I actually got this stuff Monday, but was hoping I could upload pics of it - still no dice there.

So, thanks go out to poprad for the cool bottle-opener-style US Embassy Regional Security Office (Luxembourg) challenge coin and to qcpmsame for the care package full of cool cycling magazines and crossword puzzle books

A replacement crown race for the one I mangled when I tried to remove it. Don't use a Campag race removal tool on a Shimano 7410 crown race.

That's a great idea with the pink hoods! I don't have any pink on my bike but I'm rooting for your little sister too!
Let's beat the big "C" once and for all!

Interesting. I just shipped a 7800 crankset+bb this morning. I don't have the dust cap tool either. I scrounged my around in my pile-o-junk and found a square-ish quick release lever of approximately the right width and just gently removed it.



I figured I've made it this far in life without the special tool, I probably won't need it again until I'm about 97. I took the frame to my LBS to remove the Hollowtech bottom bracket things.

A tool for a modern Shimano external BB. I decided to try it out and was a little surprised how loose I'd installed the cups without the proper tool. I then used the dust cap and the tool for it that I got yesterday to get everything secured properly.

I've been waiting for a package from England since 2/15. The last one (PBK's free shipping) took 33 days.
I think they're using carrier pigeons to bring the stuff over. It's free, so no biggie, but I could use the parts.

Thanks for the info, Robbie. Makes me think twice about using them in the future...
