Oh, forgive me, but this bike is very dirty as I haven't had a chance to clean it from it's winter rides. Also, I am planning on changing the fork and stem/headset and making it a fixie this summer. Tell me what you think.

the chrome fork looks pretty sweet on the ciocc. i swapped out my red track fork for a chrome one that's drilled for a front brake... it doesn't look half bad staying with that old school colour scheme. any idea if you're going to replace the rear hub, cog choice, etc.?

Hey guys! Those LEVEL COMPONENTS hubs are ready! They are being shipped from level to me this week. We should have them in stock by mid next week. So for those who were interested, either drop me a line, or stop by and see Keith at Cavern Cycles
Have a great week!
Have a great week!

Nope that's CAVERNMECH, but Keith is the only shop in Toronto who carries the LEVEL Hubs. I am ROB from Bikeophile (and I am the distributor for Level)

Bikeophile is run by a buddy of mine named Rob. He does mail order/internet sales. I run the Cavern and Rob and I do business together. I help him out with tech stuff, mechanics and the like. We are both small operators and kind of joined forces as we dont have the clout of the big shops when it comes to buying power. Generally speaking we both carry similar lines but with Rob doing all the on-line stuff. It has been a good arrangement allowing us to serve people in a retail environment and on-line as well. This has also allowed us to join forces in our pursuit of the hand-built custom track bike line we are currently working on. Hope this clears up any confusion. K.

nice, the level hubs are the ones where the cog bolts to the hub body instead of threading onto it right?? (like a disc rotor)
how much are you selling them for? I'd like to check em out.

The MSRP for the Rear Hub (From the Manufacturer is $220USD). We have talked to them have been able to offer them for $205 CANADIAN.
The Front Hub will be selling for $125 Canadian
As of today, Level has not shipped the order to us yet. So I am not sure the exact date they will be in. Hopefully within the next week or two. I know that there are folks (like Shiznaz) who want wheels by Keith, so the day they arrive there will be stock given to Cavern.
You can check them out on level's website (www.levelcomponents.com)
or check them out on my site under HUBS
