Gum brake lever hoods, Campy style, from Soma Fabrications. Will be fitted to Suntour Superbe brake levers. The hoods feel very flexible and are translucent.

Got a box from Wiggle UK about a week earlier than projected, and I hope this is everything I need to get my three projects roadworthy by spring. Brake pads and cables/housing were all I needed. I think.

This is for a future build. It will go on the 1978 Raleigh Professional frame I bought last year. I almost have everything I need.

oh you guys are getting some good stuff. I gave my Brother one of my favorite balaclavas a week ago & ordered a new one for myself. they changed the design slightly. too much material on top. w/ the face opening positioned correctly I look like an SNL Cone-head. w/ it pulled down all the way my eyes are covered completely. also the neck, which was longer than necessary before, is even longer now! ... ;-( would it be dumb to take it to a tailor for adjustments?

I took a chance and and ordered this Scheeren stem for the Scheeren bars that came in last week. Unfortunately the bars have a 27.0 clamp size and this stem is 25.8. Oh well.

Just got these black 1st gen DA hubs for a new 6-sp wheel build. So cool to see that they’re in much better condition than I expected. Going to have them laced to a set of Nemesis rims that I took off another bike and mount some 30mm FMBs that I just got a few days ago. I think I have all the fixins now for the build.

Two new Fizik Kurve saddles! One is my preferred chameleon style and the other is Snake. The chameleon is my all time favorite saddle but I can also ride both other Kurve saddles just fine.

You could also be looking for a Titan stem, seems like most of them are 27.

Nice! A Favorit Super Record, no less! 
Are you planning a Czechoslovakian build? I believe I have the appropriate brakes for those levers (MAFAC "RACER" copies), as well as a bar stem, which looks somewhat like the Scheeren stem pictured above. Let me know if you need them.

Someone suggested I really needed these, in order to ride my gold-colored Robust in style. I totally agreed.
And waddaya know, they were on sale somewhere.
