That's not surprising due to what eBarf fees have risen to. If mine aren't 10% they are very close. Then there's PayPal fees..................

I LOL'd.

Why is that a deal-breaker?

just not feeling like I'm getting anywhere. that, and team rides have been bumming me out. everyone is blinded by the illusion of amateur racing glory to the point that nobody is willing to work together... on a TEAM RIDE. what bums me out the most is the fact that i had to scold everyone yesterday mid-ride for riding sketchy (not pointing out huge branches in the road at 25mph) and not working together. that's not me, man! it pains me to be that guy.

xian is one of the good ones

want new athena, external cups wont work with that as far as i know, feel free to prove me wrong though

today i found out my cheapo $60 shorts are coming apart at the seams.
guess new parts are on hold this paycheck so i can get some new kit which ive been wanting anyway

Today it's hot as Satan's balls slathered in Sriracha at the shop because someone decided to steal the central air conditioning unit from outside the building. They unbolted it right from the ground. It must have taken six guys to put that thing in the back of a truck. Mother****ers.

Damn, that sucks a lot! Copper isn't even worth as much as it used to be but I guess jerks will steal anything that isn't, err, is bolted to the ground.

just get square taper campy cranksets. they are balleur, and even more so when you mix them with current gen campy.

Today I'm enjoying my new to me central air.

But, srsly, that blows... Or rather it doesn't...

The funniest part is that it's the second time its happened. :lol:

Actually, it gives me a perfectly good excuse to close and spend the day floating around in the ocean with a beer in my hand. as soon as the morning mail pickup gets here, I'm gone.

That sort of thing happens a lot around here, especially with window units. It's not funny when it's some elderly person who could actually die from the heat.

is that gonna be as easy to find though? its taking long enough to find the frame in my size that isnt ten million dollhairs

who the **** steals a central air unit?!

Hold up, you're lookin for a square taper campy crank? I may have a set...

i see them for sale all the time, and they are cheap. weird chainring bcd tho so be ready for that.

i kinda wanted a set for the spooky but force is cool too

I thought only certain year Campy cranks used the 144 BCD. I have some strada crankarms (not sure if Record, or what) that use a 130 BCD and I have a couple Sugino rings on them right now.

Vintage Campy and Sugino road cranks in the 1970s all used 144mm BCD chainrings. Also, older Campy and Sugino track cranks are 151mm BCD. I have both on my vintage bikes.

I suppose I should have clarified what I meant by "older"... I am thinking of the square taper 10 speed cranksets, which I believe have a 135mm BCD.

As far as I know, you can get either English or Italian BB cups for the new 2011 Power Torque cranks as well as the 2010 Ultra Torque cranks. I was thinking of doing the same with my Ciocc, but just decided to stick with what I got for now.

Dang, guess my recollection was probably wrong on my crankset BCD. I'll have to measure them some time.

wouldja lookit that, only $35 too

i kinda like the idea of some ballin super record cranks and drillium rings now that the seed has been planted but ill see which would be cheaper and easier

i scored alloy campy record 10sp crankset for 90 with bottom bracket, you'll find something within a few weeks no problem

no drillium plz

Drillium all the things.

noooOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo

Speed Holes!
