I sense the appearance of the infamous squirrel picture to be imminent.

There are some other great places with great names where you can pick up specialty pieces. Western Screw in berkeley, ca has EVERYTHING and is always willing to sell 1 or 2 pieces at a time...no need to get a whole case.

Seriously folks...We have plenty of salt on the roads in the winter, and the nuts for my Miche Hubs I had been riding for the last few years don't have a spec of rust on them. They are $4 per nut (Canadian Dollars). I never thought much about the quality of them, but after reading all of these posts on your IRO nuts, I am thinking that my nuts are a little nicer than yours. Perhaps it is because I pay attention to my nuts regularly and make sure they are always clean and shiny after each ride...or maybe its genetics.
