STANDARD TRAVEL ORYG ***DEFLOPITATION*** INSTRUCTIONS
">First, we're assuming you have 2 nickels and a dime in your pocket.
>Second, we assume you know what you're doing.
>Third, we assume your detangler and cables are in good working order.
>Fourth, these instructions are like driving directions:

Does the term DEFLOPITATION really exist or is it just a creation of some "marketing creative mind"? I really have troubles to find it in a dictionary. What does it mean? Is it some "make the flop (failure) reverse, i.e. deal with it or repair it"?

In this context, the brake lever handles and/or brake cables may "flop around". Thus "deflopitation" means to ensure the cables are taut.
