Keirin Components
 
Hello,

Just wondering if people on the forum have had any experience in purchasing used Keirin parts from Japan? I found this site http://njs-keirin.blogspot.com/ and was considering some purchases but wanted some opinions on whether it's advisable or not. Pretty much looking at cranks, chains, BB and cogs which have all seen use in races, what's the consensus?

Gabe is great - I just bought the Campagnolo Sheriff Star wheels he has listed. Shipping was fast and service was great.

yea that site is a legit source for parts, just buy them.

I may actually end up purchasing a Keirin frame, what do people think about it for road use? Anybody ride a Panasonic, Vivalo, a 3rensho or any NJS frame on the road as an everyday commuter? Is it overkill?

yes. obviously it is overkill, but you don't really care about that do you?

Buying a used Keirin frame is sketchy as fawkeddsaretyhj
