I stumbled on this on eBay a couple weeks ago and could not resist.



Came all the way from Poland. Looks to be hand made (by someone with a machine shop, that is). One side is a TA puller; the other Stonglight. Cost less than either puller individually.

I already tried it out on the TA side, and it's good.

Good luck with that..I just came off of a 5-day session just to select a jury.While I feel it is my civic responsibility to serve, 5 days of waiting, being called in early and told to leave early with little information except we will let you know is frustrating.

In our area it is tied, I believe, to registering to vote

Two pair of RE500 Campagnolo brake lever hoods. One for me, one for the Tomasso project I'm doing.

I like the placement of the name on the bottom of the downtube. Very confident.

That mongoose would make a very nice winter bike for Minnesota.

Today, I walked in toward the end of the swap and came back with this. Will clean up nicely for my latest project.
