky.

And yet, shitmaNO trash bins are a sign of pride among the Koolaid drinkers.

How...awesome.
 
If Sky started breaking a ton of Shimano stuff you can bet your last dollar that Brailsford would be on the phone to Osaka and tearing someone a new asshole - a feat that would be easier if they were wearing your Harley Blue Oyster Club leather ass-less chaps - before telling them how to make their stuff better. Ever wonder why British Cyclings ~$50,000 wasn't kitted out with anything Campag - cause it's ****. ;)

Campag Record circa "the early 80's". So much fail it's hard to date it:


Snap


That's the most awesome crank fail ever. Close the thread now!

Crackle


Pop



Most cranks of one weakspot - Record records more - three at least! Better than the rest - better at breaking that is.

"El ****a del youo Mr Campagnolo"



Fignon's first Tour win in 1983 - not on Campagnolo - I wonder why? LOLz.

Campag record circa 2002.





Cast by monkeys - forged by noone.



Doing the splits - but not having to pay strippers dollar bills...



... and into the current bag of overpriced spaghetti.

I bet someone Hirthed their balls on the top tube when that fail happened. CU*T bearings!

This morning's FAIL is brought to by dura-ASS and the friendly chimpanzees at shitmaNO.

Yes...yet ANOTHER craptastic busted dura-ASS chain. So frequent an occurance that it's boring.



dura-ASS craptastic POS 11-speed cluster...****. Newest or oldest dura-ASS, it's all Jap, scrap and ****.




...and yet ANOTHER dura-ASS FAILure of the new 11-speed POS. oops! it FAILed.



Jap.

Scrap.

****.

It's as craptastic as the Koolaid shitmaNO users drink.
 
It's FAILday! All day long and EVERY day when you ride the shitmaNO FAIL train!

dura-ASS 7800. Welcome to FAILSville. Population: YOU.



All aboard the FAIL train!

From oldest to newest and everything in between, dura-ASS is FAILtastic! Weak 'POINT'??? Hell, the whole damned line is weak from top to bottom.



Woooo! Woooo! The FAIL train is now stopping at FAILSville and all poist East of CRACKed Alloy!



<YAWN!> More FAILed dura-ASS 7800...

 
$25 to fixa da craptastic dura-ASS FAILed bolt.



Da bolt. But, not just any old bolt. OLh hellz noe! Dis iz da dura-ASS craptastic Jap, scrap and **** bolt!



Look! RICE Krispies! It went Snpa, Crankle AND POP! Craptastic!



Yeah, that's a dura-ASS cassette.Thank God it's top-of-the-line shitmaNO!
 
Another craptastic shitmaNO dura-ASS deerailled deraileur with stripped out threads as a result of shitmaNO using stale marshmallows for aloominumb. Tossed into SKY's trash bin, no doubt!



More broken plastic on dura-ASS craptastic scrap.



Yeah...shitmaNO.

So craptastic stupid riders will kiss a house...or a rock.



Let's see that shitmaNO Toss again! So FAIL!

 
A FAILure at cycling, most mechanics just ate it. Craptastic ****. From shitmaNO.


 
The Hierarchy: Learn it. Live it.



Craptastic dura-ASS...always two groups behind. No wonder it's...cheap.



Yeah, shitmaNO is as dead as disco. Still, the Koolaid drinking white boys keep trying to do the Hustle.



Uh...dura-ASS...lack of performance when it matters most! Craptastic!



Let's review, shall we?

Jap.

Scrap.

****.

Made in Red China by ASS-less chap wearing, iPhone using, Toyoda Pious driving commies.

Craptastic!
 
Bob I know you are still ****** about the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor but just let it go.
 
Tighten that dura-ASS crank every day or risk "fall off the bicycle"! Craptastic design!




Seriously...your salvation is at stake.

As long as there's one ASS-less chap wearing Caleefornya Toyoda-driving (made from recycled Zekes!), iPhone user still riding shitmaNO, the Gospel MUST be spread to the heathens!

But they discovered 7075 Aluminium!

Quote: The first 7075 was developed in secret by a Japanese company, Sumitomo Metal, in 1936.[10] 7075 was used for the Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter's air frame


Btw thinking of going for Carbon for a more spectacular fail or Cro-mo on the next bike after that cracked fork.


Engine:
NK1C Sakae-12
Power:
Take-off: 940 HP
Indicated: 950 HP at 5,000 m


Armament:
• 2 x 7,7-mm Type 97 machine guns
• 2 x 20-mm Type 99 wing cannons
• 2 x 60 kg bombs


Advantages:
• Speed, maneuverability and range undreamed of by other contemporary carrier borne fighters;
• Good cockpit visibility.


Disadvantages:

• Poor pilot protection; <----- THEY TOOK THE ARMOUR OFF TO MAKE IT CLIMB FASTER!!!

• No self-sealing fuel tanks <----- ASIAN NEW YEAR FIREWORKS??????

Here they come!

The cockpit was a bullet magnet. Like shitmaNO, it lacked DURAbility.

Down in flames...just like dura-ASS.

And those craptastic Type 97 machineguns...what absolute garbage. At least the rising sun meatball makes a great gunnery target.

Sora! Sora! Sora!

shitmaNO didn't invent ****.

All they did was make craptastic copies and incorporate an extra measure of FAIL.

Campy was building dual-actuation electric and mechanical systems back in 1992...the era of Mavic's ZAP and Mechtronic systems. These were 8-speed units and were used by professional teams.




Leonard Zinn states a few basics:

Short history of Campagnolo electronic shift Giuseppe Dal Pra, the manager for groupsets, has worked on the Campagnolo electronic-shift project for 20 years — since 1992.
The eight-speed Campy electric rear derailleur had both an electrical wire connected to a servo motor, and a shift cable.

At the time, Mavic was up and running with its electric rear derailleur, and Campagnolo’s system started as an electro-mechanical one, relying both on cable pull and electric impulse. That method gave way to fully electronic systems with servo motors in each derailleur.
To also illustrate how long this has been, consider that the first Campy electric systems were in the era of eight-speed cogsets! Campagnolo also built nine-speed, 10-speed, and, now, 11-speed electric derailleurs.
Many of them were tested and raced upon by the various iterations of the Spanish Reynolds team (Banesto, iBanesto.com, Illes Balears-Banesto, Illes Balears-Caisse d’Epargne, Caisse d’Epargne-Illes Balears, Caisse d’Epargne, and, now, Movistar).
An interesting turn of events happened that changed the order of which company introduced electronic shifting to the market first. Campagnolo’s 10-speed electronic shift components were ready for the market in 2005, and it planned to introduce them. However, after a successful Giro d’Italia campaign with Illes Balears-Caisse d’Epargne, a number of the bikes failed to shift after being driven to Trento in driving rain at 150kph. The system worked after it was dried out again, but this is exactly the kind of thing that keeps electronic-shift engineers awake at night. This snafu stopped the progress dead in its tracks, as the company had other fish to fry and could not afford to devote resources to this project at the expense of its core business.
It continued to work on the system, but slowly. In 2009, Campagnolo introduced 11-speed drivetrains at a number of price levels, so all of that changeover, performed in secret, required the undivided attention of Dal Pra and other engineers.

Early 9-speed front derailleur:


A 9-speed rear derailleur...still far better looking than a shitmaNO 11-speed unit:


10-speed group that was almost made commercially available in 2005:


Early Movistar 11-speed from Campy tech lab:



Oh...and shitmaNO didn't invent index shifting. Suntour-Maeda did. And even that was just a derivative of two earlier systems from the USA and Germany.

God bless Campagnolo!
