You wanna talk about my bottom bracket? My double butting? The stiffness of my frame?

Ma p'tit chou. . .

 

He probably suffers from "quick release."

??? Alta Vista's translation utility returns: "My p' tit cabbage "

It's as if the French have a different word for _everything_!

Alta Vista does not translate all "subtilities" of a language.

"Mon p'tit chou" should translate more like "My little honey" ...

"My p'tit cabbage" ?!?... ;-) don't worry, we also smile at some "English to French"
cyber-translation :-D

Talking "language", I wonder why english speaking cyclists use the French word "panniers" for
bicycle bags. Actually, in French "paniers" means : basket ...

The French word for bicycle touring bags is: "sacoches"

By the way, I'm looking for new sacoches (or "panniers). Anybody ever heard of or used ARKEL
"panniers" ? If yes, do you think that's a good and reliable choice for a 3-4 weeks self-supported
ride off road, in the bush, far from "Nowheretown" ? Any suggestions ?

I am very impressed with the Arkel panniers et. al. They appear to be very well thought out,
designed, and excellently constructed.
