Today, Tony, my most favorite UPS driver in the universe, brought me my new Waterford, a joint 39th Bday gift from my mom and my boyfriend. Its real pretty and I'll post some pics upon assembly...Ok, its not really an era bike, even if it is a "keeper of the flame," but no STI here! Lots of little classic touches you all will appreciate and some day my 8 speed Dura Ace stuff will be era.
My Waterford is waiting for some odds and ends and to be built up. So here is the CR relevant part of my post - a need for QR skewers and a stem.
I like the older kind with the chrome ends with the little metal loops on them. Shimano is fine, Dura Ace preferred. I need two pairs - cause I gotta return some to my boyfriend...
Also, I'm looking for a 100mm Cinelli stem for my older (no aero grooves) 63-40 bar. It does not have to be super-nifty, as long as it is 1" and in pretty good cosmetic shape.
Has anyone heard anything about Chris King? I've been trying to get ahold of them via telephone for the last two days and no answer.
