Here's a blast from the past for some of you Easterners. While looking for on topic goodies to help fund my up and coming (sometime) Bohemian, my bike shed regurgitated two pair of ancient (70's) wheel covers. Red rubberized cloth of some sort, black stripe down center, shop worn, some smudges, good elastic, perfectly functional and really look pretty good. Along the side: TURIN BICYCLE CO-OP CHICAGO. I have no clue what covers like these would go for so I'm putting them up for $25 per pair including shipping to see what happens. All 4, $45 including shipping. If it's a swinging deal, good for you; if it's highway robbery a gentle remonstance is all that's required. I also have this bizarre bottom bracket with spindle, cups, bearings, and a metal cylinder that the cups screw into. It reminds me of those Mavic assemblies that were meant for bottom brackets that had been stripped and it would probably work that way, but I have screwed the cups into a regular bottom bracket and they work just fine (English). The spindle is long enough for a double chainring. Oh and it's cottered and looks to be new. $25 including shipping. Craig Montgomery in Tucson

The wheel covers must have been a good deal, or struck a chord of nostalgia because they were gone in a bunny fart (poot). The BB assembly is still available.
