I've been riding MKS Custom Nuevos for the past year initially with ReLoad velcro straps which are actually quite narrow (and are for sale now on my thread) and fit through pretty narrow gaps.
I've now got Holdfasts threaded through them but they were quite tough to get through.
Give me a shout if you'd like to see them or anything..
Cheers, TomI'd love to have a look at them, post a pic if you can pls, i would love to get some neuvos, my old shitty pedals are torn to shreds, but couldn't figure out if i could get velcro straps on, cheers

Yeah, the saddles a bit hit and miss, I might invest in a concor sometime in the (near)future. Another reason for the formation face is the lack of a machined side wall, which I don't need anyway, but they have a normal silver one too, not sure it's worth £60 for the lack of a machined wall though :)

So I brought a steel Langster a couple of years back, but about one year ago I decided it was time for a change, so completely stripped it down and decided to build it ground up using the shiny langster frame, not a particularly good one, but I like the finish. I have just finished it and put a few of those new Atomic 22 security skewers on it for good measure. I think it's worked out quite well and for a first build I'm happy with it, my one question is weather or not I should go for a polished h plus formation face, but i think it may just be one step to far as everything else appears to be extremely shiny :) so just wanted anyones opinions on weather or not to go for it? Thanks

I know, it really is precision stuff, you get the one key size for each component, you can order more, but it costs, so one'll do me for now. They took about 2 weeks from me placing the order to arrive, but they kept in touch the whole way, i guess its these lead times that lets them make so many, I ordered some crank bolts for my sugino 75's but I was told that they where looking on improving the washer design, so it would take a while longer, so they went as far as machining one off washes for me to use in the mean time, the definition of quality service, ill post a few picks when they're all installed

Tiny bolts or waxed in ball bearing work, but they're annoying to say the least, a right pain when you want to make adjustments or clean the bike etc. I like to think of it as rather than how much is you bike worth, how much are the individual components worth to you, I have a Nitto craft stem, its the crowning piece on my bike, and expensive too, I'll happily pay, and have done already, £50 in order to protect it from some dick with a allen key from easily nicking it. And like Joe said it means I can leave it without worrying about the stem etc. getting nicked.

the nag desn't suit those ridiculous bars, or that out of place spoke card, and that saddle position is absurd, but other than that...i want it
