Sorry if this is old news, I just stumbled upon this. Found it sort of ridiculous. :rolleyes:

LOL. Someone with more money than brains probably took some spokes out and filed a complaint. :rolleyes:

How many Six owners do you think are going to go in for that repair?

Spoke protector disc??? What's that??? Should probably put one on the Colnago, maybe the Look as well, would hate to fall down. :beer:

Wow, I can't believe I missed this. Fantastic. I believe I might be missing one on my Pegoretti as well. Will stop by the LBS to confer, posthaste.

I actually considered starting a pie plate/dork disc wall for a minute. It's when I had a campy, simplex and suntour one starring at me in my shop. Maybe I can horde all the recalled ones too!

It's always been the case, (since the 1970's when these things were introduced), that spoke protectors are not needed if the LBS adjusts the RD properly.

That's it. I'm putting all the pie plates I have sitting around back on my bikes tonight. Thank you CPSC for being such a good mommy.
