Jokes on them...this customer wants to buy out of warranty so he can mod it. :)

Looks like they didn’t even blow their whole load here either. They saved the extended warranty pressure sale for when you actually arrived at the dealership.

Or you could have bought this:

Greatly increases corrosion risk. How much will depend on the specific alloy.

The anodization is mostly cosmetic but there is some serious pitting on there that could potentially compromise durability. I don’t know that these parts are subjected to sufficient forces for it to become an issue, but it is certainly a lot of pitting.

OK 1, that’s super cool and thanks for sharing... 2, most of shimano’s stuff pre-11 speed is super cross compatible so you might be able to use an older shimano 105 long cage derailleur, which is already swoopy and silver and looks a LOT like that old xt- fair to say you could paint the front of the parallelogram…

And Hitler had Ford’s portrait in his office? And Ford Germany gave Hitler 35,000 marks as a little 50th birthday present in 1939? Oops. Oh there’s…

Tesla was still a possibility for me until this. He may be brilliant in some aspects but like a 13 year old son of a white supremist Trump supporter in way too many other ways. I look forward to many more, better, options in the future.

Elon is going to end up in prison. And it will be his fault.

Hate to break it to ya about ol’ Henry...
