More jerseys and shirts for sale

Zoic, Canari and Craft jerseys and cycling shirts.

Craft jersey - worn maybe twice. $35

Zoic long sleeve fleece jersey. This is a synthetic fleece jersey, not wool. Zippered back pocket, excellent condition. $35

Canari 'SportWool' Jersey. I think I wore this once or twice. Sportwool is the same fabric that Rapha uses in their winter jerseys. $40

Zoic casual cycling shirts. Fits similar to a polo shirt. Doesn't look like a cycling jersey but has an extended tail and pockets on the back ... as well as a small zippered pocket on the front where the Zoic label is sewn. Mostly cotton. I wore these with jeans to work and no one noticed they were bike shirts.
$20 for both.

All the jerseys are in excellent condition and have been worn very little - no stains, rips or other problems. The two shirts have been worn a good bit, mainly as casual wear instead of on bike. Probably not crisp enough for office wear now but more that good enough for on the bike.
All shirts/jerseys are size large. Shipping *is* included in price.

Recent find on eBay.

I was reading a recent thread on the Serotta forum about the perils of eBay. The general sentiment seemed to be the various scams, shills and hassles make buying there not worth the trouble. I think it depends on what you're looking for and maybe a little luck - and using some common sense.


Sorry - but you won't find this one any longer. It's at my local bike shop getting a headset installed. (I've gotta get a headset press sometime.)

random pictures from Seattle

I took a few photos before my batteries died. No theme, just some random shots as I wandered around town after I finished work.






Some tough luck for one rider at the state CX championships.

For Lyen

Here's the 105 calipers... there's a picture of the 105 triple fr derailleur somewhere below

Picture of the Ritchey stems - click on image to get a bigger view.


The top one is newer 90*, painted silver. The bottom one is the Nitto Ritchey. It's chrome but has some wear, -17*. Has nicer welds and a touch of rust where the chrome has flaked.

RS

Just a couple of bike pics






Yeah - these are mine. All except number 4 which has moved on to the great northwest. Got a little crazy with the bike acquisition thing lately. Am I turning into one of those CR types that accumulates great (and not so great) bikes and then never rides them? I hope not. I seem to maintain some kind of inverse relationship with riding and buying bikes. When the saddle time goes down, the $ spent goes up. Not a healthy proposition - for my waistline or my bank account.

Can't explain the RS fixation. Guess they just click with me, aesthetically and philosophically. Of course the ride is there, but there's something else. Kinda feel the same way about Bontragers. Maybe I'll post some more photos after these are built (2&3).

recent bike rides

The heat in Atlanta lately has kept my riding to a minimum, but I was able to join a few short group rides this weekend and last.

The conclusion of the Intown Touring architecture ride, cut short by rain last month, was earlier today. Although coolish when we started at 9am, the sun broke through again and was mid 90's by the time I got back to my car. (yes - I drove to the start.)

No pics this time, but I did have two (!) flats.

Last week, a few friends and I had our occasional "vintage" ride - this time to Stone Mountain. I put vintage in quotes because the average age of the bikes on the outing was probably 30 years old. And that's only because of the 1940's Bianchi in attendance. Although not as vintage as some Cinelli/Masi-philes would like, this ride had some pretty choice iron.

Nick Z's new Peg - very sweet bike.

Roman's purple Richard Sachs

my yellow '87 Richard Sachs

1940's Bianchi

a closer look at that drivetrain

On the ride but no pictures: a pretty lugged Bianchi in the traditional celeste and Phil's (?) red DeRosa

Bike parts for sale - the prologue

Update 8/24/07 - Some pictures added, some descriptions changed.

I've decided that the minimum I can sell for is $20.00 plus shipping (probably $5.00 if it fits in a priority mail box). Not saying that everything (anything) listed is worth $20, just that I'm not going to ship a package for less than $20. If you've already sent me an email and I haven't replied back yet, I will soon. And as always, first come/first serve, no shoes, no shirt, no service. I'll work on prices and more items/pics next.



Various and miscellaneous bike parts for sale or trade:

As you can see, I haven't posted any prices yet. Haven't had time to sort it out. If you see something you want, give me a shout. I'm pretty busy right now, but I'll try to get back to you fairly quickly. I have some other parts I want to list and maybe take some photos but can't say when that'll be.


Trades? Don't know what I want/need yet except for a Campy 27.2 seatpost (recent) and Campy record/chorus derailleurs. Non-bike stuff too I guess. (?)

SOLD   Specialized 'Dirt Drop' stem, about 130 and + 20 rise, I think. Made by Nitto, anodized black but has faded to a pewter color. Has a slot for brake cable. Circa late 80's.



Cane Creek Ergo Stoker 'Dummy' Levers - NEW - these are dummy brake lever hoods typically used on a tandem's stoker bar. Also useful (one) if you use a single brake on a fixed gear but like to ride on the hoods.

SOLD   Shimano SPD 737 mtb pedals, XT level with large platform. Used on a road bike, VGC.

Have other parts as well - Ritchey quill stems, Control Tech and Bontrager seatposts, couple of handlebars, wheels in mostly used/good condition.

Also still have Ritchey Road Logic frame/fork and Fuso frame/fork. FUSO AND RITCHEY SOLD. See entry from June.

And considering selling one of my Bontrager CXs cyclocross bikes (medium).
$750 for the black, $500 for the silver - but only selling one. (price is frame/fork/headset on each)




***This is going to sound harsh -and I don't mean it to be- but if you're looking for bargain/free stuff, use eBay or find a garage sale. It's just not worth the time or frustration to haggle over $5.00 or make multiple trips to the post office to ship $10 worth of anything. That said, feel free to make an offer - I'm reasonable - but don't be insulted if I say no and be sure to consider shipping.

thanks,

update 8/25




In other news - I'm an uncle! Woohoo!!! My brother and sister-in-law just had their first baby today. No name yet, 5lbs 13oz baby boy with a full head of hair. A few weeks earlier than planned but a sweet and charming coincidence since this was our grandmother's birthday.

Congrats Donald and Colleen!
