BCD?
110 bcd should be fine. It's not exactly new technology, the original mountain bike cranks were 5 bolt 110 bcd, and compact was 5 bolt: 94; 4 bolt: 104.

It's good to take a day off every now and then and let your body rest. I vote yes.

About to drop an order later this week; but before I do, do you think the A23 rims would hold up my fat ass (210lbs)?

Scrod,
My Devil frame has nodes on the downtube designed for drive-train specific applications. Being that I built this bike up as a FG/SS they're not being used. Handsome did such a good job with this frame, that leaving the little rubber covers on seems like an injustice. Is there some chrome option that was/is designed/jerry-rigged to cover them?

Scrod,
Any idea if there are any relations between Bianchi(gun holsters) and Bianchi(bike stuff), or Nitto(tires and automotive stuff) and Nitto(bike stuff)?

I am need of mid level chrome riser bars (31.8). My old ones were Ritchey, which were fine, but they don't appear to have what I need. Saw some Origin 8 for dirt cheap ($20) but I not sure if that is too cheap.
Thoughts?

Yeah I checked it out before I posted. Leader seems to be too small but the other Sub(urban) joints seem cool. So is that a co-sign for them?
