Yeah, I've considered riding to his shop. it's about a century. But I don't know what I would do once I get there.

(This isn't a question but I thought it was awesome so I wanted to share.)

I had this dream that I lived in Beverly and rode over to your shop. When I got there you asked if I was Adrian from BF and then you pressed a button under a counter and a wall opened up. Behind it there was a Party/BBQ and all the BFSSFG bros were there. You handed me a plate with a bunch of Chorizo and grilled peppers on it. Sadly I woke up before I got to eat :/

Scrodzilla 02-19-13 03:42 PM

Ha! That rules!

Mumonkan 02-19-13 03:49 PM

Don't want to, either.

We sell similar Crane bells on the site, though.

How can I wire this to my dummy lever?

Scrodzilla 02-20-13 07:39 AM

I have no idea. Didn't Dannihilator rig a bell to a brake lever?

sinikl 02-20-13 11:22 AM

that's a nice rug in your shop. where'd you get it?

Scrodzilla 02-20-13 12:35 PM

It was a gift.

It really ties the room together, man.

plus one million for a lebowski reference. actual reason i asked is i'm trying to buy some rugs for our house and the damned things are ****ing expensive. i'd estimate you're sitting on 2k worth of rug there easy!

Scrodzilla 02-20-13 12:39 PM

No way, it's a cheapo and has a few blemishes. It was no more than a hundred bucks from a discount rug place.

Mumonkan 02-20-13 02:12 PM

A new persian rug is ****ing expensive, a new chinese made persian style rug is slightly less ****ing expensive

thrift stores rule.

Scrod, do you know what handlebar this is? Is it something you have in stock?
It looks like a FSA wing pro but not compact...

Edit: thanks!

Scrodzilla 02-20-13 03:33 PM

How could I possibly tell from that pic?

It's definitely a compact drop with a flat top. They're all pretty close to the same thing, pick one.

BoSoxYacht 02-20-13 03:46 PM

I'm looking for a 102mm English thread BB w/ISO taper, but I don't want to spend an arm + a leg. What is available?

I've seen Miche and Origin8 have what I'm looking for, but can you think of any others?

Scrodzilla 02-20-13 04:07 PM

What crank are you using that calls for such an odd BB?

BoSoxYacht 02-20-13 04:12 PM

Campagnolo Chorus.

Any thoughts on the Origin8 BB? I've used the Miche bb before with no problems, but I'm not sure Origin8 quality.

Scrodzilla 02-20-13 04:18 PM

I'm not sure who actually makes them but Origin 8 BBs are fine.

Good to know.

I've used one on a customer's bike, but haven't heard any feedback from him about it.

Scrod, what's the longest you've gone without checking into the forums?
