Thanks!
I've got no experience with it, Just going by what I've read, mostly from Sheldon. Yours is the most encouraging thing I've read....give me a bit of hope for it
Interestingly enough, mine has an oil port, perhaps keeping it oiled up wont be such an issue
and check out the Shimano alternative to the SA selector chain...i think its pretty cool.
