Also doing some hunting last night i found a bianchi pista steel frame for $100 but the seatpost collar is slightly cracked. never had to get a frame repaired so is it fixable/expensive fix/worth it?

Scrod, do you sell any bike stands? I like the looks of this one posted below, i think it is the EVO. What do you use to stand single bikes in the shop?

We have stands very similar to those but they are black and made by Shimano. They retail for 32 bucks.

There are enough frames in the world to not need to buy a cracked Bianchi Pista.

What's the deal with those new all city rings? Have you ridden one yet? Are they even out?

When did you grow a mustache? Didn't you have the Amish thing going?

Never.

Shotland 10-02-14 03:10 PM

all city rings?

Scrodzilla 10-02-14 03:52 PM

You mean these? They're a figment of your imagination.

gl98115 10-02-14 08:05 PM

What's so special about them? Besides the marketing.

Scrodzilla 10-02-14 08:51 PM

Nothing, it's all just internet hype. Whatever you do, don't buy one. Origin8 4 lyfe.

Hey Scrod,

I'm interested in the KMC K710SL chain, but only if I can push the link pins back in after breaking the chain. Is this possible or is this one of those KMC model chains where you can't or it's very difficult ?

Scrodzilla 10-03-14 12:30 PM

I've done it without any issues most times but other times, the link having the pin that gets pushed back in will make an audible click every time it goes around.

Why not use the master link?

Well, sure, I could certainly do that, but it spoils the aesthetics of that chain with its pretty cutouts and all.

Scrodzilla 10-03-14 12:50 PM

Gotcha. The new master link included with those chains doesn't have cutouts but matches the shape of the offset links if that's any consolation.

Hi.
Do you think you can get a 2015 vigorelli frame to Syracuse by Columbus day weekend?
I Couldn't pm you due to lack of posts.
Could you pm me ?

Nobody can PM me because I have it disabled in my settings.

Why would you ask me this on BikeForums instead of contacting my shop directly? Also, all questions regarding shipping are already answered on the FAQ page found on our site.

ketsana 10-05-14 07:43 PM

I see the faq now. Thanks.

Apparently Unknown Bike Co. makes a 2.9 lb frame... for $349.


Surely, this must be a low quality frame for that price, right?

But it's SCANDIUM. I mentioned this in another thread and no one weighed in on it. I'm curious to know as well.

The only thing I know about Scandium is that when I played in college, I had some lacrosse sticks that claimed to be made out of scandium. Idunno, lol.

Scrod, how did you get into mopeds?

It must be because everything Unknown makes is crap.

Sacndium is just another aluminum alloy. What you have here is another cheap Asian aluminum frame.
