Have: Nice, never used specialized road stem. Its LONG, i think about 135mm. I still have the box it came in. I put it on my bike for about a minute until i realized that it would have my nose rubbing the tire, so I never even put a bar in it. If you're interested, i can post pictures and other details.
Want: What do you got? 80mm stem, moustache bars, decent straight bar, 165mm cranks... make me an offer.

Here's a longshot:
Have: new, never mounted 05/06 Miche crankset with 49t ring, 165mm with bb
Want: same but 175mm, or something equivalent (sugino?) brand new
Somebody buy a crankset by mistake and just keep it?
I saw myself in a window riding (my 170s) today and noticed that my thigh never even comes anywhere near approaching level when I'm pedaling. I know my cranks are too short, but who's got some 190s for me? Since the new frame has a higher bb, I don't really need 165s.

want:
16t cog for formula hub (i.e. no phil or campy)
47t 144bcd chainring
both should be in good/excellent condition
have:
stuff i've posted here before - 200mm cf tioga seatpost, 80s selle italia turbo (good condition, barely used), and the campy pedals which will most likely be going on ebay
soon

isn't the cog threading on all standard track hubs the same, Italian, US and Japanese? Isn't it just that the lockring threading on Italians and Phils (and yet another for Mavic) different? Italian l/rs definitely won't work on standard lockring threads.
Somebody chime in, I'm about to buy an 18t cog for an Italian hub.

i think it's that different hubs have the same threading, only some are more touchy and finicky than others. hence it's best to pair manufacturers when pairing cogs and hubs. phil hub = phil cog, dura ace hub = dura ace cog, etc. i don't think the threading is too different where a phil cog totally cannot go on a dura ace or campy, but i think the threadings are just a touch different. (disclaimer, i have always only ridden on my couple of wheelsets and haven't much experience with other brands, so i might be way off).

SF ONLY: anyone want to trade 38cm chromo/steel nitto b-123s for my aluminum ones in almost brand new condition?
The aluminum bars cost more but I'm willing to take the hit for a set in good condition.
37 or 38 cm b-123s in similar condition only please! thank you

I know Surly (and other) cogs are 1 thread per mm (ISO). Phil Wood cogs are 24 threads per inch, which works out to 1.058 threads per mm. It's not a very big difference but still big enough that I wouldn't mix ISO and 24tpi if I had the chance.

I just kind of don't want to use the Miche carrier/cog system. Like, how do you really tighten down the carrier? Can't rota fix it, can't chainwhip it.

I have used suntour, shimano, EAI and a bunch of no-name generic cogs on my Miche hub with no problems. Don't sweat it.

weird.. maybe it was a bad cog.. i thought it was off a different hub though.. i cant remember... i still have it.. its useless self just stares at me..its def. a silver generic thing.

No. Cogs are not totally interchangeable.
I thought this awhile ago, until I picked up a cog made to precise tolerances. A british thread is "tighter" than italian thread. Most folks are running british (ISO) thread hubs : DA, suntour, formula, surly, with british thread cogs, in the rare event, some people stumble on a campy or miche cog and spin one on. works fine.
NOT the other way around. This doesn't get spoken of much as most people with italian hubs, have italian thread cogs. A british thread cog will thread on, with much force, and as a result, dull down the threads on an italian thread hub. I just picked up a used beater wheelset, campy hubs with a suntour superbe cog cranked on there. threads were chewed up and dulled from the steel cog. hub threads are almost a write off.
in short:
ISO HUB + IT COG = OK
IT HUB + ISO COG = Not OK

Yes, you can. Just put a cog on it before tightening. The real problem is that the lockring presses against the cog (it is a tiny wee bit wider than the carrier, it has to be that way) so the play which inevitably develops in cog-carrier interface will eventually lead to losening the carrier and possibly stripping the threads.

Want: A vintage quill drop stem. Nothing fancy... just anything that works and isn't completely gross looking. Would like it at 100mm length w/ 22.2 interior diameter (1" threaded steerer of course), and at a 65 degree angle.... but still respond if you have other options.
Have: Stock Fuji Track '06 stem and a whole bunch of pre-conversion parts off of my Puch 130. Pedals, full cranks, 0 rise stem, brakes (front and back), ect.
E-mail me at DoshKel@gmail.com or PM ehere if you want to work something out. Thanks a lot
