    Klein Adroit

    Shipping price is about right I just sent a 15" Merlin Ti frame, just the frame, to the UK with Fedex and it cost 350 US. I insured it for 1500 US. I asked why the price and was told that the box dimensions (thus how much a container can hold) pushed the price way up. 500 US seems a little...

    Finished Fat Ti

    rear rub is a white industries number. After the recent failure of my beloved red rear Ringle Hub (purchased in '96) (See below) I'm gonna stick with much newer hubs and put my money into (vintage/retro) parts that are less stressed or have lived a less stressed life. Forks look cool, weigh...

    Finished Fat Ti

    This is my regular ride. 1993 M/L with some unfortunate decal wear. Far easier and cost effective to maintain. Anyway, setting up the Proshift gripshift/deraileurs is working my nerves, probably a bit of me and a bit of hardware issues but i'm gonna guess these components weren't the most...

I stopped about 5 years ago (sold the road bike). I grew tired of wank8rs in cars / rednecks in trucks trying to see...

    Craiglist

    a money order in the US is basically a check that wont bounce!. You (the buyer) have to pay the bank/post office the amount the money order is made out for. So basically it's a bank's check not yours, if you see what I mean. But...what about an international money order? You buy it from your...

    I ship stuff to my bro in Staffordshire. A 200 UK pound Chris King hub is half the price here ($200) with the crazy exchange rate at the moment. He saves a fortune (i'm in Texas). What I do is on the green customs form that is stuck onto the parcel is put GIFT (as to what it is for) I describe...
