You don't need to "drill" anything. The Vigorelli fork has a plugged brake hole and that plug can be punched out very easily. Aside from that, your $800 Cinelli frameset isn't made of 14k gold.

Maybe you should know what you're talking about. My bike indeed has a "plug" of polymer resin, however the outside is painted in enamel and covered in a clear coat. And since I'd never sell this bike to a hipster, the only folks who would buy it are my track friends, and drilling out the bullseye leaves a chipped and unsightly hole and thus a 100€ discount. Crazy as that sounds I know exactly what I'm talking about.

I hope the OP is an angsty teen who's been riding for less than 3 months. There is no other excuse for this sort of behavior.

This guy. Do French mothers not hug their children?
Does my being sensible and correct put your beret in a bunch? You can flex as hard as you want behind your clavier but as someone who does a ton of direct business with EAI, I maintain the fact that they do not make a stamped alloy cog.

Since the OP took his toys and went home, it's time to close the thread.
