As of Friday morning the following items are available:>

4 sets velox plugs left


> >a. Velox white bar plugs. 7 sets for sale, NOS still in the card, but shop worn. Ivory color. Look pretty good after washing. $13 a pair, or $11a pair if buying more than one.
>


> >b. Dura Ace Crank set. 170 mm, old style fluted arms, 39 x 52 teeth, ridden very little, old style slotted rings look great. No-mark unknown chainring bolts with some corrosion on nuts, no dust caps or bb. Tapers and threads look good. $60
>


> >d. Brooks Competition saddle. Almost new. Black, textured top, 3 vent holes, medium hammered copper rivets, no bag loops. Some very light corrosion on rear inside rivet attachments, light clamp marks on the rails, otherwise looks excellent. No break in marks on leather, tension adjuster may have been tightened two turns. Leather has pulled forward minutely (1mm) from rear rivets, not a problem in my experience. Rear badge is copper colored. About the size of a B17 narrow, 154mm x 280mm. $72

> >g. Campy High Flange record hubs. 36 hole, 126mm, straight skewers. Don't know if skewers match year of hubs. Have been built and ridden before, but anondizing nice and shiny, spoke holes 100% functional. Will look fine when built. No rust on oil hole covers. Bearings feel good. No marking for freewheel thread, but English Dura Ace fw threads on fine. $110

> >k. Motobecane Grand Touring frame, fork & headset. Vitus 172 DB tubing sticker only partially legible, I believe this is a tretubi bike. 62cm c-t seat tube, 58.5 cm c-c top tube, 43 cm chainstays, 101.5 cm wheelbase, 126 mm rear spacing. Champagne color, nice patina fade (you can see the original color where the myriad clamps used to be). Only braze ons are downtube shifter stop and rear derailleur cable stop. Two brown panels on seat tube, decals highly legible, fame is well used but still very presntable. English bb (really, I checked). Not sure of head set threading. Standard stem starts in, then binds. Some very light sanding of stem, and you're all set. Headset in frame still functional, so not an immediate problem. Front brake hanger installed. Headbadge in excellent shape. Was going to be a fixed gear, ran out of time and money. Various scuffs, nicks and rust specs here and there, but still not bad looking. $50, will deliver within 100 miles (frames take so long to pack) or $70 shipped.
