Grey.

1. They don't bother.
2. There's no specific fine for it.

Just what I think, your mileage might vary.

Hmmm anyone with any FD to recommend :?: ... Theres quite a choice out there... Wanna reduce the drop in rpm to slightly below 700 between every gear shift... Currently its a 1k rpm drop between shifts... :shock:

I dont think u can improve on that, given 6 speed or higher fd... the drop still 1k for a shift.
