Cables, bar wrap, brake pads, Chain, tires/tubes, about the only thing I buy new....yup, costs can pile up quickly! What ever happened to that $3 bar tape? Oh, Yeah, it was thin, unpadded plastic and ROTTEN! :-) but it WAS only $3! Fighting with my Torpado Project to keep costs down, it has been an AWEFUL year for Architectural Illustration (on top of 3 other bad years)...Did pick up a pair of sweet high Flange Campy Hubs (Grand Sport)....just haven't decided which wheels to rip apart and TRY to relace!
