Snapping Arse indeed!
No stripped threads. And, unless I was on the day of original assembly
somehow abducted by aliens and turned into an idiot, there's not a whole lot
that can be put together wrong (though I've seen the o-rings in the wrong
place).
I will indeed keep a close eye on it. Hopefully that close eye will not, at
some point, involve watching an axle and wheel pass me on the road.
Thanks Allan
