A pair of Saavedra Turbo tubular rims (~290g/ea) from brian3069. Now I have to figure out which bike. I'm thinking maybe the Miele.

Nice pump. About 12" in length. Is this for the pocket, or to mount?

it's actually too short to be mounted—not made intended to do so—and too long to keep in the pocket.
kinda weird size. guess the design was struggling between compact size and the capacity.
this is a HP version saying 160psi max and also w a nice on-hose gauge. a nice clip attached for floor use too.
guess it'll fit nicely in my backpack or messenger back. quite light too. finish quality is pretty neat and sharp.
will use and post how it works.

This sweet hunk o' vintage leather. Built like a vintage Brooks Pro; can't wait to sit on it.

Mailed in FL on Sat, arrived WA about 1pm Mon. USPS, $5.95 postage.

Now if they could get their rates/times for bicycle-size boxes somewhere in line with that, we'd probably have a livelier "For Sale" forum here.

I've been waiting patiently for this to arrive; big brown just dropped it off. It's my new SONdelux Wide Body hub dynamo laced to a Mavic 517 Ceramic to match the back wheel on my commuter/drop bar conversion. I cant wait to get it hooked up tonight.

I'm the lucky new owner of a custom set of bar plugs for my Serotta CSI.

Scott had these on hand and they are an excellent match for the color on the Serotta/Winter.

Thanks again sir. I love showing these at the shop.

Wandered into a local thrift store during lunch and found a pair of lightly used Union SP-5700 pedals. I've no experience with them, but the polished aluminum looks and feels nice. If nothing else they make pretty cool paper weights.

I got this Cartridge puller from Jensons in 2 Days After searching for how to remove a bearing cup from a Campi hub. I also found in my small parts box a Campi rear bearing cup.

The hub on my wifes Bike is rusted and rough so I want to replace it with this cup that I have no idea where it came from.
