Technically it came to the LBS but it was meant for me.
2 20” 451 rims to swap for the chrome ones on my 79 Raleigh Twenty.

Not bike related but I finally got my Passport back from sending for renewal. The USPS delayed screwed up delivery and it was like two days late.

It's been like Christmas in July (but in June) around these parts. @hazetguy's Dura-Ace 7400 bits arrived via USPS a couple days ago.
Yesterday, I got a few screws and nuts from McMaster Carr.
Yesterday, I stopped to get milk on my way home from work. At the Play It Again Sports next door was a Motobecane Grand Jubilé. I didn't look too closely, but noticed Huret Jubilee rear derailleur, TA cranks and a Brooks Pro saddle. I called and had them hold it, then went back after work today to grab it. It turns out to also have a Jubilee front derailleur and shifters, and the rear is a long cage version. Oh, and it's my size.
Strangely though, it has half-step chainrings and a 13-17 freewheel. Not sure I've seen that combination before. Fortunately, I only had to ride a few very flat blocks home.
(Edit: Dunno if it's Firefox or BF, but I needed to horse around with the post after someone messed it up.)

BB for the 92 Allez Sport I am refurbing. The original spins fine but I will keep it and put in a new one so the next owner won't have to worry about it for a while.
