Hey Michael,
Thanks for the nice clarification. I think I get what you mean now.
I would never dream of asking you to move your straddle cable. What works
works and that's an irrefutable tautology. The explanation or rational
about why it works, now thats where I have been know to dive badly

I had rotator cuff surgery several years ago. I was back at work in a
month (no sling) and riding my bike in a couple of months.
Don't wait until your surgery to do the rehab. Stretch and do the weight
work now.
Like Michael says, there's a pretty good chance all you need to do is rehab

Have you considered getting Paul Motolites? I hated cantis and then switched to
V-brakes, but struggled to find a reliable, high-performance V-brake. The
Motolite is just that: powerful, reliable and of course pretty. I added a brake
booster to the front and they are dynamite now.

I agree with Steve about being rigorous with the PT, Cecily. Six months sounds
like a long time, even for a full replacement. I had a double replacement in
2010. I was on the stationary, mostly for range of motion, a few minutes at a
time, after, I think, a couple of weeks. I was on my road
Old style freewheel hubs with loose ball bearings are easy to respace, and
yes it would be best to re-dish afterwards. You add a spacer on the drive
side and remove the same amount on the non-drive side.

Thanks for this exposition. I understand this approach. The downside of it
is that to get it right you must do some trig to keep track of the
variation in the tangent force magnitude. The tension in the straddle wire
increase the flatter it gets. Of course you never get near the theoretical

Tools used for cutting or chasing BB threads are used enough that there is

For micro-adjust seat clamps, Thomson is the gold standard. Once you
tighten Thomson clamps up, they stay put. As long as the modern look (and
the price) is tolerable, they're a safe bet.
Unfortunately, Thomson has cut back on the range of options they offer
under 27.2. They used to offer all
You could get a 26.8mm diameter seapost (the Nitto model you mentioned is

If you mean a set back two bolt post like a Nitto S-83, that might be
harder to find. If you mean two bolt without setback like a Thomson, that
will be easy. Just type 26.6mm seatpost in ebay and buy the one you like.
