Years ago, maybe 20+, Moots Cycles had (real, not cartoon) rollers on display at the International Bike Show with rocks somehow glued on....

I wrote a few days ago about the bankruptcy of Bruegelmann in Frankfurt, Germany who was Europe¹s largest dealer of high end bicycles in the 70s. I managed to track down their remaining stock and found the following in an industrial area near Frankfurt:

The new stuff was already sold but I could get the complete stock of NOS vintage Campagnolo parts for a few hundred Euros (they needed to empty the hall and even said ³sorry, it¹s only old stuff, no carbon parts any more²) I just unloaded the boxes in my garage but it is just too much, I don¹t have enough storage for at least a quarter of the boxes. So I invite every list member to come to my house today (tomorrow I will be on vacation) and take as much as you can carry with two hands. My adress is
