Basso isn't done yet but I really like how it looks mounted this way.

Cateye is specific to their computers. Garmin and wahoo have their own mounts.

I'm thinking my Krono will also get the outfront computer treament.

2 shipments...now for measurements and ordering spokes. Then I'll see you in the "What are you wrenching on?" thread!

The bar end plugs are for laughs on my Mercian. "Yeaaaah, Baby!!"

Electronic postal scale with 66lb limit. It's already been a breeze getting weight for a quick shipping label.

If you need any Testors colors, get 'em now. I've heard rumor that Rustoleum (crap paint anyway) is going to kill the rest of the Testors hobby paint line. They already chopped the excellent Model Master line out about a year and a half ago.

I have noticed hobby stores are low in stock always. Hobby Lobby had these on sale so maybe I should double up soon. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm going to have to start testing alternatives soon. When my current hoard of Model Master runs out, I'd like to have selected an alternative.

I received a Pivo Professional stem for my Gitane project with a nice note from the seller. I needed a longer stem than the one I had. I've been waiting for this, so I can wrap the bars. Hoping to show off the finished build in a new thread tomorrow.
