Had some great looking stuff. jitensha.com is site. Nice stuff and cool guy. If I go road, I am already sold on his stuff. He also does track frames. Enjoy.
i wouldn't be surprised if momovelo died completely, web and all.

the website is nice but it's all a sham. i've ordered from them 3 times and of the 9-10 items, i only ever got one. and, the customer service is terrible. no followup and not very communicative. apparently too busy being cool to actually run the business properly.

it's too bad, since he generally had the right idea where the bikes and bits were concerned.
