Much as I think that the hype
Much as I think that the hype over driverless cars is ridiculous, there could eventually be some benefits. For a computer POWER is not the answer. The decision is one hell of a lot faster. There is no need to move the foot from the accelerator to the brake to even start the braking process.
Braking should start sooner, and (maybe, hopefully) they driverless vehicle will not be breaking the speed limit so that the initial speed and energy will be lower.

I have seen it on Police Inrterceptors, with John “wrong uns” Thompson. They are gutted, but as I remember it, it is not seized for long.

I did see Ed or it could have been Ant doing this on a stud that had broken in an engine on Wheeler Dealers.

I did manage to take out one of the teeth on my 14 tooth cog on my 8 speed XTR cassette, a bit gutted because it was a wonderful discovery on ebay, there are places out there that sell single cogs, takes some finding but they are out there. Managed to get a 9 speed shimano XTR version that required a shim/spacer.
Lot’s of chinesse parts out there, or there were when I last looked, and a few branded ones. SP59/BtBS had a fine collection of individual cogs as I remember, he showed a picture, I was jealous.
Drilling the bb shell seems a
Drilling the bb shell seems a bit much, tilting the frame back so that any water drians out of the chain stay holes in the bb shell and out of the weld holes at the end of the chain stays would seem like an easier thing.
Or removing the seat post and turning her upside down every so often?
As they wear and age the
As they wear and age the bushings develop play. Have a little go at the old and new one, you will be able to twist the older one, so the movement isn’t just in the parallelogram.
The twist is most at the cage, where you want accuracy for shifting well.

Not that it’s anywhere as safety critical but some of my silver Nokon beads were turned to dust over a few years, Good Bike too, so not used a huge amount. Though it was the bike I would fit my spike tyres to, front sus and ceramic braking surface, which helped in ice and snow, but of course, more salty filth.
I’m using a pre and post winter dousing in ACF50 for my new set for full run Rohloff cables, and in black anodised too, which may provide a better surface.
