Thanks!
Got me some 44cm handlebars ($24 ea), a couple of very cheap Panasonic dyno hubs ($21 ea), and couldn't stop myself from dropping a Jackson on these:

Yeah, I saw they have a 66cm Soma Smoothie road frame for $380. The fork is $120.
$500 for frame and fork is pretty strong for anyone on the taller side that is wanting modern steel.

Those dynamo's are a great deal, but I've already got 5 generating wheels so I'd better pass.

Same - I have a Sanyo version on my commuter and I may grab one or two. I'll probably be glad I did.

Thanks for this PSA-- I just got three of the Kogu Masamune stands, Sturmey Archer 3-speed bar-end shifter, Panasonic Dynahub, an MKS pedal T-shirt (not on sale) and some stickers... and got free shipping! Heckuva deal.

On a related note, I just transferred an IRD bottom bracket from my old single speed commuter to my new town bike build and 10+ years, all weather, still smooth as buttah.

Cool! Just got something similar from Amazon for more per pair; got French, Spanish and British, black base color not chrome. Wish they had USA. These look great.

All you guys buying Panasonic dyno hubs - received it (them) yet?
Anyone want to recommend? Classic silver, very vintage looking rim and spoke lengths for a 700c, 32hole 2X build. Rim brakes.
Maybe I should try to build a wheel. Heck, just a front for a city bike; What could possibly go wrong? HaHaHa!

The biggest issue with building a wheel right now is finding rims! @SquireBlack is currently finishing up the UBI frame building course in Ashland, Oregon. One of the benefits is you can do a one time order from QBP at wholesale. He said there were practically no rims in stock.

I’ve been hoarding a few sets of 700c 32-hole rims if anyone has a strong need. I’d sell a pair, not interested in breaking them up.

I like the tires. I bought two additional sets the last sale.
the dynamo hub looks interesting - I did not reference connector and or wiring

I'm not a 3-speed expert like some on here, but I believe the cable pull is the same across all vintages of SA 3-speed hubs. I based this on the fact that the SunRace-made 3-speeds in the 2010s were compatible with old shifters, but I haven't followed whether there's a new generation of hubs that have broken away from that standard. I believe the bar-end shifter has the same cable pull as the old trigger shifter.
