    Is anyone else as sad as me?

    Big Kona fan here. Suffice to say, when we were lucky enough to visit Hawaii, my wife was bemused by me pointing at or taking photos of random things. Until I explained why. After that she was merely embarassed. Humuhumunukunukuapua'as were my absolute favourite :) (and I don't mean the bikes...)

    Selle Italia Flite - original 90s vs the modern one

The originals are surprisingly variable - some have softer foam than others, some of mine are just as firm as the new one which IMO is *quite* firm, but that may be due to less...

    Best ever packaging

    I ordered a NOS Mavic 230 TIB rim from Ebay. Just a rim, and it really was NOS - the seller knew exactly what they had. It arrived solely in a bin bag tied neatly at the top. No padding, no tape, nothing. Just loose in a bin bag. Unbelievably, it was totally undamaged!
