You really don't think it's your fault, do you? Chris King hubs? So what? They're noisy, but not as noisy as if you had called out that you were passing. And if the guy had in ear-buds of some sort and was listening to music, he wouldn't have heard you anyway.
You were passing. It's your responsibility to make a safe pass. If the other person turns into you because they didn't look, it's still your fault. You have to leave room to maneuver if needed.
