I really don't want to sell this stuff as I like barter better plus I love reparing bikes so I will use a lot but I have so much that I don't think I will ever get it sorted LOL. The racks I have are 2 brands Nagacast and Koba from Japan with the Koba's being the better ones IMHO. I haven't even shown the brake sets I got or the boxes of new spokes that were there and the ton of NOS brake and shifter cables. I have bags of new center bolts for side pull brakes and a large bag of alloy center brake cable mounts. I have every part you could think of for 3 speed cables,and I mean everything,cable mounts,cable pulleys,cable chains and arms and shifters with or without cables. I also got about 50 spoke protectors/pie plates both metal and plastic in which I spent a bunch of money this spring for some. I am just like a kid in a candy store going thru this stuff. Did you see that Dana 3 speed unit that goes thru the BB and replaces the standard crank arm neat. sorry for rambling I am just happy to show people that care about this stuff as none of my friends are they think it is all junk until they ask me to repair there bike.
If you want to sell one of those racks (either brand), let me know.

Otherwise... awesome score! The shop I work for was sold last year (I was re-hired) and the new owners have been chucking stuff in the trash like crazy. I dig around and get it back out of the trash and take it home. Some ends up on eBay, but a lot of it just sits in my "Bike Cave" and waits for a good use for it to come up. Anyone need a 12" wheelset? LOL!
