[RBW] iso "classy" fixed rear wheel

figured I'd ask before I spend too much $$$

anyone got an extra simple fixed rear wheel (700c) lying around that they
want to get rid of?  I'd love something somewhat nice but not "track"
(formula hub laced to mavic cxp22's, etc?)

bonus if it has a 16t-18t cog included...

Soma Condorina Bar: $35
http://www.somafab.com/archives/product/condorina-bar
barely used... mounted and used for one test ride and decided to go back to
a simple riser bar.

 Shimano DH 2n30 36H dynohub. $30
http://cycle.shimano-eu.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/EV/bikecomponents/DH/EV-DH-2N30-E-2364C_v1_m56577569830677486.pdf
6V 2.4W  I never got around to building this one up, and ended up going
with a shutter precision.

[SOLD] Phil Wood rear 36H freewheel hub (120mm)   - $40
it fits a 5 speed freewheel... this is used but like all PW stuff it spins
amazingly.

brand new 9 Speed Microshift bar ends $50
(indexed rear, friction front): shimano compatible, rear is indexed only,

Oury Grips (white) $10 each.
white's been used but can be cleaned.

165mm SR aerox crank $40
144BCD.  52/42T  used but teeth in good shape.  bought off ebay but never
mounted.

Campangolo Daytona 170mm crankset (55/48t) $ 30
used this on a bike friday.  Rings are TA

Shimano Friction Thumbshifters $25
simple.  good stuff. works well.

Koolstop Eagle Pads for threaded Canti Posts $???
I dunno, a couple bucks along w/ another order I'll toss them in.

Shimano 105 Octilink cranks (170mm) $ 40
these take 130BCDs

Tektro RL340 brake levers $20
http://www.tektro.com/_english/01_products/01_prodetail.php?pid=67sortname=Leversort=1fid=3
in good condition!

[SOLD] Diacompe 287v  drop bar levers for V-brakes $25
http://www.diacompe.com.tw/product_View.asp?nid=791

SRAM Powerglide 50T chainring 110BCD $10
in great condition

Sugino 165mm road triple (52/42/30) 130/74BCD $50
the crank I think is a RD2 with a triple... not exactly sure.


as for what I am looking for:
I'd love a 110/74 bcd crankset in 170mm arms.  silver, with or without
chainrings.  My wife's bike is currently running a 110bcd 52/42 crank and
She only ever needs the 42T ring but would like a smaller ring for hills.
I want to drop it down to a smaller front ring setup (with a chainguard)
and 110/74 is just so darn useful.


email me private off list at this address. (boson...@gmail.com) for ?s

thanks!

 I can't tell if I have my lights on on the bike with the SONdelux.

 I can DEFINITELY feel the drag with my lights on on both bikes with the
 Shimano.

 Worse than the drag, I can feel the Shimano dynohub transmit vibration in
 the handlebars when the lights are on-- on both bikes.

 Actually the drag on the Ultegra level Shimano dynohubs (DH 3N72 and
 higher) is so negligible that perception of it depends more on mood than
 anything objective. A front wheel, lifted and spun, doesn't rotate quite as
 long as with the SON Deluxe, but when riding you don't feel it. Ditto for
 the SP. I don't have the test results in front of  me, but IIRC no modern
 dynohub requires anything close to 15 w. In fact, I doubt any dynamo
 requires anything close to 15 w; even a Soubitez dynamo would have to be
 only 20% efficient to require 15 w for a 3 w output. And, FWIW, even an old
 Soubitez bottle or Sanyo or Union isn't as horrible as many people believe
 -- my rule of thumb description is that they don't quite require 1 gear
 tooth lower in back for the same effort in given conditions.

 I can see preferring rechargeables to dynamos; I used rechargeables for
 10-12 years before getting my first dyanmo hub; but drag isn't really one
 of them -- it's not really an issue.

 With the new SON deluxe hubs, the drag is imperceptible, even with the

 I'd like to anti-recommend the dynohub approach. I considered it when
 building my Sam, but rejected it for a couple of reasons:

 1. They're expensive!
 2. You pay the wattage tax whether you're using the thing or not. The
 Interwebs say that the drag costs anywhere from 2 to 15 watts of 
 additional
 pedal power. That's not a lot. But it's not nothing either.

 Instead, I bought a USB battery (http://www.amazon.com/gp/
 product/B00IP1MQNK/), which I'm quite happy with. That way I have
 backup power for all my devices, since they all accept USB power (front 
 and
 rear lights, GPS, cell phone, AfterShokz headphones). With the money I
 saved, I could have bought five of them, but one was more than enough.

 On my most recent tour, I had no problem keeping the battery charged
 by plugging it in overnight and opportunistically at lunch stops. But just
 to be safe, I also got a solar panel (http://www.amazon.com/Goal-
 Zero-11800-Nomad-Solar) which mounted easily to the rear rack. Like I
 said, I didn't need it; but I was glad to have it as a backup.
