Ok, so this is almost laughable. I needed ONE set of MAFAC cantis for a build I'm working on, and ended up with three bikes' worth from two purchases, one of them NOS in the bag (with $18 marked on it... if only!). All three sets arrived today.

Very cool... I almost got one of those a while back, but he ran out of my size while I waffled. They look like excellent frames, nice score!

I've got the same pump. I bought it new in 1979 and replaced the leather plunger once and the chuck washer a couple of times. Used it for 210 psi for track riding at the Superdrome, just had to put small hose clamps on both ends of the rubber hose to keep it from blowing off.

Malcala,
Thanks to your observance I started counting the holes in some of the sets around here. I found one 28* and one 40* set mixed in with what were supposed to be 36*. I will look more carefully before sending any sets out from here on. Thanks for allowing me to send a replacement set. Honk

A couple of shipments of lighting brackets. Hat tip to gugie for mentioning Framebuilder Supply in another post, I've ordered bits from them and forgot about their absurdly robust brackets. Also nabbed a few other goodies from them to have on hand. Lots more wheelbuilding stuff is arriving in the next few days...separate post on that, most likely.

Wow @bikemig Score of the year.
It's seems weather is delaying alot of my packages to the eastcoast. 3 packages shipped out early last week and they're still enroute.

Waited a long time for one of these. Now I can use the shop compressor for all my bikes. $29.95 US sale price came to almost $70CAD after shipping and exchange.

The End!
Finally a great price to get me to buy the last set of wrenches I needed to fill each box and shop with their own set!
Found the last aluminum tray that I needed to fill out my pro stands with them! I like that flat tray...prob going on the computer desk for desk stuff... Extra floor mount screws, clamp bolt, and height adjust pin also included...everything my new to me, el cheapo pro stand, did not come with!

Ron seems to be selling everything. He closed his shop awhile ago (2019?). I was mildly surprised these frames weren't decaled as RRBs, but I guess it makes sense from a return/repair perspective.

I think he said the shop closed in 06? The frame is really nice. It should make for a great build.

The shop closed much later than that. Perhaps he stopped having the Taiwanese contract frames imported after 2006? I believe he had a stash of them in the shop storeroom. I didn't buy my RRB custom until much later than that (2012 or thereabouts, off Chicago CL), and have been into the shop in Kenilworth several times. In fact, Ron knew my frame, made for a guy who had been a surgical PA, but had to give up riding when back problems forced him off the bike. Ron said he thought the saddle on my RRB used to be his, something about the original saddle failing I think, and Ron replacing it with his. I still have that saddle (nice soft Brooks Pro) on my Eisentraut.

These came in yesterday but the "rain" made me postpone the "photo" shoot. They might go on the Bianchi TT Crono, they're a little more swoopy.

The post replaces the Chorus post on the De Rosa. .2 ox heavier and a lot longer. Nice design. The bottom saddle locks onto the head and the top clamp locks into the bottom saddle.
DO screws to replace the bent ones on the Trek760
