This tall man's Merino jersey hand sewn in Australia by these guys.
Team Merino Cycling Jersey | ELEVEN vélo
They did a great job on it and didn't charge me more for the xtra inch and a half on the length. Choose your colors. Takes a couple months from ordering till receiving. Haven't ridden in it yet but it seems airy.

No problem.
I also have some on my white Kvale with Chorus Ergos. The bike is up at the cabin though and I don't have decent fotos handy.
Can take some next time there though if needed.
The Somas work well for me, but careful with the ramp length. If you are used to a longer ramp bar like a Noodle, a little adjustment may be needed.
Again, I like them fine and they won't break the bank.
The Soma website shows black and silver as available.

Scored a few bits and pieces... NOS Suntour Cyclone front and rear derailleurs, still in the box. Suntour downtube power shifters, going onto the Fuji Pro. Sugino Mighty Competition crankset with really mint black anodized drilled chainrings, also to go on the Fuji Pro as soon as I can get an appropriate bottom bracket.

Likely to work well with 600 as well, but you'll have to decide if the look of the bar is what you're after.

I received my Brooks Pro purchased from Sloar...and a SRAM derailluer for my Bianchi.
Here they are mounted...but no cable run yet. Brakes will be changing soon as well.

No one cares
bought these on ebay for cheap, though they are a hair too small. I wonder if I can get them stretched somehow? Darn it.

I missed a beautiful Chris Kvale when it was locally available two years ago in the Twin Cities.
It was sold to a fellow in Austin,Tx and I kicked myself over it.
Then two weeks ago it came up for sale on another forum and I bought it straight away this time.
It's nicer than I remember.
As for the MAP, I emailed an owner of a MAP a year ago about interest to purchase.
We stayed in touch and he had decided to build a new one. Asked me recently if I was still interested.
I said yes and I now own a grail bike for me.
I'm sure I'll get around to pics eventually.
In the meantime, Google MAP Cycles and you'll see why I was so interested.
Pretty similar to mine. https://www.flickr.com/photos/mapcyc...n/photostream/

Nothing tangible, but an invite to do some cool wrenching on some Honda CB's and a place for a stand to build my winter project in a buddies garage
