Re: Parts started falling off my bike today!

My first bike had a case of loose boltitis. Was miles from home is the bush and luckily(read accidently) realized what the problem was. Tightened it up and homeward bound. Checked over the bike the following day and snugged up every nut and bolt I could find. As a rule ever since I go over every bike for loose stuff and have never had a failure. A little preventative wrenching goes a long way for reliability. Riders have to be more conscious of the state of repair their bike is in compared to cagers. Their life may depend on it.
