Oh, there's ebay links on page 1 of this thread, rules changed later on I guess.
Sorry about that.

This is a great video from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO8DcaOJzrA
on how to wrap your cloth tape. I've got Newbaum's cloth, really nice.

I've got one of the fibre flares and the light it gives off is great BUT, I have had to modify it to prevent it falling apart so often, bumpy roads or even knocking against it can pull it apart. Good old zip ties lol
Talking of rear lights, going to buy red handlebar lights next, plug into the bar ends. These.

I have a very old steel frame. The only probem I found with mine was that I went 9 speed on the rear and I have to pull the chainstays apart to get the rear wheel in and out - pain in the arse if I puncture but a great bike for the winter training sessions.

Velodrama have some, soma tabo saddle and cardiff mercia which looks very familiar...
They are white, not seen cream anywhere

My lady is looking at these dutch bags Clarijs, although the courier bag (postman they call it) looks small I like the idea of it being recycled.

You could try the wheelroom as they make hand built wheels. Uses cadence rims which come in light - got to have light hubs too obviously, give them a ring.
Where you going?

Who is the IRD distributor here in the UK FFS??

Erm, to Jaygee, handbuilt, specc'ed to your weight and untended use, pay more for and pay more attention to who builds it, than the components, possibly , even. pay less attention to late night grammar.

My 2p.

DT R520 FTW.

You can get the rims on their own www.roadacecomponents.co.uk.
Halo do the Aero ones in white too.

Cranks, so why are the Open Sport on Ambrosio hubs in your example worth £72 more than the Open Sport on Zenith hubs from eBay seller?

Or do you actually use buttons as currency where the difference wouldn't matter so much?

Why you asking me that question? Maybe the ebay seller has lots to clear? I don't know - ask them!

I posted the velodrama site as a suggestion for wheels to look at, as requested by Betty. Thats what this forum is for.

^ pay buttons, get buttons

Have a look at these hand built ones. I like the DP18 rims, deep, strong and cheap.

Have you tried SJS cycles? Great range of spokes.
I also got some from roadace but can't see them advertised.

ACI are the cheapest, remember this will reflect on quality, i would have a few less beers and spend the money on a better spoke with a far better track record.
Sapim are affordable and strong and widely used by wheel builders.
DT are top end and probably overstrong for the likes of us - although no problem with that.

Have you tried velodrama

Give them a call and see what they say - which is probably not much without seeing them, but at least your queiry is logged. Any good bike shop will want to look after you the best they can.
I have carbon ones too but have only used them for races not training, they are as new.

Good luck!

Halo Aerorage is 19mm, 25mm V section. A possible solution if BLB cant help?

You going to build yourself?

If you want a similar profile you can get ird cadence in 24holes.

the Niobium's?

Yeah, also branded as IRD in this country, The Halo ones you can get in white...nice

Forgot to add Soma bside £385, steel, I like the classic paintwork.

mmm a post I just wrote has to be moderated!

I think its because I had the word 'wood'???

Anyway, look at woodbikes.com, they have a singlespeed mtb frame, $850.

Interesting!

Apologies if already posted:

Woodbike - nice! $850

ALso
Soma bside £385

Soma everwears on sale here, 25quid, there yer go.

You get the IRD freewheels from www.roadacecomponents.co.uk.

Build on your Campag hubs, or, these match your price point - DP18s on Ambrosio hubs, hand built.
