BikeIsland's price for Omniums is a pretty good deal.

Ever notice how they never show pics of the inside of the crank arm spider? It's because it's very crudely finished, even worse than a Sugino RD2, which are not particulary beautiful either. SRAM is over hyped and overated IMO.

jus sayin.. those Andels look awful.. mostly the chainring. They are probably the same thing basically.

poor selection of chainring sizes on omniums? But its 144bcd..? Both are and both come with 48t

I agree, the Andel chainring makes me weep.

I got an email from Wiggle with a $5 voucher that can be used on any purchase over $25. It's good till around Jan 7th. I don't plan on using it so here it is... 21b3b-8c81b

If somebody uses it just let everyone know so nobody else has to try it before they find out it's gone.

Soil_Sampler - That is a mighty deal on a set of new ellipses. I want to buy a set, but don't actually need them.

I would have jumped on those if I could just sell my S300's, kept the King bottom bracket for my eventual Omnomnom find
