    Thanks, I did not know that. So .. no problem now that I know. Must admit I have not scragged before ( sheltered youth) but it will not be any more scary than setting the rear forks on a cycle frame to accept various block spacings ... now that is scary as you see the forks bend outwards ....

    Well, putting it that way makes scragging sound like a very naughty pursuit!

    It makes boinging sound like a very innocent affair in comparison.
