No idea, but I suppose they might be more likely to suffer from things like strokes? Anyone know if there is any data?

So it's it true about the free food if you've summitted?

Can't remember the details but your name goes on a board (photo or something) and you get a card for the club. Something like that. Good food and local beer.

I fitted a cheap 9 speed Alivio 12/36 cassette to my older 9 speed Spesh Roubaix, in combination with a 9 speed Deore M.T.B. rear mech, and the bikes 9 speed Sora shifters. It all works. The intriguing thing is though that the cheap Alivio sprockets are 'bendy' when levered with the blade of a screwdriver.(Metal bending - no free play in cassette.) This slightly affects the changing at times.
It changes properly over the full cassette range when changing down, i.e. from smaller sprockets to larger, because of the ramps, but is sometimes hesitant in changing back up, i.e. from the larger sprockets in particular to the next smaller one, but only over the three bigger lower gear sprockets. There is no hesitation changing across the higher geared end of the cassette where that sprockets are smaller and less bendy.
