Re: Meet the people who built your bike

This time I watched the whole video. I was able to recognize/remember many of the procedures shown.
If that was a wobble test, it can't work in any way. You could see the compression of the forks to make sure that they would move. That is one of the several tests that I brought up to the engineers as faulty. We stopped the production line only once for me to show something.
When I finished the 3 hour tour of the assembly line, I was amazed that the bike even worked as well as it did.
I showed them the mistake in wire routing and the proof of it in the frame stampings at the rear brake switch. They believed me as they could see it and "hadn't noticed it" but they never corrected it in all those years later. We had to fix all of them as they came out of the crate. It was only a few minutes wasted.
