I'd probably just grab some Tektro sidepulls. Sometimes spending the
small amount o cash is worth your time.

I'll paypal you money for shipping for them and either use or donate
them.
Sorry, people wasting bike parts just is my pet peeve.

You trashed the shifters? Were they still functioning? At the very
least you should have donated them to a local bike church/kitchen/non-
profit. I know it's in vogue around here to bash those but throwing
away functioning equipment is ridiculous.

I love those Linus bags. I might buy some for commuting. Fits the
aesthetic of a teacher pretty well...

My pre-aged is not flat. It looks pretty much the same as my brother's
b17. I have the flyer. It's fantastically comfortable plus I enjoy the
more natural color of the leather. I am thinking about a springless
b17 and i'd go with the pre-aged again.

I'm on the edge of purchasing a Riv and have given the Yves Gomez a
TON of consideration. I've been wondering how difficult it would be to
fit it with drops and run it like a randommuter that is easy to get on
and off...

Scott is currently writing a book and recently sat behind the drum kit
for the first time in a while.
One of the most impressive parts of Scott is his unwillingness to set
himself up as a self-help guru. He's pretty fantastic even though he'd
never admit it.

Personally I don't like the blinking action because I think it
distracts drivers (it sure does distract me).

Had a couple good days earlier this week in Philly. Last night and
today we're getting Noah's Ark levels of rain.

SGH.
It's one size too big. Yarrg. I think.
I've always regretted not grabbing a Bleriot.

A guy on the KOG list had a similar-ish problem with the top braze ons
on his fork crumpling his downtube eventually!

I know that Esteban has them on his (gorgeous) Protovelo and loves
them. I have them on my DoubleCross and think I need to tweak my cable
housing and the straddle length. They are definitely good but I still
need to tweak mine some.

Any Dick Blick's, Michaels or other craft store would be your best

I love my flyer on my bike with Noodles set at/slightly above saddle
height. I also loved it when I rode with more upright swept back bars.
Love that saddle. I have a "pre-aged" version.
