[fstrthnu]

I am feeling foclempst... I'll give you a topic. Disc Brakes... Are they UCI legal in 2006-2007 for cyclocross? Talk amongst yourselves.


Confused,

Dude,

It's verklempt (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=verklempt).

As far as the UCI disc brake thang, I dunno.

[obtuse]

they're illegal for uci events. what this means is YOU can't use'em. the little lady surely can because she doesn't hold a uci license and no one is going to give a shi'ite unless she plans to race pro races sanctioned by the uci which require her to take out a uci license.

verstehst me?

check out uci.ch/imgArchive/Rules/1gene-E.pdf

scroll to page 64 i think. that's the rules as of 5/12/2005 which are the latest.

Obtuse,
Thank You. Didn't see this before I posted. I will ask Gaydam Myerspace tommorow. UCI headhoncho imho.

P.S. My girl will be UCI material soon. Who has a tiny cross bike to sell me?

How tiny?

I'm guessing that little Hot Tubes bike that Gabe Anthony was on at Gloucester will be for sale by next season when the kid grows.

Stu Thorne has a kids size Red Line cross bike on the floor at Bay Road Bikes in Hamilton, MA as well.

Or, you could wait for atmo to build you one. ;)
