Jeremy, it looks like I do have a spare set. Do you need mounting bolts as well?

So, apparently the time has come this year for spring torrent of Supercycles etc. that have wintered outside and now "sound off" :) It'll be a fun couple of weeks.
Good thing the coop has stocked lots of wd40 just last week.

i know it's a long shot, but i'm going to try anyway: the mount for both my front light and computer snapped this winter... perhaps one of you is like me and keeps random stuff around? (planet bike micro LED and cateye MITY 8)

cavit8 04-02-07 08:44 PM

Zippered, is that the BRT micro? http://tinyurl.com/24966p If so, I might have one. I had one of those lights at one point and may still have the mount somewhere...

i have an old cateye mount somewhere, actually a toolbox full of old mounts you're welcome to dig through. sometimes shops have extras kicking around and if they like you they'll usually toss one your way.

Tricks and Drinks
 
Tricks and Drinks Toronto worked out well tonight. It was a little chilly but fun none the less. We had backwards circles, lots of skids, old fashion cat walks, and even a full blown crash.

no, not exactly. My steamroller for instance calls for a long reach brake. I learned that the hard way after buying a regular Ultegra. Spend and learn

I thought that might be the case and the ones I have are pretty short.

Zippered, I'll see if I can find the mount for that light and pm you if I find it

i'm talking about cantilever brakes for cross / MTB. i thought steamrollers were set up for use with dual-pivot road brakes? i know they all vary in reach but i assumed all v/brakes and cantis were standard as reach really isn't an issue with the types of bikes on which they mount.

Its finally done, I hate it when life gets in the way.
