I really can't understand why you're building tubs.

The only clinchers ive seen and really liked are the black Araya RS-430

and they seem like they're harder to get hold of than the Tita Ace's i originally had my eye on!

im not sure, i should have really done a little more questioning as to the exact specification. i do know they are 15x305, NJS and come in a pack of 72 and are used in this wheelbuilding package:

Hoshi problem solved! no expensive import!

Thank you TFG!

Exactly as the title suggests

I'm looking for some 305mm NJS spokes to lace up my hubs and rims 4X

72 of the little buggers all needing brassy nipples

I believe Hoshi are the only NJS spokes still in production but I am open to other NJS spoke ideas

Thanking you

Also, did you try this shop for the Hoshi spokes. I've recently ordered from them and others have been pleased with their prices and speed of shipping in the past.

This is first on my list at the moment

Have you tried ringing Cycle Surgery?

I went to cycle surgery once.

I paid about £250thousand for a Park Tools BB remover.

Never again.

Anyway...... (great gif!)

Nags gone a few steps backwards after the sellz of all the Sugino, but well on the forward track with the arrival of the 7500 hubs, 7500 headset, Araya 16bGold Rims

7500 cranks ordered, 7500 BB and chainring also on the way!

Just the Hoshi's needed now......

Will post full pics details and build photos once everything has arrived!

Might get to ride this some time soon......

look i got well excited and trusted your advice, it was only down to a mild state of inebriation that i didn't go straight to the bloody shop......

broken trust......

giggles

Yeah, you should have heard the guy on the phone at Evans'

"Sloshey spokes?"

Cheers bru....

...........

£48 for the BB at TFG. Thanks for the reply but I'm out.
That's only very very recent, I know standard 75 BB's are usually at least £80 and SuperLap's around the £120 mark, be interesting to see how long that price lasts @ TFG.

Still a very good price for the lot.

If there a picture of the frame built? Really keen on this if it still here in 2 weeks when student loan arrives!

Love this shit - ROLL ON APRIL 7th!!!

Nothing on website.....?

You shitting me? Evans Cycles sells Hoshi?

They even have those in Manchester.......

Anyone got any idea where i can get Hoshi NJS Spokes from in the UK?

Tokyo Fixed sell a "complete NJS Wheelbuild" which includes Hoshi Spokes but when you try and get to the Spokes section of their website it draws a blank.....

I need to get these bad boys laced up......

Got the bars and cog today, cheers buddy! BUMP!

You have other lopro track frames........??

Yeah I've blown out the Sansin hubs although I had asked Toshi at NJS Exports about Sansin axles and they had none. Dura Ace axles would have probably been fine.

Thank you crofty, when the hubs are (finally) in my hands il check the hub diameter etc and measure exactly!

Getting slightly excited about finally getting it all together!! Although with parts coming in from all over the world it may be a little while yet.....

I'm going to leave you guys too it!

:(

Although I completely understand, I've just found myself a new flat after a month of searching whilst also becoming unemployed and then re employed over the same period of time!

Keep me posted and if things change I'm all over it

I can arrange courier pickup?

Right, well, that's clear, there is absolutely NO interest from the London area....
