Does Retrogression have any plans to get some single strap leather clips? I don't like doubles and my LBS's only stock nylon ones for some reason -.-

Ordered some today. They'll be here by the end of the week.

Im going to support retrogression soon.

Wait...wouldn't it have been cheaper to just buy unbranded Andels?

Da eff @ $10 price increase on Omnomz.

Had to. :(

The only time we increase prices is when our cost goes up. We're still cheaper than just about everyone else!

This is true!

Because we're tiny in the grand scheme of things, it means we don't get large volume discounts and behind-the-scenes closeout deals like some other large retailers. We try like hell to keep prices low on the site - which naturally means less profit - but I'm much more concerned with being able to offer this stuff to people at a reasonable price than with foolishly thinking we're going to get rich selling bike parts and t-shirts.

**** "boutique" stores and big thanks to everyone here for your ongoing support.

Bikeisland no long sells $160 omnomnomnom's...

There's a newer revision out with a revised GXP BB. Supposedly reduced seal drag.

Which leads me to ask; Scrod are yours the older models? (points at cheep price)

Nitto bars? :D

Older models for now. New ones on the way but there may be a slight price increase.

Checking on those damn Nitto RB-002s is on my list of things to do before the end of the week (Angie keeps bugging me about it too so it's not like I can forget)!

This is old news. Scrod timed it well (intentionally or not) and now offers the lowest price on new Omniums (minus eBay, sometimes [but not for black ones]).

I was holding off on pulling the trigger 'til those RB-002s arrived, but I really can't buy anything at all until I sell some bike mess. :(

I thought you didn't do the nononononononononono'ing through.

andels make external bb cranks now?

Yeah...you have them (but they sport Origin 8 logos).

I guess they would've been more money than what you paid though:

http://www.benscycle.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=188_193_660&products_id=8187

Is that Andel crankset compatible with GXP BBs?

I'm 99.9% certain it is.

Not digging the new drop down boxes on the right side. :(

I have mixed feelings about them too but the lists were taking up too much space. Something else is in the works.

Always keeping us on our toes, I see.

Do you have any idea on the pricing of the RB 002s? I've been digging drops lately, so idk if I'm still going to pounce on them right when they hit your site.

No idea on price but we'll do the best we can.

$239

Maybe you guys should stock some Spocks, the aero kind.


The drop down menu is cool but I think the "new stuff" should remain as a bulletin board for convenience. It's only a click or two but some people are lazy.

We did just get an account with a certain company who makes certain aerodynamic boat anchors, so it may happen soon. They're kinda weird to deal with though. :lol:

I think we're going to change the menus so they appear when you hover over the titles.

Wait, is it one of those "hover over then move my cursor over it to click and if I miss, I have to do it again" menus?

I'll sport a boat anchor with Retrogression swag for yah Scrod!

No.

..

I notice you're out of the black MKS Sylvan Track pedals and the 1.5s - I don't suppose you sell another black pedal that'll take a strap and/or toe clip?

Sylvans? We just got a bunch in before the holiday. I'll check on it and fix the inventory.

If you mean Odyssey Twisteds and V1.5s...another batch of straps is in production right now. We're selling those mother****ers like crazy!

Probs because the price is way better than anything else comparable.

Time to raise the price! http://www.myemoticons.com/images/hobbies-leisure/gambling/money-3.gif

I'm kidding.

Nice! I thought about the mid but for that much cheaper the new clamp doesn't matter for me. What color did you get?
