The Ironman's original Suntour GPX group included nice looking blue-grey finished cam lever and end cap -- nice looking but impractical for a trainer like the Cyclops.
Husband just ordered one. Unless Amazon really did process the first six times he tried to order and they said it failed, in which case, he just ordered 7. If this is the case, he also ordered 21 bike hangers for the new storage system.
I kinda hope it goes through multiple times so I have a reason to get more bikes...the hanger system weight rating says I can hang 84 bikes on it...
Thank you for the pointers!
