Off to la belle France in a few weeks. Was wondering if anybody knew whether the red/white bike rack hazard board is mandatory yet in France? My understanding was it was only so in Italy (curious how Fiamma happen to be an Italian company) and that other countries (inc France) had not made them mand...

Thanks for all your tips people! Sounds like the freezing spray is the way to go. I can't really see how banging a tapered file tang into a parallel hole is any better than an Ezi-out, they're both tapered, so will wedge the stud in the hole, and they're both likely to break and leave a nasty remnan...

It usually happens after some kind of lifting off on the pedal (e.g. coming up to a roundabout or set of traffic lights aft...
