rusty/corroded(?) small parts
Fasteners, washers, bushings & spoke nipples are all degrading. Anything made of steel. Comes w/age, I guess, but I try to take good care of it. I'm forced to replace the front brake cause it's actually locking up (rust inside). Did I do anything wrong? I realize components don't last forever.....
Ref: 2005 c'dale bad boy; maybe 17,000 miles; all original parts cept tires, pads, chain; I use q tips/hairdrier after a wet ride
