I bought into the Soma Fab sale and my package arrived today. It must help that I live relatively close to the distribution center.
A pair of Soma Vitesse tires, two IRD chains, and a Kasai FS dynamo hub.
The dynamo hub is disappointingly rough, but this is only the second one I've worked with, the first being a well-worn Shimano dynamo. Are dynamo hubs supposed to be hard to turn?

To continue my MUSA for all thing possible, I sent some money to Petaluma CA. The flip side is it’s they’re going to run on an SKF BB so German/American like my the hubs on the bike.

Modern Campagnolo wheels that will probably end up on a modern-ish bike. Best wheel box I have ever seen!
Also, first new wheels I have ever bought not attached to a bike.

I’m overstocked on Suntour derailleurs, but I still can’t resist a well-priced one when I see it.

yes, I just acquired one on a donor bike that I got , mainly just for the wheels but it came with some other nice jewels like the Cyclone GT RD that will end up on my touring bike.

I got a pair of Modolo levers (plus a bonus spare hood), spokes, and a new frame.
Just a sneak peek at the frame:

Got fed up with my phone in my pocket impediing leg movement slightly:
It's a cheapy (£21) from Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And I bought the Carradice Cyclo loops earlier.
It's just big enough for a phone (Moto G6) and a camera (Lumix DMC-ZX1).

Custom frame bag from a Ukrainian seller on Etsy. Very nicely finished and a real bargain imho.
