Thanks for the tip Cavernmech. Hopefully they have some in stock. On a related note, do 1 inch threaded steerer tubes use a standard pitch. What size die might be used on that?

Alright guys. How do I remove these annoying logos from my handlebar and levers.

Acetone didn't do jack to them. Any other chemical solutions I can try? They're both metal.

Oh yeah.....1 inch steerers can have several different thread pitches also.

Wow can't even ride with handlebars!??
Funniest **** i've read in a while.
STAY AT THE BACK REGARDLESS OF HOW FIT YOU ARE. WATCH LISTEN AND LEARN. There are many elite riders here.
5. If you’re a tri-athlete great, leave the bars off your bike. If there (sic) on, GET TO THE BACK.
11. If your (sic) serious, about riding, get rid of the poodle legs, and go on a date with Mr. Gillette.
Shiftless bum
While it's nice to read the rules of a peleton, comments like "Consider yourself fortunate" and the aforementioned shaving rules reminds me of why I generally stick to solitary sports. Makes me want to show up in chaps and cowboy hat and shoot people with a capgun as they go by.

seriously tho...that seems to be the typical roadie attitude these days. Yeah..I consider myself fortunate to ride with a bunch of stuck up, know it all's who seem to enjoy belittling others ability level. WOW! I am really lucky!

Makes me wanna create a peleton of messengers, and other like minded misfits, and EAT THE DONUT!!!!
Sorry but that kind of really badly written attitude makes me want to have a full on mudder 4x4 at the turn around point when they all park to get snackies, then drive over all their bikes. I like how there sooo many courses that we mortals can ALMOST become good enough to ride with them, but they won't tell you where. *******S!!!!!
