I’m really taking a gamble on this 9 speed chain, with fingers crossed that it’ll perform well in a 7 speed configuration.
Hollow rivets, and open plates. Its full 116 link length is spec’d at 257 grams.
Dagnab this weight shaving lunacy!

I had a good day yesterday and did not know it until this morning.
Best 4.00 that I ever spent!
I thought these were MIA but they were sent to the wrong address and arrived weeks late....going onto my OLMO.

A new seatpost and some tools I already own but wanted to have in two places (the spoke nipple tool and tyre levers are brilliant), the toolbox at home and on the road.
The KMC chain tool looked very good and is designed for 1 to 12 speed chain. Sturdy steel head.
The Koolstop thinlines are for the couple of cantilever bikes with narrow forks.
EDIT:
And I also picked up an Ikea Sladda trailer this weekend.

A box full off cotton:
Also “say hello to my little friend.” 20 bucks cheaper than it’s Campy counterpart. And while it doesn’t match the dropouts, it does match the brake bridge. Most importantly, it fits the seat post!

Got some SKS longboards for my Lotus. I forgot how much I hate installing fenders.

Thank you. I don’t have the patience or craftiness to get the perfect fender lines like other members. I get them on to the good enough level.

Nice! Those are some beautiful skewers. Feels like a strange component to lust over, but that is what I am doing. I like the orange personally, granted it would depend on the bike.

More Paul goodness for the Binky. The PO had a mismatched set of Paul brakes on it - a Neo-Retro in the front, and a Touring Cantilever in that back. Seriously gauche, Dahling! We simply can't have that.

Almost on a daily basis I'm getting new/nos parts for the 70s French racer that I'm restoring. Without the Lockdown I'd be collecting parts within a 30 mile radius rather than wait but it's a bit like being a child at Christmas knowing what I'm getting but waiting to open the parcel.
