DeTomaso Mailing List: December 2000, Message #114

Nolan,

     I raced bicycles as a youngster and would spend most of my paycheck on
titanium hubs, crank spindle and assorted bolts just to drop a few grams off
my bike's weight.  While on a training ride I was pointing out all of the
neat (and expensive!) parts to my buddy when he asked me why I didn't just
eat a little less loose a couple pounds and save my money?

Ouch!
Mark
